How do I connect an Excel file to QlikView using Kondado?
▼
Start on the
Excel data source page, paste the OneDrive or SharePoint file address, and pick the worksheet you want to use. Then choose QlikView as the destination and complete the Via Kondado connection. The Spreadsheet (worksheet) pipeline will expose the Excel row number plus one normalized column for each header title.
What kinds of QlikView dashboards can I build from an Excel worksheet?
▼
You can build custom QlikView dashboards for budget versus actual reviews, campaign target tracking, sales activity summaries, and operations checklists. Use the worksheet columns to create filters by team, period, region, or owner, then compare planned and actual figures in one view. The Spreadsheet (worksheet) pipeline keeps each row traceable through the Excel row number, which helps when you review specific records.
How often can Kondado update Excel data in QlikView?
▼
You set the update frequency when you configure the connection, with options such as every 5 minutes, every 15 minutes, hourly, or daily. QlikView dashboards then refresh on that configurable schedule, so your team sees the latest worksheet data without rebuilding the app. For fast-moving operations, a 5-minute or 15-minute schedule keeps key totals close to current.
Which KPIs can I track in QlikView with Excel data?
▼
Common KPIs include target attainment, variance to budget, cost per campaign, average order value, headcount by department, and weekly sales totals. Because each header title becomes a normalized column, you can build KPI cards and trend charts directly from the worksheet. You can also compare periods and filter by owner, region, or product line to see where performance is ahead or behind.
Can I share QlikView dashboards built from Excel data with my team?
▼
Yes. Publish the QlikView app to your QlikView environment and assign access to the colleagues who need it. You can also send the same worksheet data to
Google Sheets if a lightweight shared view helps stakeholders review the numbers. This lets finance, marketing, and operations teams work from the same Excel-based dashboards.
Do I need to prepare my Excel worksheet before connecting it?
▼
Use a clear first filled row for your header titles, because that row becomes the column names in the Spreadsheet (worksheet) pipeline. Keep one header per column and place the data you want to visualize below it. Once the worksheet is connected, you can select it in Kondado and map it to QlikView without changing the original file structure.
Can I combine Excel worksheet data with other data sources in QlikView?
▼
Yes. Replicate the Excel worksheet into QlikView and combine it with other data sources you manage in Kondado. In QlikView you can associate the worksheet fields with those datasets to build broader views, like budget data next to campaign results or sales registries next to customer lists. Each data source follows the update schedule you configure.
Can I reuse a QlikView dashboard layout with different Excel files?
▼
Yes. You can reuse your own QlikView layout across Excel files when the worksheet headers follow the same structure. The Spreadsheet (worksheet) pipeline normalizes header titles, so charts and filters stay consistent as you swap files. This keeps your custom dashboards flexible for different budgets, trackers, or registries.
