3 Steps to Fix Circular References in Qlik Sense

Circular references in Qlik Sense occur when multiple paths connect tables, leading to ambiguous relationships. This issue commonly arises with similarly named fields like “city” or “date,” causing confusion in the data model.

3 Simple Steps to Fix Circular References

1. Identify the Problem: Locate fields with identical names causing unintended connections.
2. Rename Fields: Assign unique names to these fields based on their context (e.g., “Fan Club City”).
3. Reload Data: Reimport the tables into Qlik Sense to resolve the relationships.
