QLIK SENSE BUSINESS ANALYST (QSBA) EXAM PRACTICE
QUESTIONS COMPLETE WITH 100% VERIFIED ANSWERS

allow users to compare current year sales against previous year sales
within the same visualization. Which Qlik Sense feature should the
analyst use to meet this requirement?
A. Bookmarks
B. Alternate states
C. Set analysis
D. Variables
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Set analysis allows users to create expressions that evaluate
data against different selection states within the same visualization. This
enables side-by-side comparison of current year versus previous year
sales without changing the user's active selections.
2. A business analyst needs to present a one-slide story and must
enable selections within a visualization on that slide. How should the
business analyst meet this requirement?
A. Create a story and add a sheet from the sheet library that contains
the visualization
B. Create a story, add a blank slide, and embed a snapshot of the
visualization
,C. Create a story and embed a bookmark to link back to the visualization
D. Create a story with a text box containing navigation links
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: When you add a sheet from the sheet library to a story, the
sheet remains interactive, allowing users to make selections within the
visualization. Snapshots are static and do not support selections.

calendar measures with company-specific naming conventions. The

calendar measures

Correct Answer: A, B, C
Rationale: To create quarterly calendar measures, the analyst should
right-click the Sales field, select Create calendar measures, choose Date
and Sales fields with Sum aggregation, select Quarterly interval, then
save and rename the master items accordingly.
5. A retailer with 300 locations worldwide needs to analyze revenue to
prepare for its next board meeting. The retailer needs to view the
distribution of its total revenue by continent and country. A business
analyst has created a bar chart that provides a drill-down option from

in one chart without drill-down or scrolling. Which visualization should
the analyst use?
A. Combo chart
B. Treemap
C. Grouped bar chart
D. Pivot table
, Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A treemap displays hierarchical data in a single view without
requiring drill-down or scrolling. It can show continent-level and

desktop computers, tablets, and mobile devices. When creating the

C. User-friendly analytics
D. Associative selection model

allows apps to be consumed on desktops, tablets, and mobile devices
without requiring device-specific development.
