What does the RowNo function return?

The RowNo function in Qlik Sense returns an integer that represents the position of the current row in the context of the data being processed. This function is especially useful when working with loaded data in a script or when generating reports, as it enables users to understand the order of their dataset.

When you utilize the RowNo function, it provides a sequential numbering starting from 1 for each row that is returned in the dataset. This is beneficial for sorting, analyzing, or manipulating data based on its position. Hence, the value returned by RowNo corresponds directly to the row's order within the current context of data manipulation or display, making option B the correct choice.

Other options do not accurately describe what the RowNo function does. The function does not count distinct values in a column, provide the total number of records, or generate unique identifiers for each row. Instead, it is focused specifically on the ordinal position of rows within the dataset.
