How can I create table with two different total by one dimension?

Hi,

Yes, that's possible. It's easiest to create new field for this in the script:

Periods:

LOAD * INLINE [

Period, Month

January, January

February, February,

....etc

December, December

Total Jan-June, January

Total Jan-June, February

...etc

Total Jan-June, June

Total, January

Total, February,

....etc

Total, December

];

Then use the new Period field instead of Month as dimension in your pivot table.

Hi Nick!

May be the solution of Gysbert is better than mine! But...

If you don't want to work on the scrip, I would suggest two chart-tables:

One first: a pivot table with Year and Month as dimensions and the expression =Sum(values). Feel free to mark "Show Partial Sums" to both dimensions (on Presentation tab) to see the totals. Example:

One second: a Straight Table with Year as the only dimension and the following expressions:

As you can see, I have used set analysis to set the intervals of months.

Hope it helps!

Best regards,

Marcello
