no what I meant is lets say If I have another field called State and I want to use the same metrics for the filed of  'GA' for example

Something like

=Sum({<State={'GA'}>} Amount)

/

Sum({< State ={'GA'}> } TOTAL <Year> Amount)


its not working??

I guess create a new field from Sales Date. -> Year([Sales Date]) as [Sales Year]



And then use Year as your 1st dimension and Sales Year as second dimension


Expression:

Sum(Amount)/Sum(TOTAL <Year> Amount)

But if you look at the  sketch I need to group the previous 2 years as one block and anything older then 3 yrs as a seperate block

May be create a flag in the script:


If(Year = Year([Sales Date]) or Year = Year([Sales Date]) + 1, Year([Sales Date]), Dual('<=' & (Year -2), (Year - 2))) as [Sales Year]


And then then same two dimensions and try the same expression

Got it, one last question.  I am still not able to do the 3 stacks, so if Year is 2016 I would like to see

Stack 1  Sale Year = Year

Stack 2  Sale Year = Year-1 and Year -2

Stack 3  Sale Year <= Year -3

All 3 stacks should add up to 100%

Above image is showing three stacks and they are adding up to 100%. Did you follow the similar logic in the script?
