rank,aggr,dynamic dimension in a chart

Hi,

  Everyone,I met a problem in below pic:

When I make a choose '2' with yellow color in the char "SelectBoard",then four CustID appear, not the correct number '2'

The corrent appearance is like below,

So could anyone know the reason or a solution? !

When you 'select' a value in an expression cell then you don't select that expression value, but you select all the dimension values used to calculate the expression value. That's one reason why you get that selection you see. There's no solution for that. You cannot select expression values.

If you make selections in a chart, you are basically selecting in the dimension values your grid cell is grouped by.

In your case, you are using calculated dimensions based on CustID, hence you are making selections in CustID (even if you don't see it in the chart, since you are also using set analysis to ignore CustID selections.

Create a list box for CustID and you will see the effect when selecting in your chart cell.

thanks for your reply, but I donnot think so.  You may take a test  :  remove the rank function,then it works.

So,I think  RANK function is the reason, that it doesn't support the Pivot table enough.

Because, You have association with All CustID, See this Image

This Case, If you want to show same as your Graph, you can use this

Year1 Expression             sum({<Year1, CustID={'C002','C005'}>}QTY)

Year2 Expression             sum({<Year2, CustID={'C002','C005'}>}QTY)

Now, Image looks like this
