Hi

     Use like this

           =Sum({<Year = {$(vT)}>}budget cost) Where vT = max(Year)

          =Sum({<Year = {$(vT1)}>}budget cost) Where vT1 = max(Year)-1

     Hope it helps

thanks for your reply.

i have followed your instruction-

please let me know whether is the following steps is ok or not

1)created two variables a)vT(for current year)  b)vT1(prev year),

2)created two more variables two holding this

=Sum({<Year = {$(vT)}>}budget cost) Where vT = max(Year)

=Sum({<Year = {$(vT1)}>}budget cost) Where vT1 = max(Year)-1

3)from the barchart select those variable name.

Hi

     Can you explain third point? Not sure, what is that?

Hi

     Yes, Use both expression ..

     1st: =Sum({<Year = {$(vT)}>}budget cost)

     2nd: =Sum({<Year = {$(vT1)}>}budget cost)

     Hope it helps

Hi,

You need to create the variable with values as below

vT should have value of =Max(YearFieldName) which gets the selected year

vT1 should have value of =Max(YearFieldName)-1 which gets the previous year

YearFieldName should be dimension.

Expression for the budget cost for current year and previous year

=Sum({<YearFieldName={$(=vT),$(=vT1)}>} budgetCost) for budget cost

=Sum({<YearFieldName={$(=vT),$(=vT1)}>} actualCost) for actual cost

=Sum({<YearFieldName={$(=vT),$(=vT1)}>} budgetCost)/Sum({<YearFieldName={$(=vT),$(=vT1)}>} actualCost) - 1 for margin
