Excluding dimension over expressions

Hi,

If any one can help

I have a combo chart with two dimension ( Time and an another one ) and two expressions

the second expression should only be related to the time dimension but not to the second one

I don't know if i'm clear or not !

Thanks,

D.Sadki

may be this is an alternative...see Sheet1 in attachment. now, there are two options -

1. have 8 expressions in each of the two charts. - easiest to implement and shouldn't be too hard to maintain.

2. create a table with expression name and the actual expression in excel and read it in. then have a list box for expression name and you can update the two charts to display one expression at a time. easier to maintain.

edit: upon additional thought, i think option 1 is better as option to will need you to get a little creative.

For example if your second expression is country,

you have to put in your second expression to don't take into account country

Sum({<Country=>} Sales)

Hi Djallel,

Can you post an application with some test data and your chart? And if is possible your expected result.

It will be useful to resolve your issue.

Best Regards,

François

You can use the TOTAL key word to bypass dimensions so e.g.

Sum(TOTAL <YourDimension> Sales)

Did you use the correct dimension within the < >, it should be your first time dimension

Sum(TOTAL <Time> Sales)
