Hello UG -

See this example - attached.

If(getselectedcount(Year)<>1, Sum({<Year={"$(=max( Year ))"}>} Sales ),
Sum({<Year={"$(=getfieldselections( Year ))"}>} Sales ))

In this example - I was just trying to simulated the selection for This Year for Last

However - there may be a better way to achieve this, what is your use case?

I've been struggling with the same problem because I don't like long nested ifs. And finally I used function GetObjectDimension().
