Hi,

Try this.

First of all you need to create a new table with a agregation Sales per Quarter, then try use the peek function to create the new field "Previous Qtr Sales" and create another with the diference like this:

A:
LOAD Year,
Quarter,
Sales,
Product,
Customer
FROM
[C:\Users\rmlima\Desktop\Sample data.xlsx]
(ooxml, embedded labels, header is 1 lines, table is Sheet1);

B:
NoConcatenate
LOAD
*,
[Current Qtr Sales] - [Previous Qtr Sales];
load
*,
if(IsNull( Peek('Current Qtr Sales',-1)),0,Peek('Current Qtr Sales',-1)) as [Previous Qtr Sales]
;
LOAD
Quarter as QuarterB,
sum(Sales) as [Current Qtr Sales]
Resident A
Group by Quarter
Order By Quarter asc;

Hi Ruben,

Thanks for your quick response.

I forgot to mention that there are many other fields in the data set and need to handle that in UI only.

Thanks,

You can create aggregation by as many fields as you want.
In group by you can add more fields.

Is this your question?

Hi Ruben,

I will try that, Is there any way to handle in front end rather than in scripting.

Thanks,

Hi,

if i understand what you want, i think yes, you can make this aggregation in front end:

Sum(Aggr(Sum(Sales), Quarter,etc))

However I do not advise that it be done in front end. the best practice is develop in script.

Regards,
