Use graph dimension in a measure formula

Hello,

I am currently trying to use a graph dimension to make condition inside a measure.

Here is some data for testing :

Machine table

Machine	Category	Creation Date
P2XQ5NSIAQ	type01	03/05/2013
CT4P9LIHCT	type01	16/08/2013
BLJT3F32S1	type01	17/01/2014
LW26RJG4AN	type01	29/11/2015
7CC3HFWQ5K	type01	11/01/2019
V2UFGK759O	type01	09/03/2019
898JG2HJS2	type01	25/06/2019
46NHQOIGA9	type02	02/08/2013
RHYQHJS3Y4	type02	15/02/2019
GNA1XO9P6S	type02	21/03/2019
6XYD3QXROZ	type02	28/03/2019
YQKQLVKNIO	type03	22/04/2013
7MR5HSHK4B	type03	24/01/2019
VKLH70YTPB	type03	04/02/2019
DS9B1TK0ZX	type04	13/12/2013
SQJW7SS8AY	type04	07/04/2014
FJ5BL5DPFG	type04	25/11/2015
NSDKXCJEY6	type04	09/09/2018
I2D0NBEETX	type04	10/03/2019
A4P19TZXQ5	type04	26/07/2019

Tranz table

Date_tranz

janv-19

févr-19

mars-19

I need to count how many machine I already have for each categories by Date_tranz. So I need to to put the dimension Date_tranz and do a measure like this : count({<category={'type01'}>} Machine).</category={'type01'}>

This measure count all the machine and I want to exclude machines that have Creation Date more recent than Date_tranz, since these machines does not exist at that time.

Does anyone know if it is possible, please ?

Best regards.

Hi,

Can you show us your Data Model Viewer? Is there a link between Machine Table and Tranz Table?

Hello Jordy,

The data between the Machine Table and Tranz Table are not related, the Tranz table is just a table with a period of months that I have chosen.

I am trying to compare Creation Date from the Machine Table with the Date tranz to check if the Creation Date of a machine is older than the Date tranz to be sure that the machined existed at this date. I wish, if possible, to add this condition on top of the count that I have mentionned before : count({<category={'type01'}>} Machine).

Thanks,

Clément.

Hi Clément,

Check the attachment for the application. I've added a column with MonthYear, your Date tranz. Resulting in:

Hello Jordy,

Thanks you but this is not the result I am looking for. I am supposed to have the dimension Date_tranz to know the quantity of machines by types during the period defined in Date_tranz. The bar chart should also be cumulative because the machine parc increase following the Creation Date.

Regards.

Clément.

That is no problem, you can create another table with Date_tranz and a key to MonthYear. This way you can make your own period.

About the bar chart, check the following attach example, is this what you want?

Hello Jordy,

Thank you Jordy, that's exactly what I wanted.

I am gonna add a filter on the Creation Date to show only the data on the period in the Date_tranz.

Best regards,

Clément
