in order to predict the amount may occur.

The relational of “Date” and “Date – previous period” has done,

Hi Nina,

sorry, I can't help there - would be very interesting to know how this works.

AfaIk, Set_analysis will not work here as that is only calculated once before the chart is displayed.

You cannot make it dynamic so that your expressions will, for a given period (dimension), use the value of the period before.

You might try with the aggr() function. That helped me a bit further, though I never quite made it - or rather, I had to abandon it for it was taking me too much time. - Or, if it's not too much data you have to display, try using the PREVIOUS fct. (after a SORT) in the script so you have a native field for the "period_before"

Best regards,
