if Item Number is not one of the Dimension in ur chart then

sum(aggr(sum ([List Price (SEK)] /[BaselistPrice(SEK)] ), [Item number])))

Note that u dnt need Qty in both the Numerator and Denominator as they will cancel out.

If Item Number is a dimension, then you can simply do sum([List Price (SEK)] /[BaselistPrice(SEK)] )

Thanks for the tip

Hi i have attached a picture below of the problem i am facing, I can work out the first varians in the table.

([List Price (SEK)] - [BaselistPrice(SEK)] / BaselistPrice(SEK)]

however am looking an expression that can even work when Article number is not shown and you pivot down through other dimensions like Year varians and Customer (see below).

Best,

Bradley

hi,

i see that u're getting the sums right except for the BaseList(SEK) due to null values.

There're quite a few methods to solve this.

The best is to do it in script for the field [BaseList(SEK)]:

if(isnull([BaseList(SEK)],0,[BaseList(SEK)]) as [BaseList(SEK)]

try this and let me know if u get what u need
