Quick Question

jadams123 — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hi All:

Question 1:

I want too:

if (today -1) = mon then 0, if (today -1) = tue then 2, if (today -1) = wed then 3...and so on

Question 2:

I want to be able to do this:

How can I group:

1) Group anything other than CX1, CX2, CX3, CX4 in "Other CX type East"

2) Group anything other than CX5, CX6, CX7, CX8 in "Other CX type West"

and so on...

Group	Customer Type	Sales
EAST	CX1	$100.00
EAST	CX2	$200.00
EAST	CX3	$300.00
EAST	CX4	$400.00
EAST	Other CX Type EAST	$500.00
Total EAST		$1,500.00
WEST	CX5	$600.00
WEST	CX6	$700.00
WEST	CX7	$800.00
WEST	CX8	$900.00
EAST	Other CX Type WEST	$500.00
Total West		$3,500.00

This is my current formula. This obviously just shows sales for CX's

= Sum( {$<GLYEAR = {2017},

CUSTOMER_TYPE = { CX1, CX2, CX3, CX4, CX5, CX7, CX8 },

CREDIT_CODE = {YES}>} AMOUNT )

Thanks,

May be below? Question 1 and Question 2 you can create something like:

LOAD ....,

Pick(Match(WeekDay(Today()-1), 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat', 'Sun'), 0,1,2,3,4,5,6) AS DayNo,

IF(Group = 'EAST' AND Not Match(CustomerType, 'CX1','CX2','CX3','CX4'), 'Other CX Type EAST',

IF(Group = 'WEST' AND Not Match(CustomerType, 'CX5','CX6','CX7','CX8'), 'Other CX Type WEST')) AS AS NewCustTypeField

FROM ....;

I am not a developer...I can only do calculated fields... first formula work but the second formula is not working..

= Sum( {$<GLYEAR = {2017},

if(CBT = {'EAST'} AND Not Match(CUSTOMER_TYPE_DESCRIPTION = {'CX1',CX2".....}), 'Other Customet Type),

CREDITCODE = {YES}>} AMOUNT )

OK can you share your sample app your are working on. You need to differentiate to which Group this CustomerType should be linked. Just in your Load script you have to add this IF statement.

Not sure I can I share...QV is on my work computer

Can you post some sample data onto excel and share. With your expected output.

Not sure but this may fit in to find the solution at front end only -

It looks like you want to create synthetic dimension from your current customer type dimension. If you are sure that you would have only 10 final dimension values in your output (CX1..4, CX5..8, 'Other CX Type EAST' and Other CX Type WEST) then you can use valuelist() to create synthetic dimension.

Dimension -

=Valuelist('CX1','CX2','CX3','CX4','Other CX Type EAST','CX5','CX6','CX7','CX8','Other CX Type WEST')

Expression -

Pick(Match(Valuelist('CX1','CX2','CX3','CX4','Other CX Type EAST','CX5','CX6','CX7','CX8','Other CX Type WEST'),

'CX1','CX2','CX3','CX4','Other CX Type EAST','CX5','CX6','CX7','CX8','Other CX Type WEST'),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX1'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX2'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX3'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX4'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {"=if(Match(CUSTOMER_TYPE,'CX1','CX2','CX3','CX4')=0 and Group='EAST'"}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX6'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX7'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX8'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {'CX9'}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ),

Sum({$<GLYEAR={2017},CUSTOMER_TYPE = {"=if(Match(CUSTOMER_TYPE,'CX5','CX6','CX7','CX8')=0 and Group='WEST'"}, CREDIT_CODE = {'YES'}>} AMOUNT ))

You would need to format set expression to make them workable.

Check this? I copied your table data onto Excel sheet. What is your data source is that Excel or some other data bases?

Table1:

LOAD [Customer Code],

[Customer Type],

[Customer Type2],

SalesField,

Year

FROM

[..\Desktop\Sample1.xls]

(biff, embedded labels, table is Sheet1$);

its a database.

Re: Quick Question

vishsaggi — Thu, 01 Jun 2017 20:39:04 GMT

Can you run your database query and attach your qvw file where you have the problem?

Re: Quick Question

jadams123 — Sat, 03 Jun 2017 19:39:55 GMT

I think this was getting too complicated.

I figured it out.

I created a calculated dim...if(customer type =XYZ, then .... elseif 'Other Customer Type'.

Instead of Other Customer Type east/west e.tc
