Year over Year chart

Mon, 05 Oct 2015 12:54:25 GMT

Hello All,

I have an issue to make a year over year line chart.

I have a set of data at weeks/year level that I convert into date and then I want to make a chart showing the evolution year over year in %.

I tried some set analysis as the following but I didn't figure out to get the right result.

Sum({$<Date={">$(=vStart_Chart)"}>} Volume)

/Sum({$<Date={">$(=vMinDate)"}>} Volume) -1

Where vMinDate = Min(Date)

And vStart_Chart=AddMonths(vMinDate,12)

I also tried:

Sum({$<Date={">$(=vStart_Chart)"}>} Volume)

/Sum({$<Date={$(vShift_Date)}>} Volume) -1

Where vShift_Date = =AddMonths(Date,-12)

but it doesn't work anymore.

I think my problem is that I can't figure how to shift my data by 12 month or 52 weeks.

Somebody have a solution

Thank you for your help

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan

Make a Master Calender in the script to control the logic behinde your year to year comparason.

If it is ok, that your flags are static use script, if not use logic i set analysis see attached..

Thank you for your response, I will work on master calendar. But as I m working With PE edition I can't open your file, is there a solution ?

An issue that I figure out yesterday is that as I m comparing weeks vs weeks year before I can't just make minus 12 month because I set weeks date at the Sunday of the week.
