Set analysis reference to each table's dimension or PICK/IF?

Hi everyone,

Still writing here, though ChatGPT is already solving many of the problems. But here also looking to your perspectives, not only get some useful code.

I have some batches, manufactured yearly and I need to see their cost per year. So I need to see the "batch-2015" cost for 2015,2016 etc. Four years ahead. I can do it with pivot as below, but I was trying to find a more elegant/flexible solution.

See below.

I tried with Set analysis, but I think it is not possible. For example 

 

 

sum({<Year = {$(=right(BatchName,4)))} >} Cost)

 

 

 

Any idea how should I approach this? Should I do it in pivot, or straight table with conditional logic (PICK/IF)?

Thanks in afvance

I think it shouldn't be solved within the UI else within the data-model. For example with something like this:

...
CostYear - BatchStartYear + 1 as #Year
...

which just calculates the offset between the years.
