Sum SET expression doesn't work.

Hi everyone! Can anyone please tell me why the following expression doesn't work:

Sum({$<A={'x'},B={$(vMonth)}>}C) - Sum({$<A={'x'},B={$(vMonth)}>}D)

Each of the Sum({$<A={'x'},B={$(vMonth)}>}C) expressions work independently, but the minus operation doesn't do anything. What am I missing? I'm pretty sure this is the correct syntax to use for this operation, and I get no error messages. The result I get is that the last Sum expression isn't counted and it's as if only the first Sum expression exists.

Which object are you using this expression in? Does it work in a kpi object?

Yes, but I've also tried it in a table with the same result. I also set the displaying options of the value to use 9 decimals, so I don't think the size is an issue either.

I meant it for different granularity but size. Could you share a sample app to have a look ?
