How to write set analysis using Addmonth() ?

[mohan_1105]

Hi,

I wanted to calculate the # of transaction from one month before the particular date and one month after the particular date irrespective of year. To explain it well, Let the particular date be 14-May-1995. You have a transaction data, I need to find whether the customer had any transaction in date between 14-Apr to 14-Jun in all year.

I followed this thread, Using date ranges in set analysis and taken some Inputs. In a straight table, I wrote the set analysis as follows,

count({$<[Bill.DDMM] = {">=(Date(addmonths(max([DOB]), -1), 'DD-MM'))<=(Date(addmonths(max([DOB]), 1), 'DD-MM'))"}>} distinct Year(BillDate)) it doesn't worked.

To check my Date field, I wrote the if condition as follows,

if([Bill.DDMM] > Date(addmonths(max([DOB]), -1), 'DD-MM') and [Bill.DDMM] < Date(addmonths(max([DOB]), 1), 'DD-MM'),1,0) it works fine. I came to know that there is something wrong with my set analysis. It taking my time to rectify the problem. Please help !!

Thanks in Advance!!

May be try this

Count({$<[Bill.DDMM] = {">=$(=Date(AddMonths(Max([DOB]), -1), 'DD-MM'))<=$(=Date(AddMonths(Max([DOB]), 1), 'DD-MM'))"}>} DISTINCT Year(BillDate))

Try this.

count({$<[Bill.DDMM] = {">=$(=Date(addmonths(max([DOB]), -1), 'DD-MM'))<=$(=Date(addmonths(max([DOB]), 1), 'DD-MM'))"}>} distinct Year(BillDate))

What is the expected output and in what type of object?

Hi sunny,

I am doing it in the straight table. Expected is straight forward in my expression which I wrote in question. To be more clear, To calculate How many years he purchased with me near to his DOB date.

Thanks!!

I was hoping to see a numeric form of output and not expressional form of output

Try this

Count(DISTINCT Aggr(If(SetDateYear(BillDate, Today()) >= AddMonths(SetDateYear(DOB, Today()), -1) and SetDateYear(BillDate, Today()) <= AddMonths(SetDateYear(DOB, Today()), 1), Year(BillDate)), CustomerCode, BillDate, DOB))

Or this

Count(DISTINCT Aggr(If(SetDateYear(BillDate, Today()) >= AddMonths(SetDateYear(DOB, Today()), -1) and SetDateYear(BillDate, Today()) <= AddMonths(SetDateYear(DOB, Today()), 1), Year(BillDate)), CustomerCode, BillDate))
