Ignore a filter on set analisis

Hello,

I have a chart that has various values by month. and I have a table that outputs the sum of everything. So I want to use a Month filter that affects the table without losing the chart data.

here is my equation:

=if(WildMatch(  [DRE.Competência]  ,'*2018*'),{<  [DRE.Competência]  =>}  [DRE.Competência]  )

this field is the dimension on the chart that refers to the Month. This equation gives me an error. So this is what i am using right now:

=if(WildMatch(  [DRE.Competência]  ,'*2018*'),   [DRE.Competência]  )

I want this field to not change even with a filter for it.

Thanks in advance!

may be try this?

= Only({< [DRE.Competência]= >} if(WildMatch(  [DRE.Competência]  ,'*2018*') >0,   [DRE.Competência]))

It doesn't work, 

this

= Only({< [DRE.Competência]= >} if(WildMatch(  [DRE.Competência]  ,'*2018*') >0,   [DRE.Competência]))

and this

= Only({< [DRE.Competência]= >} if(WildMatch(  [DRE.Competência]  ,'*2018*'),   [DRE.Competência]))

returns INVALID DIMENSION

but i will look into this ONLY function. thanks

Invalid dimension means there is some problem with the dimension name? Check if you using correct spelling or fieldname.

=if(WildMatch([DRE.Competência],'*2018*'),({<[DRE.Competência]= >}[DRE.Competência]),0)

May be :

=if(WildMatch([DRE.Competência],'*2018*'),Only([DRE.Competência]),0)

It didnt work.

The "only" function isn't what i want. I want to make the filter of this dimension not work on this chart. Like this:

filter:

DRE.Competência = jan/2018

on chart:

Shows all months from 2018.

So i just need a function that will ignore this field filter.

Thanks

Try with Dimension

=Aggr(Only({<[DRE.Competência]={"*2018*"}>}  [DRE.Competência]),[DRE.Competência])

It did nothing. The filter can still alter the chart with your function as dimension.
