Hi,

We can't directly use master item in other expressions. Maybe we need to use full calculated dimension in other expression as well.

Hi Nagamani,

you can use the set expression to compare two calculated dimensions, but give more information or screenshot of your expected output

Hi Nagamani,

You can create variables and compare or else straight away, use the calculated dimension (expressions) for comparing purpose.

Ex: I have two variables varMaxDate = 7/26/2017 and varMinDate = 3/1/2017.

I used these two variables in an expression to compare i.e. if($(varMaxDate) > $(varMinDate), 'Max', 'Min')
