Loading Calculated Facts

Is it possible to load calculated 'Facts' when you are loading a table.  I have a table with the following fields and records:

[Drug Name] and [Repeat or Original]

Frusemide               Original

Frusemide               Repeat

Frusemide               Original

Frusemide               Original

Frusemide               Original

Frusemide               Repeat

Amlodipine              Original

Amlodipine              Original

Amlodipine              Original

Amlodipine              Repeat

Amlodipine              Repeat

Amlodipine              Original

i want to be able to load calculated fields based on the above records as follows:

  1. Total Prescriptions (TRx) which is an aggregate count of all Original and Repeat records for all [Drug Name] field
  2. New Prescriptions (NRX) which is an aggregate count of all Original only records for all [Drug Name] field
  3. Total Drug Prescriptions (TDRx) which is an aggregate count of all Original and Repeat records for a particular [Drug Name]
  4. New Drug Prescriptions (NDRx) which is an aggregate count of all Original only records for a particular [Drug Name]

if this is not possible, what is the alternative approach?

I hope my question is clear.  Thanking you in advance.

Regards

Chris

Hello

Many thanks, if i select current month in the calendar it is returning the correct TRx count but this value is the same as the year to date value calculated as follows:

Sum({$<$(vSetYTD)>} Aggr(TextCount([Repeat or Original]), [Drug Code]))

I do not know what is going on.

regards.

It will be great if you could post a sample file with expected numbers. That will help me and other members to give you prompt responses.

Hello Singh

I managed to figure it out.  I changed it to the following and it is now working:

Sum(Aggr(Count({$<$(vSetYTD)>} [Repeat or Original]), [Drug Code]))
