Hi,

I want to show sales between the start_date and end_date. Both start_date and end_date are variables and these are text boxes

Now want to call both the variables in chart by writing expression using set analysis.

I want when user will select an event and will select a corresponding even date (lastDate)

now if user wants to  know the sales on  pre event date ie sales before 10 days with respect to selected date

and after once we get the date in text box that date will become starting date and last date will be as an event date

so I need to write an expression for start date and end date in pivot chart. How to write an expression?

Hi Sakshi, there is no data to test in this sample. In reduce data you can select keep possible values to at least have some data to play.

Anyway, the answer should be closer to:

Sum({<Start_Date={">=$(vLastYearDate)<=$(vCurrentYearDate)"}>} MetricField)

vLastYearDate is a variable with value: =Date('$(vCurrentYearDate)'-$(vComparisonDays))

vCurrentYearDate is a variable with value: =Date(lastDate)
