Hello! Can someone explain me, please, why does
LET vMonthStart=MonthStart(max(Date));
//Date is a field of previously loaded table
cause a script line error?
Regards,
Alexa
It seems correct statement check the date format of Date field
try for check
=MonthStart(max(Today()))

Anand, thak you for your answer!
I tried to fix it..
With code like this
TempTable1: |
LOAD
Max( Date) as MaxDate |
Resident FACT;
Let vMaxDateNum = Num( Peek( 'MaxDate', 0, 'TempTable1'));
Let vMaxDate = Date( $(vMaxDateNum));
LET vMonthStart=MonthStart(FieldValue('MaxDate', 1));
LET vPeriod=$(vMaxDate)-$(vMonthStart);
I get another error "script line error LET vPeriod=08.12.2014-01.12.2014"
Hi
Let evaluates the statement on the RHS before assigning it to the variable. Max(Date) is not a legal statement in script mode outside of a LOAD, so this statement is causing an error.
Your error in the second post - you need quotes around the date variables:
LET vPeriod='$(vMaxDate)'-'$(vMonthStart)';

Hello,Jonathan! thanks for explanation!!
I made it as you wrote. Now I dont get an error? but it doesnt calculate Period=(
TempTable1: |
LOAD
Max( Date) as MaxDate |
Resident FACT;
Let vMaxDateNum = Num( Peek( 'MaxDate', 0, 'TempTable1'));
Let vMaxDate = Date( $(vMaxDateNum));
TempTabl2:
Load MonthStart(FieldValue('MaxDate', 1)) as MonthStart,
MonthEnd(FieldValue('MaxDate', 1)) as MonthEnd
resident TempTable1;
Let vMonthStartNum = round(Num( Peek( 'MonthStart', 0, 'TempTable2')));
Let vMonthEndNum= round(Num( Peek( 'MonthEnd', 0, 'TempTable2')));
LET vPeriod='$(vMaxDateNum )'-'$(vMonthStartNum)';
LET vDaysMonth='$(vMonthEndNum)'-'$(vMonthStartNum)';
with code like this thats what I see
Hi
You have changed the definition of the two variables to numbers, so you no longer need expansions and quotes. I think you have a trailing space in the Let vPeriod statement that is causing your problem
Simplify these two statements to:
LET vPeriod = vMaxDateNum - vMonthStartNum;
LET vDaysMonth = vMonthEndNum - vMonthStartNum;
