Set analysis with long list of conditions

Hello,

I have a table containing a list of dimensions called Segments. There are 65 segments called S0001, S0002, S0003 ... S0065.

I need to filter my sum by some of these segments. There are three main measures:

  • Internal Segments -> S0001 - S0022
  • External Segments -> S0023 - S0050
  • Other Segments -> S0051 - S0065

I am currently using simple and shorter measures with following expression: 

=sum({<segment_id={'S0001', 'S0002', 'S0003','S0004'}>}line_amount)

This will become troublesome and very long when I add all the segments. Especially because at a later stage, other dimensions will be added (ex: Group, G0001 - G0100 etc).

How could I facilitate or automate this expression? I was exploring using a Right(segment_id,2) < 23 for instance, but it does not seem to work. I can't handle the syntax.

I am at this point not willing to create flags in the script due to constraints given by the client.

 

Thanks!

=sum({<segment_id={"=Num(Right(segment_id,2)) > 23  AND Num(Right(segment_id,2)) < 50"}>}line_amount)

May be like:

=sum({<segment_id={"=Num(Right(segment_id,2)) < 23"}>}line_amount)

Nice, this seems to work properly!

How would you apply the condition for the segment id to be between 23 & 50?
