What is the best way to create this type of variable? I heard putting an = before a variable expression is bad in the UI?
Hello all,
Is it bad to put an = before an expression inside a variable in the user interface?
For example:
In Variables Overview:
I create a variable called:
vVariableMonth
Inside I put: =Month(Date)
Then I want to use this variable in Set Analysis:
Sum(Month={$(vMonth)}Sales)
What is the best way to write a set analysis like this in terms of performance when using a variable?
I heard putting an = before the expression is bad in the user interface because it impacts the performance. But I am not sure whether this is right or not.
AFAIK there is no performance impact if a equal-sign is used or not - but the context in which it is used is very important. See for it: The Little Equals Sign.
