Calculated collumn in a pivot table

Hello,

In a pivot table in the dimensions I have company names, in the the rows i have the years. This table shows the sales evolution.

How can I add a collumn at the end of the years to display the ratio of the last two years?

Thank you in advance!

If you have Years as columns (crossed field), then the only possibility I can think of (using the same chart and not creating a new one that is placed at the end of the first) is to use Dimensionality to define the expression that displays the ration of the last two years in the proper subtotal column. Check the QlikView help and play with that funtion in your table.

Your expression should be something like this:

If ( Dimensionality = X, Expression for the last tow years, Current Expression)

EDIT... Perhaps this little discussion can help you understand that function a little bit more:

Your solution seems to be perfect!

The only problem im having is that the period dimension is a concat of two fields and one of them is a string.

Find attached an example application.

I have added the last column in a separate straight table.
