Help with a straight table calculation

Greetings :

I have a straight table that looks like this :

SalesRep(Dim)Year(Dim)Month(Dim)SalesLevelA(Exp) SalesLevelB(Exp)PreviousMonthSalesLevelA(Exp)
Bob2013

12

100.00200.00

Need sales form 11/2013 remove to keep it simple

Bob20141400.00

2300.00

100.00
Bob20142323.003233.00400.00
Mary201312701.00605.00Need sales form 11/2013 remove to keep it simple
Mary20131323.00415.00701.00

My Question is how do I get the data to populate the PreviousMonthSalesLevelA(Expression).

When I do it in a set expression like: Sum({$<Posting_PeriodID={'=$(CurrentPeriodID - 1)'}>} Amount)

I end up getting a total on every row that matches August which right now is the current period -1.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can't use set analysis (at least not easily) this way. The set is calculated at the chart level, not row level. See this document for more information: Calculating rolling n-period totals, averages or other aggregations

That is interesting, but I am still confused on how to tell it I do not want to accumulate but just display the previous rows amount.
