Multiple alternate states in single expression

Hi Team,

I need to use below formula with alternate states

Sum(A*B)

where A is coming from State1 and B is coming from State2.

Is it possible to use two alternate state in single sum function?

Sorry..It should be 159..

Value for Column A For FY 2017 = 5,7

Value for Column B For FY 2016 = 15 12

So (5*15)+(7*12) = 75+84=159

How did you choose to multiply 5 with 15 and 7 with 12... why not (5*12) + (7*15)... this is what I am trying to understand here? Is there a common dimension between 5 and 15 and 7 and 12?

Yes..You are right..I didn't take the dimensions in sample...But it will choose according to common dimensions.

This works

=Sum(Aggr(Sum({$*test1}A)*Sum({$*test2}B), CommonDim))

Added the commondim in your sample to show how it will work

LOAD * INLINE [

    FY, A, B, CommonDim

    2016, 13, 15, 1

    2016, 10, 12, 2

    2017, 5, 6, 1

    2017, 7, 8, 2
