Pivot table rolling sum with multiple dimensions

Hi all,

I have following pivot table.

Body Style Color Date
Type Size Size0 Size1 Size2 Size3 Size4 Size5 Size6 Size7 Size8 Size9 Size10 Size11 Size12 Size13 Size14 Size15
5351N BC5351 003 9/5/2012 Qty POS
0 0 0 968 1936 1936 968 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Rolling Qty POS
0 0 0 968 1936 1936 968 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
9/6/2012 Qty SM
0 0 0 497 784 837 469 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Rolling Qty SM
0 0 0 497 784 837 469 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

I would like to get rolling sum working. Im using following expressions so that at each date I have the Rolling Quantity Sum.

Qty: sum(SUMMARY.Quantity)

RollingQty: RangeSum (above(sum(SUMMARY.Quantity),0,RowNo()))

These formulas work when I don't use Type as Dimension.

Body Style Color Date Size Size0 Size1 Size2 Size3 Size4 Size5 Size6 Size7 Size8 Size9 Size10 Size11 Size12 Size13 Size14 Size15
5351N BC5351 003 9/5/2012 Qty 0 0 0 968 1936 1936 968 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Rolling Qty 0 0 0 968 1936 1936 968 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
9/6/2012 Qty 0 0 0 497 784 837 469 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Rolling Qty 0 0 0 1465 2720 2773 1437 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

I realize that adding Type changes the way RowNo() behaves since we always get 1 as return value. I've tried sum(Total Summary.Quantity) however that doesn't have the outcome I'm expecting since at the next body/style I need to restart the rolling sum.

All help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Grif

Try using:

RangeSum (above(TOTAL sum(SUMMARY.Quantity),0,RowNo(TOTAL)))

Hi MSheraton,

The only problem with this formula is that the rolling sum does not reset to zero when the color or the style changes.

For example when color changes from 003 to 004 the rolling Qty for color 004 should be 756 for size 3 and NOT 2221. It almost as if I want to use TOTAL but depend on the color as my breakdown.

Hi Grif,

I'm confused to what you're trying to achive. 

Can you create an example table showing exactly how you'd expect the pivot table to look with the data you've already provided?

=aggr(RangeSum (above(sum(SUMMARY.Quantity),0,RowNo())), SUMMARY.body, SUMMARY.style, Color, Datex)

Hi Whiteline,

I tried your expression however its not giving me the result I want. Please refere to attached document.

Hi Mark,

I've attached the document. Please have a look at the top table. This is the outcome I want however I'm missing a Type dimension since when I add this dimention the expression doesn't work.

Hi Grif,

whiteline gave the correct answer.

You incorrectly implmented it as

=aggr(RangeSum (above(sum(SUMMARY.Quantity),0,RowNo())), SUMMARY.body, SUMMARY.style, SUMMARY.color, SUMMARY.Date, SUMMARY.TransType,SUMMARY.SizeCode)

Try it again but drop  (SUMMARY.TransType,SUMMARY.SizeCode)

ie:

AGGR(RangeSum (above(sum(SUMMARY.Quantity),0, RowNo())),SUMMARY.body,SUMMARY.style,SUMMARY.color,SUMMARY.Date)

Unfortinately, it seems that it doesn't work correctly.

I think because of using above() with aggr. It arragens the table some other way than the pivot does it.

For example it always uses load order to sort data.

Alos as I understand to drop SUMMARY.SizeCode dimension is not the case.

I tried dropping SizeCode and Type but it does not produce the desired result.

Whiteline if Pivot table doesn't work well with aggr then is there a way to get similar table (maybe a simple table)
