All,
I am using a varible to select a date, a point in time. I have created a chart that calculates the LAST transaction BEFORE that date for each Company / Product Combination. This is working as it should (in the example it is showing the last date being the 2nd or the 3rd
=Max({<IndexDate = {'<$(=Date(vDateFrom))'}>}IndexDate)
I then want to look at the sum of the sales that happened on that date, and this is where I'm having the issue
=Sum({<IndexDate={'$(=Date(Max({<IndexDate = {'<$(=Date(vDateFrom))'}>}IndexDate)))'}>}Sales)
It is only doing the calculation at a global, not at the company / product level as above (i.e. only doing the calculation for the sales on the 3rd
Please see attached for details. I dont know if I need to reference the previous column (I understand this cant be done) or do some sort of aggr function, but nothing I've tried works and I dont understand why this one doesn't
I want it to show
Company Product Last Trans Date Sales on that Date
ABC Ltd Product 1 03/01/2017 9000
ABC Ltd Product 2 02/01/2017 1000
XYZ Ltd Product 1 02/01/2017 7000
XYZ Ltd Product 2 03/01/2017 13000
Thanks,
Karl
May be use something like below
Expression
1)
Max({<IndexDate = {'<$(=Date(vDateFrom))'}>}IndexDate)
2)
FirstSortedValue({<IndexDate = {'<$(=Date(vDateFrom))'}>}Aggr(SUM({<IndexDate = {'<$(=Date(vDateFrom))'}>}Sales),IndexDate,Company,Product),-Aggr(IndexDate,IndexDate,Company,Product))
what is the variable values?
The idea is that you can enter any date you like and can look at the most recent transaction before that date. In my example I've set vDateFrom to be 05/01/2017
Hi,
Please find attached the app with the correct formula
Youssef,
Thank you very much, but that shows me the sum of all transactions lbefore the selected date, I need to only see the sum of the transactions on the last date before the selected date. This will be different for each Company / Product combination
Thats what I see on the table.. what is the wrong value ?
You can use this expression for sales:
max({<IndexDate = {'<$(=Date(vDateFrom))'} >}Sales)
For example,
Company ABC Ltd and Product 1. The last date was 03/01/2017. The sales on that day was 9000, your solution picks up that and the 5000 from 01/01/2017 and so shows 14000
Thanks
