Straight Table calculation

HI All

I am currently using a straight table for calculating the sum(sales) between start date and end date

my dimensions are branch, start date and end date and sales date

sales date is always between start date and end date

my expression is sum(sales)  for sales and sum(Daily_Targets)

it is summing up the sales correctly between start date and end date

but when i use  sum(Daily_Targets) it is not summing up the Daily_Targets between the start date and end date

Please suggest

You can also start with a concatenated sales and target table, like shown in attached sample.

You will notice that you split your weekly targets into 5 parts, but you will have sales on dates that are not part of your start-end intervals.

(which you lost in your previous sample).

How does your data model look like?

It's hard to answer your question with the information provided. It would be best if you can upload a small sample QVW.

Sth wrong with this statement:

[Week Target]/(EndDate - StartDate+1)  as Daily_Target,

What you are trying to achieve, Day level Targets?

Your target values will be duplicated by the LEFT JOIN of your sales facts when there are more than 1 sales per date.

Have a look at

Fact Table with Mixed Granularity

and the referenced tech note.

HI Balraj

Sales will be done only based on the above pricing table, where 'Start' and 'End' field defines Quantity Range,

Example,

Product A will be sold in the price of Rupees 100 per quantity between 1-3 (qty)

The 4th qty will be sold in the price of rupees 110.
