Straight table with values per year, delta values

[steeefan]

Hi there,

I am having trouble creating a table showing the following:

	2014	2015	Δ	Δ [%]
Turnover	100	150	50	50%
Tons	75	150	75	100%
...	...	....	...	...

Right now I'm using a horizontal straight table to show the first three columns which works fine. I am having trouble however adding the delta values to the table because they aren't dimensions but set analysis expressions. I also tried using a second table next to this one w/o luck.

I also thought about pre-calculating all the different delta values in the load script but that's way too many dimensions I'd have to consider.

Has anyone ever done or come across this? I'm not sure this will work at all because it's mixing up dimensions and expressions.

Thanks,

-Stefan

First of all, the example you have provided is different then the question you have asked.

Kindly use below script..

tblExample:

LOAD * INLINE [

  Year, Turnover, Tons

  2014, 100, 75

  2015, 150, 150

];

Now use below in Straight or Pivot Table

Dimension

Use Calculated Dimension

=ValueList('TurnOver','Tons')

Expressions

1)

Label

=Year(Today())-1

Definition

=

IF(ValueList('TurnOver','Tons') = 'TurnOver', SUM({<Year = {'$(=Year(Today())-1)'}>}Turnover),

IF(ValueList('TurnOver','Tons') = 'Tons', SUM({<Year = {'$(=Year(Today())-1)'}>}Tons)))

2)

Label

=Year(Today())

Definition

=

IF(ValueList('TurnOver','Tons') = 'TurnOver', SUM({<Year = {'$(=Year(Today()))'}>}Turnover),

IF(ValueList('TurnOver','Tons') = 'Tons', SUM({<Year = {'$(=Year(Today()))'}>}Tons)))

3)

Label

Diff

Definition

Column(2)-Column(1)

4)

Label

Diff%

Definition

(Column(2)-Column(1))/Column(1)

Go to Number Tab

and Select last Expression Diff%

Fixed to 2 Decimals

Tick Show in Percent (%)
