Sum multiple Sum-Set analysis statements

Hello,

I think I'm misunderstanding the capabilities of Set Analysis.

I'm using this expression:

(sum({$<[Resource Type] = {'Retained'},[#Hours Billed]={0},[#Hours Worked]-={0}>} [#Hours Worked] * #Rate)

+sum({$<[Resource Type] = {'Retained'},[#Hours Worked]={0},[#Hours Billed]-={0}>} [#Hours Billed] * #Rate)

+sum({$<[Resource Type] = {'Retained'},[#Hours Worked]-={0},[#Hours Billed]-={0}>} [#Hours Billed] * #Rate))

To aggregate these calculations based on the Set Modifier conditions.  I tried using the above expression to create three different sets (Exclusive of one another) of data - combine them - and then sum the value returned.

1st set where the Hours Billed are 0 and the Hours worked are not 0 - sum(Hours Worked*Rate)

2nd set where the Hours Worked are 0 and the Hours Billed are not 0 - sum(Hours Billed*Rate)

3rd set where the Hours Worked are not 0 and the Hours Billed are not 0 - sum(HoursBilled*Rate) Hours billed takes precedence here

Finally, I wished to sum all the values returned from these three sets. Am I misunderstanding the capabilities of Set Analysis or the underlying logic behind it?

If anyone could give me some direction that would be great!

Thanks,

Channing

Is the value truly 0, or is it null? If it is Null, you can try this:

Sum({$<[Resource Type] = {'Retained'}>} Alt([#Hours Billed], [#Hours Worked]) * #Rate)

or may be this if it is 0

Sum({$<[Resource Type] = {'Retained'}>} If([#Hours Billed] = 0, [#Hours Worked], [#Hours Billed]) * #Rate)
