Total function functionality in linest m function

Hi Team,

-->can we use variable in  in total<> Expression

like :total<$(zCyclic1)>

-->if it is possible then how can i implement in my bellow logic

linest_m(total <$(zCyclic1)> aggr($(mtotalpeople),$(zCyclic1),[Date]),[Date]),

----here $(zCyclic1) contains india--

---$(zCyclic1) --it contains country's list --depend upon users selection country will be change

if the above implementation is not possible then could you please provide different code for same calculation of linest_m

Regards,

Bobby.

You should be able to use a field name list with the TOTAL qualifier, but not a field value list.

Hay swuehl,

i agree that one

Old code is :

linest_m(total <india> aggr($(mtotalpeople),india,[Date]),[Date]),


but i need to implement  like below:

linest_m(total <$(zCyclic1)> aggr($(mtotalpeople),$(zCyclic1),[Date]),[Date]),


is it possible?


not possible can we have any similar functions like above one?(Linest m)


Regards,

Bobby

In general, the dollar sign expansion is just a text replacement before the expression even gets evaluated.

So if the DSE is exactely just replaced with india, this should work well.

Are you sure this is the right sample QVW?

I can't see any dimension groups in your application.

You can use  GetCurrentField( DimensionGroup ) to retrieve the current active field from your dimension group.

I created a variable to do this vDimGroup1.

Then replace your hard coded dimensions in the linest_m total and aggr() with that variable, as I've done for the first table.

Second table should be quite analogue.
