Variable multiplicative date periods in set analysis

Hi All,

I'm trying to built a report which uses set analysis to separate invoiced products into periods that the user defines.

E.g.  I want to have variable columns created by the user using variable 'vVariableDateSearch', this creates periods such as 0-30 Days, 31-60 Days, 90+ Days etc.

The set analysis expression I've got for the second column is the following:

Sum({$<PLR_PLY_INVOICEDATE={">=($(=vCurrentDate)-$(=vVariableDateSearch)*2)<($(=vCurrentDate)-$(=vVariableDateSearch))"}>}PLR_PLY_T_DUEBYCLIENT-PLR_PLY_PAIDTODATE)

(Note, the strictly less than sign is intentional and that 'vCurrentDate' is the variable for today.)

However when I run this my output only shows $0.00's.  The other issue is that the below example seems to work:

Sum($<PLR_PLY_INVOICEDATE={">=($(=vCurrentDate)-$(vVariableDateSearch))<=$(=vCurrentDate)"}>}PLR_PLY_T_DUEBYCLIENT-PLR_PLY_PAIDTODATE)


I've also tried replacing section [$(=vCurrentDate)-($(=vVariableDateSearch)*2)] with [$(=vCurrentDate)-$(=vVariableDateSearch)-$(=vVariableDateSearch)] however this doesn't work either.

Can someone let me know where the issue in the expression might be?

Thanks and regards,

Nathan
