Hi,

I want to create a table with a variable with parameter. For example, i have the dimension year, and a variable that calculate the sales

of each year vSalesperYear($(variable1)), the thing is that the value of variable1 depends on de dimension year.

Imagine this is a qlikview table with dimension year and expresion $(variable1)

      year   variable1  

     2014      1

     2015      2

I want to create a table with dimension year and expression vSalesPerYear($(variable1)).

Can anyone help me??

Thanks,

you can try sum(if(idDate = min({<Year =>}idDate), Sales))

I'm not sure this is exactly right, but if you want to include a dimension in your calculation I believe you must use an if statement within your expression.
