YTD calculation

Hi,

I have only year and month fields. and on selection of year and month, it should give me the addition of  consecutive months (january onwards, upto selected month/year)

For ex, on selecting 2014 March, i want sum of January2014 + february 2014 + march 2014 value.

How can it be done

Thanks.

Becasue with dimension expression behavior changes.

If you use text box

exp:=Sum({<Year={$(=only(Year))},Month_Name=, Month={"<=$(=Max(Month))"}>} [DS1Volume])

chart

exp=Aggr(RangeSum(Above(Sum({<Year={$(=only(Year))},Month_Name, Month={"<=$(=Max(Month))"}>} [DS1Volume]),0,RowNo(Total))),Month_Name)

Hi Aditi,

Try to join both month and Year and  make one field the use that field, may be that can solve your issue.

eg in script:

Month & Year as New_Date,

Then in expression:

Sum({<New_Date={">=$(=YearStart(Max(New_Date)))<=$(=Max(New_Date))"}>} [DS1Volume]))
