exchange rate calculation on Master calendar table

Hi All,

I have two tables Orders and Currency table. Orders values are in local currency format, I want to convert this local currency to USD format by using Currency table. Here below are the sample tables

Orders:  we have values for every date

OrderDateSalesLocal Currency
6/15/2014100EUR
8/22/2014120EUR
9/14/201480EUR
11/11/2014200EUR
12/2/2014150EUR
1/14/2015300EUR
2/28/201550EUR
6/25/201570EUR
8/15/2015100EUR

Currency table: we have exchange rate values for every quarter.

From DateCurrencyExachange rate
6/2/2014EUR0.55
9/1/2014EUR1.24
12/1/2014EUR0.00123
3/1/2015EUR0.34
6/1/2015EUR0.5

I want to join these tables based on From Date and Order Date fields, but I do not have all FromDate values in Currency table  so we need to create master calendar data for From Date. I am fine with Master Calendar table I know how to create it but my requirement is ,if OrderDate fall between FromDate quarter dates i need to pick that date related exchange rate and multiple with sales.

Example:

OrderDateSalesLocal Currency
6/15/2014100EUR
8/22/2014120EUR
9/14/201480EUR
11/11/2014200EUR
12/2/2014150EUR
1/14/2015300EUR
2/28/201550EUR
6/25/201570EUR
8/15/2015100EUR

for example in above table first order(6/15/2015) fall between 6/2/2014 and 9/31/2014(From date field),So i need to pick exchange rate related to FromDate quarter and calculate sales like Sum(100 * 0.55)

For 3rd order(9/14/2014) fall between 9/1/2014 and 12/1/2014. So sum value is Sum(80*1.24)

same way for other date also.



output looks like this.


OrderDateSales
6/15/2014100*0.55
8/22/2014120*0.55
9/14/201480*1.24
11/11/2014200* 1.24
12/2/2014150*0.00123
1/14/2015300* 0.00123
2/28/201550* 0.00123
6/25/201570*.05
8/15/2015100*.50

Hello!

1. change your currency table:

NullAsValue [FromDate], [Till Date];

t1:

load

     *,

     date(previos(From Date)-1)               As [Till Date]

resident [Currency table]

order by [From Date] desc;

drop table [Currency table];

2. Use intervalmatch.


left join (Orders)

intervalmatch (OrderDate)

load FromDate], [Till Date]

Resident t1;


left join (Orders)

load FromDate], [Till Date], [Exachange rate]

Resident t1;


drop table t1;


drop fields [FromDate], [Till Date];

HI Rajesh,

Please try:

Exchange_Rates:

LOAD * Inline

[

From Date,Currency,Exchange rate

6/2/2014,EUR,0.55

9/1/2014,EUR,1.24

12/1/2014,EUR,0.00123

3/1/2015,EUR,0.34

6/1/2015,EUR,0.5

];

NoConcatenate

Temp:

     Load [From Date],

     Currency,

     [Exchange rate]

     Resident Exchange_Rates ;

DROP Table Exchange_Rates;

     MinMaxFromDate:

     Load Min([From Date]) as MinDate,

     Max([From Date]) as MaxDate resident Temp;

     Let vMinDate = Peek('MinDate',-1,'MinMaxDate') - 1;

     Let vMaxDate = Peek('MaxDate',-1,'MinMaxDate')    ;

     Join (Temp)

     Load Date(recno()+$(vMinDate)) as Date Autogenerate vMaxDate - vMinDate;

     Exchange_Rates:

     NoConcatenate Load [From Date],

    Currency,

          If( IsNull( [Exchange rate] ), Peek( [Exchange rate] ), [Exchange rate] ) as [Exchange rate]

          Resident Temp

          Order By [From Date] ; /* so that above values can be propagated downwards */

     Drop Table MinMaxFromDate, Temp;

    

Temp:

Load Distinct Currency as Currencies

Resident Exchange_Rates;

For i=0 to FieldValueCount('Currencies')-1

Let vCurrency=Peek('Currencies', $(i), 'Temp');

Exchange_Rate_Map:

Mapping Load [From Date] as OrderDate,

[Exchange rate]

Resident Exchange_Rates

Where Currency = '$(vCurrency)';

Next

Drop Tables Temp,Exchange_Rates;

Sales:

LOAD *,Sales * [Exchange rate] as Amount;

LOAD *,

ApplyMap('Exchange_Rate_Map',OrderDate) as [Exchange rate];

LOAD * Inline

[

OrderDate,Sales,Currency

6/15/2014,100,EUR

8/22/2014,120,EUR

9/14/2014,80,EUR

11/11/2014,200,EUR

12/2/2014,150,EUR

Hi Sergey,

Looks we have close to your solution but joining should be based on OrderDate & CurrencyCode(Concatinate field) instead of OrderDate .

So how can we achieve this.

Hi!

You can add key into intervalmatch

Inner Join IntervalMatch (Date,CurrencyCode) LOAD FirstDate, LastDate, CurrencyCode resident Currency.

And take in mind you should create interval data for each Currency. Something like this:

load

    *,

  if(previous([Currency Code])=[Currency Code],date(previos(From Date)-1)              As [Till Date]

resident [Currency table]

order by

[Currency Code],

[From Date] desc;
