The Date Challenge!

[Anonymous]

Hi Experts!

I've a simple table with ID, OrderDate and Sales.

I also have another table which is not linked with the above table. This table has a list of dates like a calendar.

I want to be able to select any date from Calendar and then show all the OrderDate which >= Calendar Date and <= CalendarDate+15days.

For example if I select date 01/04/2016 I get this list:

Now what I actually want is a straight table that looks like this:

Is this something possible?

I'm attached the app and the data if anyone can have a look!

Hi,

what is your dimension??

use calendar date as your dimension.

Expression

sum(if(orderDate<=CalendarDate and orderDate>=CalendarDate+15,Sales)

Hi,

Try this as your calculated dimension:

=aggr(sum(distinct{<OrderDate={">=$(=max(Calendar))<=$(=max(Calendar)+15)"}>} OrderDate),OrderDate)

Do this after ensuring that both OrderDate and Calendar are in the number format during data-load. Manage the date-display format in the display objects.

May be you meant this (incorrect signs )

Sum(If(OrderDate >= Calendar and OrderDate <= (Calendar+15), Sales))

Yes this might work. I'll do further testing on this but is there anyway I can see the repeated Code and sales value as soon as they become available in the chart. like this?

ideally i want to have the calculated dimension rather than building this logic in expression.

Hi Karthik

I want this logic to be build in calculated dimension not at the expression level.
