Hi Guys,
I would like to ask for your help regarding my problem.
Please let me explain my problem brielfly:
This is my data for 2 years:
2011:
Group | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec |
A | 100 | 110 | 120 | 130 | 140 | 150 | 160 | 170 | 180 | 190 | 200 | 210 |
B | 150 | 160 | 170 | 180 | 190 | 200 | 210 | 220 | 230 | 240 | 250 | 260 |
C | 200 | 210 | 220 | 230 | 240 | 250 | 260 | 270 | 280 | 290 | 300 | 310 |
2012:
Group | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec |
A | 80 | 90 | 100 | 110 | 120 | 130 | 140 | 150 | 160 | 170 | 180 | 190 |
B | 130 | 140 | 150 | 160 | 170 | 180 | 190 | 200 | 210 | 220 | 230 | 240 |
C | 180 | 190 | 200 | 210 | 220 | 230 | 240 | 250 | 260 | 270 | 280 | 290 |
Formula:
Sales Ratio = Sum Sales this month divided by Sum Sales of the whole year
(ex. If user selects Aug-2012,then Sum (Sales for Aug 2012) divided by Sum (Sales from Aug 2011 to Aug 2012).
Catch:
User wants only to select Aug 2012 in the listbox. Now the user wants to see the result of Sales Ratio. The answer should be: 0.080213903
Question:
What will my expression look like?
Thanks in advance and godbless!

you can create two variables
1. first variable will contain the selected date
2. second variable will contain the date of last year
then compare these two variable in your set analysis.
It is better if you post a sample app...

Hi Son of Sardar,
I tried using set analysis but it wont fetch the months that are not selected by the user . Thanks by the way.
Hi Gerald ,
Its ok! why dont you just give a sample file to me with dummy data.
Hi Son of Sardar,
