Erros in Expression: ')' expected

[#1]

Hello to all,

I'm facing the following issue in my chart:

I have the following variables that are display in my chart:

Variable A = $(vAA)

Variable B = $(vBB)

When I try to divide then, I tried different forms, with paranteses, without and so on....

Case 1:

A/B = $(vAA) / $(vBB)

Case 2:

After commenting the 'A/B' field.

Case 3:

Anything different than case 1.

Any idea on the main reason why it is happening?

Kind regards,

Marco Arruda

How are the two variables defined? And you are saying that Case 1 works, but Case 2 and 3 don't?

How are the variables defined ?

Using case 1, clear the expression label and hover with the mouse over the expression header.

What do you see?

A = sum({$<Year={$(vLast_Year)}>}$(vRevenuePY))/1000

B = sum({$<Year= {$(vCurrent_Year)}>}$(vRevenue))/1000

Variables used in A and B:
vRevenue:

If([$Currency Selector]='EUR', [Revenue EUR],

if([$Currency Selector]='USD', [Revenue USD],

if([$Currency Selector]='CC', [Revenue CC],

if([$Currency Selector]='GBP', [Revenue GBP]))))

vCurrent_Year:
=if( GetSelectedCount(Year)=1,Year, Year(Today()))

vLast_Year:
=$(vCurrent_Year)-1

Case 1
Does not work, because I was expecting a result of (for total): 175.629 / 182.507 = 0.96
What happens is that I have for case 1, that shows only variable A.

Case 3:
When I try to include parentesis or anything like it in my expression.

What I don't understand is why case 1 gives me only variable A instead of the division of variable A / variable B.

I tried to hover over it in the label, definition and the header of the chart (table), but I got nothing.
Am I on the right track?

Can you post an actual screenshot(s) of your variable definition shown in variable overview?
