Dear All
I have a straight table that does some basic calculations. What I am calculating is usually just the sum in each case and I show the subtotals. One of my dimensions is year and the purpose of the table is to compare year on year.
| Dept | Proposed Year of Entry | Total | Status 1 | Status 2 | Status 3 | Status 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16809 | 9204 | 1210 | 80 | 225 | ||
| Dept 1 | 201516 | 6223 | 3378 | 556 | 32 | 82 |
| Dept 1 | 201415 | 4736 | 2419 | 427 | 37 | 34 |
| Dept 1 | 201314 | 3919 | 3800 | 186 | 35 | 35 |
| Dept 2 | 201516 | 639 | 431 | 14 | 7 | 3 |
| Dept 2 | 201415 | 919 | 980 | 21 | 2 | 1 |
| Dept 2 | 201314 | 363 | 335 | 5 | 0 | 1 |
These are not the real figures.... and they don't add up here!
I want to show percentage change between 201516 and the two previous years. I've tried using 'below' and this works great for comparing one year to the year below BUT I want to compare 201516 and 201314 as well as 201516 and 201415 and I can't get this to work. This is my calculation for the one below which does work. How would I compare to two below? I've tried putting in -2 instead of -1 but this doesn't work.
=(sum({$<[Exclusions]={'0'}>}[FTE])/below(sum({$<[Exclusions]={'0'}>}[FTE])) -1)
I've also tried creating a separate chart which just does the comparisons for each status individually BUT I can't get these to show as percentage change so they come out as 110% and 127% which I don't want.
=sum({$<[Exclusions]={'0'},[Proposed Year of Entry]={'201516'}>}[FTE])/sum({$<[Exclusions]={'0'},[Proposed Year of Entry]={'201415'}>}[FTE])
Any ideas on how to use below differently? Or on how to present percentage change properly in the ?
Thanks
Alison
