Single date variable between two dates in set analysis question

All the samples of date range in set analysis I find show a similar format of a single date record between two date variables selected like here.

Sum({< CalendarDate = {'>=$(=Date(vStartDate))<=$(=Date(vEndDate))'} >} SalesAmount)

I have Start and End record dates and need to have a single date variable range.

Example:

Sum({< vDateVariable = {' >= (RecordStart)  < (RecordEnd) '} SalesAmount)

All the ways I have tried with the RecordStart and RecordEnd dates not recognize the columns once in the set.

Thanks for your help.

Assuming that RecordStart and Record End date are field, then you should write

Sum({< RecordStart = {"<=$(vDateVariable)"}, RecordEnd={">$(vDateVariable)"}>} SalesAmount)

Hi Darrin,

Try to add a = before it

Sum({< vDateVariable = {' >= (=RecordStart)  < (=RecordEnd) '} SalesAmount)


The better way is to use the variable for comparing, comparing the the fields my not yield a correct result

Hi,

what is is your expression for vDateVariable ??

try this

Sum({< vDateVariable = {">= $(=RecordStart)  < $(=RecordEnd)"} SalesAmount)

I have tried every variation and return either 0 or null.

I have a calendar object which places the numeric value for a date into the variable  vActiveDt

From there I have tried the following. Both iterations below with and without wrapping the variable in Date()

Sum({< FeatureStartDt = {"<=Date($(vActiveDt))"}, FeatureEndDt={">Date($(vActiveDt))"}>} LOSCnt)

Sum({< FeatureStartDt = {"<=$(vActiveDt)"}, FeatureEndDt={">$(vActiveDt)"}>} LOSCnt)

Sum({< Date(vActiveDt) = {">= $(=FeatureStartDt)  < $(=FeatureEndDt)"} LOSCnt)

Sum({< vActiveDt = {">= $(=FeatureStartDt)  < $(=FeatureEndDt)"} LOSCnt)

Thank you.

Hi Max,

The vDateVariable is generated from a calendar object.  When I look at the value created it is a numeric value.

ie. 42127 which = 5/3/2015

All formats I have tried give me an error.

Maxgro,

As it would be adding a variable.
Variavel brings value.

Variable: vExpressao1

Sum({<DATA={'>$(=Date(vFromDate))<$(=Date(vToDate))'}>}vExpressao1)
