Previous month value

Hello,

I have NumMonth field in my master calendar, and I am using the following code to generate NumMonth.

num(Month(TempDate)) As NumMonth

Now I want to get previous months count m based on my month selection. I am using this code.

=count({$< NumMonth={"=num(max(NumMonth))-1"}>} Reconciliation_ID)

This code is giving me current months count. if I hard code the value as

=count({$< NumMonth={5}>} Reconciliation_ID)  I get the result . however it is not working with the code I am using.

Please help

Thank you,

Ashis

Hello,

please add this field to your model : Year(Date) * 12 + Month(Date) as [Month Counter].

And then your set analysis becomes [Mounth Counter] = {'$(=MAX([Month Counter] - 1))'}.

Il you use Num Month, you will have an issue in January. The solution I propose goes to December of the previous year.

Thanks,

Brice

You can use this?

=count({$< NumMonth={'$(=Max(NumMonth)-1)'}>} Reconciliation_ID)

Hi,

If you put the formula (=num(max(NumMonth))-1) in a label, what's the result? is 5?

I would think this to work from Anil

=Count({$<NumMonth={'$(=Max(NumMonth)-1)'}>} Reconciliation_ID)

With a slight issue that what would you want to see when Jan is selected?

To get the previous month of current selection

=num(max({$}MonthNum))-1

to get the previous Selection

=num(max({$1}MonthNum))-1
