Hi,
I want to calculate the minimum value but exclude all zeros.
I tried previously suggested solutions, but it is still not working. Any ideas?
@ymugeni
Create a line item (List formatted on Client) - Line item 1 -> IF amount = 0 then blank else item(clients)
Line item 2 -> Amount[MIN: Line item 1]
Hope that helps

You need to provide more info on your query. There are a lot of open ends and need more clarity.
However, There is a MIN function that you can use as an aggregation function.
The minimum summary method does not work for me because it brings back zeros, which makes sense. I want the calculation to take into consideration the minimum of the highlighted non-zero numbers only. I tried IF statements, but since it ends with Else 0, I am still getting zeros.
Hi @ymugeni
Here is the implementation of @Misbah 's solution. Using that method you'll have "Infinity" in some cells. I have added two additional line items as solution 2. You can also have a look at those.
Both solutions work fine.
Thanks!

I think you can use optimizer for this. Excluding zeros and getting minimum value.
Thanks,

Thank you so much for your timely solutions @Misbah, @ManjunathKN , and @ShubhamCh . The only issue is getting rid of the infinity, but this is good for now.
@ManjunathKN , can you expand on that? Any pictures or examples you can share?
@ymugeni if above solution helps then very well. You may go through the optimizer lesson, they have explained there.
In the screenshot shared by me, I have added 2 independent line items as a different solution. You can also use that solution. It won't show "Infinity" in the cells. The second line item - solution2 L2 is optional. You want to use it, use it otherwise use solution2 L1's summary (Min).
Ok, will do. Thanks.
Just as a comment to this as other people may view this article. I have used another approach to this in the past. Given you have a scenario where you want to view zero if that is the only entry (or if there are no number entries). But this needs a few more steps: What I have done then is to set up the following function Line items:—————————-Formula Numbers to review.————— (blank or your equation). summery setting MAX Max Value —————————-Numbers to review ← Dim by parent Zero Value? (Boolean).————'numbers to review' = 0 New Number to review.————if zero value? then max value[lookup parent] else numbers to review. Summery -Setting: Min Min Value & avoid Zero. ———'New number to review.' ← Dim by parent This would only generate 0 if all items where 0 else it would return the smallest value <> 0
@ymugeni you can avoid showing "infinity" by adding stage line items that will help indicate to Anaplan what level is the list item is at and what value to use depending on the level (these are using ratio aggregation). Below is the screenshot of the example.
Hello, I need help in getting the lowest value of all the years. see screenshot below : I need to get the value -1,249,884 since that is the lowest Thanks
I want to do a SUM from the source module which has native users, SKU list and time dimension to a target module line item by all users by SKUs. Target module only has a subset of the SKU list and nothing else. Need some inputs on how to build the mapping for the SUM. Is it also possible with the Anaplan native users list…
Hi Community, I’m encountering an issue where an export created in Anaplan is missing column headers when retrieved via the API. However, when I manually run the same export from the Actions tab, the downloaded file includes the headers. Has anyone experienced this behavior before? I’d appreciate any insights into the root…
