I have a module where I have sales per country. I want to average sales and not add when I roll up to region or when I chose region from drop down. How can I do that?
Try changing your summary method from "Sum" to "Average"
@SnehaPrabha You can use Average Summary for that line item from blueprint of the module.
Cheers!!
@SnehaPrabha As everyone mentioned, try this out! Changing the Summary method and explore bunch of other summary methods!
Thanks SRoberts, Himansu and Dikshant I tried it but I have a level within country were I need sum. So the below example when I use average the Sparkling shows average rather than sum. It serves the purpose when I do the report as a region only the subtotals shows average, am I doing something wrong. I need the subtotal like Sparkling, Still etc to add (sum) but when I do it by region instead of Turkey it should average, subtotals should still be total. Hope I explained it clearly.
I also want to let you know that I also have quarterly summary in the same module
Sum and Time: Average work well when I chose country but when I chose region it shows all country numbers added up
@SnehaPrabha - Can you pivot and put the country dimension in rows and show where, for two countries, it shows SUM at the region level?
Hi @SnehaPrabha,
I hope my understanding of your requirement is correct:
Scenario 1: You are looking at Country & Product Parent (Sparkling, Still etc.) level
β Summary should be SUM
Scenario 2: You are looking at Region & Product (Juice, Tea) level
β Summary should be Average
Scenario 3: You are looking at Region & Product Parent level
The solution is a bit complicated, so if someone has a better solution please let me know :)
Step 1: Create a module to calculate Cross Level Parameters
You need to create a line item for each of the hierarchy level. Please pay attention to the summaries and applies to.
Ratio for highest level (e.g. Region)
Ratio for other levels (e.g. Country)
The idea of this module is to identify and mark the points where different summaries needed.
Combo Result: IF Country Hierarchy <> 3 AND Product Hierarchy = 5 THEN 6 ELSE IF Country Hierarchy <> 3 AND Product Hierarchy <> 5 THEN 7 ELSE Country Hierarchy
IF Country Hierarchy <> 3 AND Product Hierarchy = 5 THEN 6 ELSE IF Country Hierarchy <> 3 AND Product Hierarchy <> 5 THEN 7 ELSE Country Hierarchy
Step 2: Calculate the final result
Please pay attention to summaries and applies to.
Final Result: IF Cross Level Parameters.Combo Result = 3 OR Cross Level Parameters.Combo Result = 7 THEN Source Value * Product Count ELSE Source Value
IF Cross Level Parameters.Combo Result = 3 OR Cross Level Parameters.Combo Result = 7 THEN Source Value * Product Count ELSE Source Value
@SnehaPrabha It sounds like you want UPT to:
If that's the case, a simple solution is to have three line items:
Here's what the blueprint looks like:
And here's what the output in my model looks like (where region and quarters average but product sums across the active dimension):
If you want summary method behavior to be different within different levels of the same hierarchy, you need to get more complicated. (Similar to what @nvilkko described)
I have always difficulty identifying line items that are NOT referenced by any other line items/modules but used in actions or dashboard filters. During model cleanup, we often encounter line items that appear unreferenced but may still be actively used as filters in dashboards or within actions. These usages are notβ¦
I need to create an Anaplan workflow where a task is completed at the subregion level, but the approval happens at the higher region level. The current Anaplan workflow functionality seems to require that the approval task is on the same page and at the same hierarchical level as the completed task. My specific questionβ¦
Hi Anaplan Community, I'm facing an issue while importing data (text details) into a module that has two dimensions: "Unique Line ID" and "Organization x Site". The source file is based on a numbered list. It includes text-formatted columns (line items) that contain the names of the "Unique Line ID" and "Organization xβ¦
