Is that possible to customize the time scale text?

BruceSonos

Users export forecast report every day, they are wondering if the time scale here e.g. "Week 1 FY25" could be "Week 1 FY25 (2024-09-29)" which add a START date of this week, otherwise they have to manually add it in the excel file.

Thank you

@BruceSonos create system module with weeks as dimension and use the formulas to create your custom week name . In this case I have created like this.

Now create a Custom list and add Weeks dimension and import Combine line item into your list .

Now you can use this list in the module to show your reporting. Refer the week data from the time dimension module by using lookup of Week mapping . Hope this helps.

Hi @BruceSonos ,

You can't do that with native time dimension unfortunately. You will have to introduce custom time dimension (a numbered list preferably) for the reporting/export purpose, to achieve dynamic renaming of time items.

Cheers!

Hi @AjayM

Thank you for your reply, regarding the custom time dimension you mentioned, could give me a high level guidance? How could I apply it for the reporting/export purpose?

Hi @BruceSonos ,
You could use the label option of week commencing instead to get the start date-

The time dimension across the model would look like this in that case-

Hope this helps! :)
