How to read only 8 previous months data of current month.

Hi,

I have created a master time dimension setting module where my current month(Boolean line item) is selected as June 18.

I want all the 8 previous months value to be read by a second line item from an input module(second module having data for all period)

Amount(line item) should have the values of only 8 previous month starting from June 18 to backward till Nov 17.

Regards

Can you use this?

If SYS Time.current month then movingsum(data,-8,0) else 0

Hope this helps,

Thanks for your quick response, the below formula give an error.

Can you please help me to enable Boolean check for previous 8 months periods from the current month.

Two line items created

Current month(Boolean)

Previous month enabled(Boolean)

If June 18 is checked as true, I want Nov 17,Dec 17,Jan 18,Feb 18,Mar 18,Apr 18,May 18 and Jun 18 also to be check enabled.

This should work for you....create a line item formatted as boolean:

ITEM(Time) >= PERIOD(CURRENTPERIODSTART()) - 7 AND ITEM(Time) <= PERIOD(CURRENTPERIODSTART())

Hope this helps,

Rob

As above, ensure that the formula is housed in your time settings module for optimal calculation efficiency
