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
Madhu

Can you use this?
If SYS Time.current month then movingsum(data,-8,0) else 0

Hi @rob_marshall ,
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,

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