Selecting Time averages

Hi,

 

How to select the yearly average value of a line item from a module that is dimensioned by time (monthly), for the current year, in another module that is not dimensioned by time? Please note, I wish to make the formula dynamic and not use static values like TIME.FY19 

 

I have a "Shipments" module that is having monthly scale, time dimension. Line item "ShipmentRatio %" is a percent formatted metric.

 

I have another module called "Yearly Assumptions", which is not dimensioned by time. 

 

In the Year Assumptions module, I wish to calculate a line item as follows:

 

CurrentYrAvgRatio = Shipments.ShipmentRatio %[SELECT: TIME.'FY19']

Please note that ShipmentRatio % Summary and Time Summary methods have been set to "Average"

 

I don't want to hardcode 'FY19'. 

 

Using Shipments.ShipmentRatio %[SELECT: TIME.'Current Period'] is not helping as it is giving me the first MONTH's value from 2019, instead of FY19 average.

 

How can this be resolved?
