Analysis :: MDX To Filter For Completed Periods Only (part Of Annualized Calculation)
Sep 9, 2015
I have been following the tutorial/blog post HERE to create an annualization (or "run rate") of my Gross Amount measure. What I want to do now is exclude any period that is not "complete".
For example, if today is 9/9 then Q3 is not complete - only Q1 and Q2 are complete. And if I'm looking at it monthly then January through August are complete, but September is not.
Cells B5 and D5 look exactly as I expect and want them to be. On row 6 below under each "Gross Annualized" value I have basically just put the formula for what it's actually doing.
What I would like to see in the blue cell is $67,211,697,268 - essentially the most recent annualization for a completed period. The annualization for Q3 is misleading because the quarter has not yet completed. There's $16b in Q1 and $17b in Q2, so the measly $78m in Q3 (yellow cell) is dragging the annualization down significantly. Even worse, the Gross Amount for Q4 is being treated as a $0.00, which is further dragging down the "2015 Gross Annualized" amount in blue. In a T-SQL average calculation, for example, I think the green cell would be treated as NULL rather than $0. That's kind of the behavior I want.
So I would like to do two things:
Create a calculation (probably just a 0 or 1 flag) that indicates whether the current period is complete or not. Again, using 9/9/2015 as an example, Q2 would be complete but Q3 would not be. And August would be complete, but September would not. Make the blue cell show $67,211,697,268 - an annualization based on completed quarters only.
For whatever it's worth here is the current calculation for Gross Annualized.
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[Gross YTD]
AS AGGREGATE(
YTD([Pay Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember)
,[Measures].[Gross Amount]),
FORMAT_STRING = "Currency",
VISIBLE = 0;
[Code] .....

I would like to add a calculation to provide an annualized Gross Amount value. Most solutions I have seen are for annualizing down to the day. For instance, if today is the 123rd day of the year, the calculation would be Amount / 123 * 365. What I want to do is annualize the amount based only on completed periods. Today is 8/26.
The last completed quarter ended on 6/30. Therefore I want to basically take the sum of Q1 and Q2, divide by two, and multiply by four to get an annualized amount based on completed quarters. Eventually I want to do something similar with months.
So here's what I have so far. In my DSV my DimDate is actually based on a view. The view has a Date column with the actual date, all of the normal fields you would expect in a DimDate table, and two columns that look like this:
CASE
WHEN [Date] < DATEADD(QQ, DATEDIFF(QQ, 0, GETDATE()), 0)
THEN 'Y'
ELSE 'N'
END AS
CompletedQuarter,
[Code] ....
Note that for dates between 1/1 and 3/31 the CompletedQuarterCount will be 0. I want any annualized amount to be 0 in that case because I only want to use completed quarters in my calculation.
I added both to my Pay Date dimension (which uses vwDimDate from the DSV) in the cube. I have tried the calculation below and in my Excel pivot table I'm getting blanks for the calculated field.
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[Gross Amount Annualized by Pay Date Quarter]
AS SUM(
IIF([Pay Date].[Pay Date Completed Quarter Count] > 0,
[Gross Amount] / [Pay Date].[Pay Date Completed Quarter Count] * 4,
0)
),
FORMAT_STRING = "Currency",
VISIBLE = 1 , ASSOCIATED_MEASURE_GROUP = 'Fact Claim' ;
So, is my calculation correct?

I have developed a cube in my work place for analyzing current year sales with previous year sales in Time Hierarchy (Year- Quarter- Month) using Parallel period. If we want to see data for particular Quarters i.e. Q1 and Q2 then total at the year level should also get change. Currently if we only choose 2 quarters in the filter then current year data gets change, however data using parallel period is not getting change accordingly and its shows Total of full year.

I have created calcalated measures in a SQL Server 2012 SSAS multi dimensional model by creating empty measures in the cube and use scope statements to fill the calculation.
(so I can use measure security on calculations
as explained here )
SCOPE [Measures].[C];
THIS = IIF([B]=0,0,[Measures].[A]/[Measures].[B]);

I have a set of data and calculated already the average of a specific measure, incl. the Standarddeviation of this measure. Now I want to create a average measure of the values on row level which arehigher than [Avg]-[StdDev] AND lower of [Avg]+[StDev].As far as I understand I have to check on Rowlevel, which means on Date and Brand Level, if the value of the measure is above or lower than the Mean +/- StdDev.
SUM( FILTER( {[Dim 1].[Attribue].&[selected]},[Measures].[Fact Survey Count] > [Measures].[Mean + 0,5 StDev] AND [Measures].[Fact Survey Count] < [Measures].[Mean - 0,5 StDev] ),[Measures].[Fact Survey Count])
which leads to a wrong result. This one counts all rows if true.With Descendants I got a #Value-Error, probably because I did not understand how the calculations work. I planned to include this in a IIF calculation.
SUM( Descendants(
{[Dim 1].[Attribute].&[selected],
[Dim Date].[Date].[Date].CURRENTMEMBER}, Leaves), [Measures].[Fact Survey Count])

Need to resolve this calculation, which I would believe is something very common on SSAS environments.
Like many companies, my company has different ways of calculating Sales and the two I want to focus are Sales Gross and Sales Net.
At a high level, we calculate Sales Gross as Sales with returns, and Sales Net as Sales without returns.
We have an attribute called Order Type that has various types of orders a user can execute with my company. One of them is Returns. If you return something back to us, we record that as a return line on the sales table. With that, we can calculate that return, breaking data down by Order Type, such as:
Order Type Line Total
Mail Orders $ 776,655.44
Internet Orders $ 2,211,334.00
Call Center Orders $ 11,223,344.00
Credit Orders $ (55,666.00)
Today, to calculate Sales Gross and Sales Net, we are creating two dimensions: DimSalesGross and DimSalesNet.
To calculate Sales Gross, we leave the data at the natural state, not making any changes to mappings.
To calculate Sales Net, we map Credit Orders to Call Center Orders at the ETL level, getting a Net value for sales (Orders - Returns), however, I doubt this is the correct way of doing.
I would like to have a Line Total Net / Line Total Gross calculation, which would be based on the Order Type value.
Perhaps using a CASE statement in MDX? Is the above possible?

I'm trying to calculate the average number of sick days per person so that it can be broken down by person role or department or some other dimension. I have a calculation for sick days that works ok and is [measures].[sick days.I'm trying to create another calculation that is [total staff] but it doesn't work.
My final calculation will be [avg sick days] = [measures].[sick days] / [measures].[total staff]
The bit I can't get to work is making it ignore any filters. For example I have a measure called [staff] and as you would expect it can be broken down by [person].[role] or [department].[department].
I'm trying to get [total staff] to return the total when it's used with [person] or [department]. I've managed to get it to work with [person] by using ROOT([Person]) but then I will need to do this for all different hierarchies that will use it.

Hi,
I have a cube with the following
DimStartDate
DimEndDate
DimArea
FactDataCount
I need to output the following report
Area 5days 10days 30days
Miami 4 2 1
Memphis 3 3 2
1)Where do I do the dateDiff calculation, at report or cube level?
2)How do I work out which dates belong to the above groups? I'm assuming i have to check if the dateDiff lies between those numbers?
thanks

I have a calculation that granularity is on a specific level and therefore would like the calculation to be only visible/calculate when with a specific dimension structure & attributes
SCOPE([Measures].[Complaint Rate]);
SCOPE([Item Dimension].[Item Structure].Members);
this=(IIF([Measures].[Sales Units]=0,NULL,(([Measures].[Count]/[Measures].[Sales Units])*1000000)));
END SCOPE;
END SCOPE;
This displays the calculation all the time even if no item attributes are selected, I only want the calculation applicable to the structure & attributes belonging to structure - I tried children, currentmember etc. but no luck - its probably something small I am missing. Tried this too
this=(IIF([Measures].[Sales Units]=0,NULL,(([Item Dimension].[Item Structure].CURRENTMEMBER,[Measures].[Count]/[Item Dimension].[Item Structure].CURRENTMEMBER,[Measures].[Sales Units])*1000000)));

I am stuck in a situation where I want to use YTD for three different calendars of our company and don't want to create three different YTD calculations. However I want to make this work for any measure not for a particular measure
If I create one YTD and try to use in context of three calendars in SCOPE statements then it does not give my right results. Following is my syntax but It does not work.
SCOPE([Billing Date].[SalesCalendar].MEMBERS);
( [Aggregate].[AGGREGATE CODE].[YTD] )
= Aggregate({[Aggregate].[AGGREGATE CODE].DefaultMember}*{PERIODSTODATE([Billing Date].[SalesCalendar].[Sales Calendar Year],[Billing Date].[SalesCalendar].CURRENTMEMBER) } );
[Code] ....
However if I comment on one of SCOPE statement , other one works but both don't work simultaneously in context of different calendars.

I cannot understand why Total of calculated member is displayed incorrect. How should I change calculated member for it to work correctly?
Calculated Member:
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].AverageScore
AS IIF([Measures].[Distance]<2001,0,[Measures].[avgscore]/[Measures].[Date Count]),
VISIBLE = 1;
It seems that Total is calculated without checking value in "AverageScore" for that month.

I'm having what i think it's a strange error in CALCULATE function:
Calculation:=CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT([SK_CUSTOMER]); 'fact x'[_sales net]<>0)
where _sales net is a calculated column, sum of 3 existing columns lets call columnA , columnB, columnC
This calculation doesn't work well, the results seem to be like as if _sales net was only equal to columnA.
Naturally I've already done build deploy and full process.

I need to conditionally include a filter in the below DAX query such a way that if an Account_ID is passed (as client side parameter) the filter should be included in the query otherwise if it is zero, the query should return results across all account. For example, if total purchase is queried for Account_ID=2 the query should be like this:
evaluate
calculatetable (
addcolumns (
summarize (
'Event'
[code]...
but if the Account_ID is passed as zero, condition 'Event'[Account_ID] = 2 should be removed.Is this possible to implement in DAX?

I am trying to get a list of years from a Date dimension that includes a limited number of values. I want the current year and the previous 5 years. The year number in the cube is actually a char(4) value so I will have to cast that.
Also I want to alias the field, since Im using this list to use as a parameter in an SSRS report.
The MDX I have at the moment is this:<br/>
WITH
MEMBER [SALESYEAR] AS
CInt([DimCalendar].[Year].CURRENTMEMBER)
SELECT
NULL ON COLUMNS,FILTER(
[DimCalendar].[Year].MEMBERS , [SALESYEAR] > 2012) ON ROWS
FROM [MySalescube]
The above returns empty, but I also need to define an expression that is the current year - 5 years

At the 2nd level, the calculated measure will only be correct if it is Averaged. And at the 1st level, the calculated measure will only be correct to take these Average value from 2nd level and Sum then up together.
Level 1 Level 2
A
X1
X2
=================
(Avg of X1 + X2)
B
Y1
Y2
Y3
=================
(Avg of Y1 + Y2 + Y3)
===================================================
(Sum of (Avg of X1 + X2) + (Avg of Y1 + Y2 + Y3) )
Currently, Instead of summing all the 3 averaged value, it is averaging against all the items like,
(Avg of X1 + X2 + Y1 + Y2 + Y3)
My MDX currently looks something like that
[Measure].[Value] / [Dimension].[Attribute.count] -> so i can get the avarage at the 2nd level but it doesn't require on the 1st level but retaining this value.
How can i do an average on the leaf level and using these average values to sum at parent level?

For example, I have a Date dimension with attributes like Current Day and Current Month. If I run the following, I get exactly what I expect: a list of the days in the current month.
select
NULL on 0,
[Case - Date - PSPT Entry].[Year - Quarter - Month].[Date] on 1
from [Customer Support]
where
[Case - Date - PSPT Entry].[Current Month].&[True]
When I run the following, I'm getting a list of the days in the current month *plus the first couple days of the next month*. with
set [Days of Interest]
as
filter([Case - Date - PSPT Entry].[Year - Quarter - Month].[Date], [Case - Date - PSPT Entry].[Current Month].&[True])
select
NULL on 0,
[Days of Interest] on 1
from [Customer Support]

I'm trying to create a percentile rank function based on the standard WIKI version:
I've seen Brian Knight's article here, but that only deals with percentile.
Where I'm struggling is getting the count of members in a set using a measure, in the current context on the same hierarchy, as the filter expression. I'm using the comparative set as in belonging to the same geographical location, and therefore associating by another attribute.
So, cl as below:
MEMBER [Measures].[RegionPercentileCount] AS
Count(
Filter(
NonEmpty(
descendants(Ancestor(
[Supplier].[NameMap].CurrentMember,
[Supplier].[NameMap].[Region]),
[Supplier].[NameMap].[Supplier Id]),
[Measures].[ActiveMeasure])
, [Measures].[ActiveMeasure] <
([Supplier].[NameMap].CurrentMember,
[Measures].[ActiveMeasure])))
Using the same measure and context hierarchy is always going to be equal, and therefore the count is always zero. Its almost as if I need a nested context for the FILTER which allows me to use enumerate the set on the same hierarchy whilst maintaining the external reference.
I'm thinking that perhaps I'm going to have to create another hierarchy and use that as the filter set and reference through StrToMember or similar.

I have an existing MDX query returning the correct resultset. However, I want to add a filter so that for a combination of value in Hierarchy1 and Hierarchy2, the data is filtered out.
For example I have data like
H1 H2 Amount
1 1 100
2 1 50
3 1 45
I am getting a value of 100+50+45=195.
I want to filter the data for the combination H1=3 and H2=1. Expected result would be 100...
H1 H2 Amount
1 1 100
2 1 50

I have been living in the T-SQL world for years, and am working on my first Tabular model.
I have a fact table that I would like to use for many reports. My idea is that I would use Perspectives in the tabular model to pull in the columns that I need for each purpose. In some cases, I also need to filter out some rows. Is there a way to filter perspectives? The only solution I am coming up with is to create views in SQL Server and import the fact table multiple times for each purpose. That doesn't seem very efficient.

My requirement is to count the customer order number for premium order type orders which has some order quantity.I am using below MDX
count
(
Filter
(([Customer Order].[Dim Customer Orderkey].[Dim Customer Orderkey].members,
[Outbound Order Attributes].[Order Type].&[P]),[Measures].[Ordered, pcs]>0 ) ,
)
The result is accurate but the query execution time is 3-4 minutes for 10 fact records, when i use multiple dimension. it is showing me 0 valus for this measure for all the members for the dimesion attribute which doen't have any customer order. example it shows all the member of date dimension. is there any way to reduce the rows. i think this is the reason to take more execution time.when i use EXCCLUDEEMPTY the result is NULL
count

Filter
(([Customer Order].[Dim Customer Orderkey].[Dim Customer Orderkey].members,

We have two measures
[Measures].[NSPO]
is in FACT1 Measure Group
[Measures].[NetSignedPremium] is in FACT2 Measure Group
The requirement is Measure.[NetPremium] should be the greater of
[Measures].[NSPO] OR [Measures].[NetSignedPremium].
All three measures are created in the cube and this logic is to be applied in the Calculations section of the cube.
Using an IIF statement like one mentioned below does the job, but data does not aggregate correctly for the
Measure.[NetPremium]
Measure.[NetPremium] = IIF ([Measures].[NetSignedPremium] > [Measures].[NSPO], [Measures].[NetSignedPremium] , [Measures].[NSPO])
To ensure that the columns are aggregated I have to use a SCOPE statement at the leaf level
[01 UWR Reference].[UWR Reference].Members
SCOPE(
FILTER( NONEMPTY( [01 UWR Reference].[UWR Reference].Members ) ,
( ( ([Measures].[Net Signed Premium Rcvd])
- ( [Measures].[NSPOTest] ) )
< 0 ) )) ;
This = [Measures].[Net Signed Premium Rcvd] ;
END SCOPE;
My problem is the FILTER within the SCOPE statement does not work. How to modify the filter in SCOPE? OR How to make IIF Aggregate correctly?

I want Wait time to continue to be displayed for all other months and roll up into the totals without the filtered value.

I am unable to find solution for the problem while writing a Named Set in my cube.
I have a calculated measures which gives me difference in Sales in PERCENTAGE (%).
When I try to filter out those product codes which went a less than 5 %, I get no records.
I have also tried to filter direct values lets say - Products with sales > 100000 which is working fine.
Following is sample of my Named Set
FILTER([X].[Products Code].members, [Measures].[Diff in Sales]<5)
I believe as the values are in percentage, I am facing this issue.

I am pretty new to MDX and am having trouble getting what I need out of this MDX query. Some business rules:
Gross Amount applies to all clients, whether Type A or Type B. I always want to return Gross Amount.Some clients are Type A, some are Type B, some are both, and some are neither.There are Type A Net Amount and Type B Net Amount values for all clients, but I only want to display the Type A Net value if the client is a Type A client, only Type B if the client is a Type B, or both for both, and neither for neither. I would like to return blank/null, not $0.00, for those values that should not be displayed.
Here's the basic query.
SELECT { [Measures].[Gross Amount],
[Measures].[Type A Net Amount],
[Measures].[Type B Net Amount]
} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY {[Dim Client].[Parent Client Code].[Parent Client Code] *
[Dim Client].[Child Client Code].[Child Client Code] *
[Dim Client].[Is Type A].CHILDREN *
[Dim Client].[Is Type B].CHILDREN
} ON ROWS
FROM ClientInfo
Here's the DESIRED output........

One of my models has order data, cost per order/invoice ID and then dimensions on Fiscal Year, category, etc...the usual.
A user wanted to search it for an exact order amount. (They knew for example that one of our accounts was not balancing by single order worth $746.13 and assumed it must be an order that was placed but never marked shipped that slipped through the cracks).
Now, in the model I have "order amount" as a field and then a measure that sums that.
I could expose that "order amount" field as a label and let them filter on it in Excel (and that works).
However, I haven't had any luck filtering on the actual measure "Total Order Amount". Such as OrderID-> View Filter -> "Total Order Amount" equals 746.13.
I assume this is due to a few things:
Measure calculates at different levels so filtering on a measure is difficult as you would have to place all the "slicers" and set them first before the measure would "exist" at a level where it could be $746.13. Orders by year would have $746.13 as part of it's year sum, but wouldn't exist as a stand alone line item orders by year 2015 might be 2 million.
Orders by category might exist at 500,000, 8,000, 15,146.36, etc... but not $746.13.
So I would need OrderID on there as a column so the measure could return at the value of $746.13 for one row for it to match the filter?
Basically:
1. Why it can't really filter on a measure?
2. Is there a better way to accomplish this other than exposing the actual column in the fact table "order amount" as it feels like that could cause all kinds of confusion if other users try to slice/filter on that not realizing exactly what it is meant to be?

The user wants to be able, using excel, to apply a filter to all measures in every measure group. I though that I can create a dimension with a single level with two members, let´s say "on" and "off" and depending on the selected member and using an IIF statement decide which formula applies to the calculated measures.
I have serious doubts about the performance and for this technique because I am thinking as a .Net developer and not as a cube developer. Maybe it is better to resolve it scoping the measures but I cannot figure it out.
