Hello.
I have an Order Fact with a Quantity Measure and 2 date dimentions (order open date and order closed date):
[Measures].[Quantity]
[OpenDate].[YMD]
[ClosedDate].[YMD]
I need to calculate the total quantity of open orders AS OF a given date (which would be a filter on open date). Open Orders would be defined as quantities where the "date filter" date falls in between the Open Date and and Closed Date (OpenDate<= DateFilter AND ClosedDate > (or >=) dateFilter). Orders can stay open from the beginning of time which means that I have to keep all orders in the Order Fact which is about 7 million rows.
I think that I would sum the quantity for all orders with open date <= date filter something like this:
Sum(PeriodsToDate([OpenDate].[YMD].[(All)]), [Measures].[Quantity])
But I have not idea how I would add the condition where ClosedDate > datefilter...(I believe this would be the same is remove rows where ClosedDate <= Datefilter)
I would appreciate any input.
Thanks, Renee.
