Hi.
I'm trying to design a report in Excel based on a cube that will default to the current reporting month (which is actually last month), but still allow the user to select a different month to report on. My date dimension table has a column called CurrentRepMonth, which is set to 'Current Reporting Month' for all days in the previous month.
My date dimension has a hierarchy of Year - Month - Date, and an attribute called 'Current Reporting Month'.
I have a calculation in my cube to get the YTD hours worked, based on the selected month:
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[Measures].[YTD - Hours Worked] AS AGGREGATE ( YTD ([Date].[Year - Month - Date].CurrentMember), [Measures].[Hours Worked]),
In excel, if you select a month in the filter, the YTD calculation worked. However, if you filter by Current Reporting Month, the calculation returns blank.
Any help is much appreciated.
