Current Year Filter

Hi Gurus,
I have one simple report. I have to filter that report for current year.
Then I created filter as Year(ClosedDate) = YEAR(CURRENT_DATE).
But it is not working my Question is how can I apply current year filter to report?
Would be appreciated for your help

Hi every one thanks for your response.
In database i have "closed Date" column. in my report i am using YEAR(Closed Date) and i am applying filter to this column as YEAR(CURRENT_DATE). i want display all current year columns only.( Report is working fine if i hardcode like YEAR(Closed Date) = 2010.)
when ever i apply YEAR(Closed Date)=YEAR(CURRENT_DATE) then i am not getting any values becasue in SQL ( i saw in log file) it is not passing value of 2010 it is passing YEAR(CURRENT_DATE) with in single quote. like YEAR(Closed Date)= 'YEAR(CURRENT_DATE)' .
i did try with CAST function it did not work how can i pass the current year value in to the filter.
how can i solve this issue please help me.

How to create Current Year Filter at Universe Level ?

Hi,
I want to create a Current Year, Next Year and Last Year filters at Universe Level.
Can anyone help me with this.
I am using Netezza database and not able to find the appropriate date function in Netezza to accomplish this.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Hi,
You would somehow need to extract the Year part from the system date..
then
Current Year = Year
Next Year would be i.e Current Year + 1
Last Year would be i.e Current Year - 1
I guess this is the simple part... but you would need to find those functions on your RDBMS..
Hope this helps

Filter measure column for current year

Hi,
I'm stuck up with issue, we have a report from three tables D1, D2 and F1. In which D1 is time dimension. Now we have report from D2 and F1 with measures, and the report is placed in Dashboard which is having year prompt.
F1 is joined with D2 and D1 Time dimension as well, the requirement is in the report one of the measure column say X should always show the values for current year, while others will show according to prompt values.. In short I want to display one of the measure column for current year, even though the user selects the prompt value for year earlier to it the values should not change.
Please let me know, how to achieve this.
Thanks in advance

I think you can still solve this.
Whatever Srini said keep it.
Now for the date prompt create a presentation variable.
pass this presentation variable in the expression for measure which you don't want the current year.
case d1.year=@{presentationvarialbe} then sum(f1.x) else 0 end
you can also use the filter expression too.
remove year prompt filter from the report. and then add a new filter for the measure as<>0.

Use FI Posting date as a filter value, can I get YTD for current year?

Dear Expert,
I work on a BI report which calculate the YTD key figure (restricted by 0CYEAR and =< 0CMONTH).
One of the requirement for the report is to allow user to enter a value for a date using FI Posting date (although this is optional).
Without entering the value for FI Posting date, my report works fine.
But once FI Posting date is entered, no data found.
I expect that when the value for the FI Posting date is entered, the YTD value will be calcuated starting from the Jan 1 of that FI Posting year to the FI Posting date entered.
But this seems not happen.
Could you help me to resolve this problem?
If there is a better solution, please let me know.
Very appreciated.
Arthur

Hi Dipika,
Thanks for your reply.
In my report, FI Posting date is a free characteristic, which user can optionally select it and fiter it for a specific FI Posting Date. Do you consider it as a global filter?
my query structure is as below:
rows: profit center, department, manager
columns: YTD for current year, YTD for Previous year, the difference betwwen the two
The requirement is when user enter a FI Posting date, use it to restrict the KF shown above.
For example, if the FI posting date is March 15, 2008, then YTD for current year should be restricted by the period between Jan 1, 2008 and March 15, 2008 and YTD for previous year should be restricted by Jan 1, 2007 and March 15, 2007.
Do you have any idea how to implement this requirement in term of FI Posting date?
Thanks and appreciated.

Variable Report Filter (Current Year)

Dear Gurus,
I need a report which always will work with current year measure. (Without asking to user in selection screen) The system should automatically assign the current year. I created an object in universe. In definition tab, in the select statement I wrote to_char(sysdate,'yyyy') . But, in report and while the system gives an error message like "Parse failed. Exception: DBD, The supplied XML is not valid. to_char(sysdate, 'yyyy')State: N/A". I think the formula is wrong but I wrote it by referencing OSS note 1381486. Are there any suggestion? Thank you.

Hi,
This should have been posted in the designer section, but...
I think I know why you are having problems getting a right answer, the parse failed message says:
The supplied XML is not valid.
Which leads me to believe you are using an OLAP universe (on top of BW may be?), all the solutions given here are for SQL access.
Unfortunately, there is no string handling possible in an OLAP universe on top of BW, you would have to resort to solving this in the underlying BEx query for this universe.
You can think along the lines of using a BEx variable that is input ready, takes multiple values, is mandatory and has a default value filled with by a user exit (which makes it default to current year).
You can show the prompt message of the BEx variable for when the user wants to select different year(s).
Not showing the prompt and leaving it empty will trigger the default.
Good luck,
Marianne

Parameter for current year and previous year

Hi all,
I currently have 2 reports where the query is the same except in the where clause I have it filtered to current year and previous year based on the List_Date. I would like to make this one report with a parameter of Current or Previous year.
Would I create 2 more datasets one for current and another for previous? I would think there is a easier way. Any help or direction would be great.

If you define a parameter in SSRS, you can use it's value in your query. Just make sure the parameter name, and CASE (SSRS is case sensitive when it comes to parameters) are the same in SSRS and your query. There's a parameter tab on the dataset properties.
It SHOULD auto fill, but it never hurts to check, just in case.
Don't forget to mark helpful posts, and answers. It helps others to find relevant posts to the same question.
Yes it did auto fill the parameter tab in the dataset and I get a parameter to enter the year when I preview the report. Still a little confused on how I do current or previous year. Are the next steps what I need to do?
@yearParam parameter:
1) Create Available or Default values
2) Current and Previous year as label
3) For Value do I need to use a expression for current year =Year(now()) and previous Year?
4) Add a filter on the tablix for list_date?

Hi Cris,
Follow Below steps:
1.     Create one variable as below:
        =[Date] Where( [Date] = Max([Date]) In([Emp ID]))
2.     Now Select your table. Go to Analysis > Filter. Click on "Add filter", Select the variable created                          above. Now put the filter as "Is not null".
You will get desired data.

Current Year Formula Variable with SAP-Exit

Hi Experts ,
Is there any SAP Exit Formula Variable avaliable that we can use in BEX which gives us the Current Calander Year?
I am able to find the current fiscal period ie "0F_CUFPE" which provides the current posting period/month.
On similar basis, I need a FV which provides me the Current Calender Year.
Please note that I do not need Characteristic Variables for Fiscal Year .
Regards
Dipali

Hi,
If you're refering to the InfoObject 0CALYEAR, there is an exit variable available called: 0CYEAR - Current Calendar year
Which will filter on the current year.

MDX syntax for current year in a Pre-defined condition

Hi,
I'm looking for assistance in building a Pre-defined condition in a universe based on an MSAS 2005 OLAP cube, that only returns the current year.
My year is defined as [Time Accounting].[Accounting].[Accounting Year]
I can create a Pre-defined filter that accepts a constant value as follows:
<FILTER KEY="[Time Accounting].[Accounting].[Accounting Year]">
     <CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal">
          <CONSTANT CAPTION="2008"/>
     </CONDITION>
</FILTER>
and it works fine, however, I would like to make it dynamic.
There is an attribute called current year that is defined as [Time Accounting].[Accounting Year].[Accounting Year].[Current Year].[Value] but when I try and put this into my pre-defined filter nothing is returned:
<FILTER KEY="[Time Accounting].[Accounting].[Accounting Year]">
     <CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal">
          <CONSTANT CAPTION="[Time Accounting].[Accounting Year].[Accounting Year].[Current Year].[Value]"/>
     </CONDITION>
</FILTER>
Is this possible? What am I doing wrong?
What I'm ultimately aiming for is a rolling 12 month condition.
Thanks,
Colin

Hi,
In OLAP universe, you cannot define a filter with CAPTION = another universe object.
What you can do is CAPTION = String or CAPTION = @Prompt.
By the way, if you want to achieve what you are requiring, I suggest you create a calculate expression such as:
<EXPRESSION>
IIF([Time Accounting].[Accounting Year.].CurrentMember.Properties("Name") = [Time Accounting].[Accounting Year.].CurrentMember.Properties("Current Year"), 1, 0)
</EXPRESSION>
Then you can define your filter on your new calculated expression and the operator to Equal and CAPTION = 1

Current Year and Previous Year (derived) data comparison

Scenario:
Dimension Table for Date:
-Current Year
-Previous Year
-and other date related fields
Fact Table:
-Sales (contains current year sales depending on the filter set)
*Filter on Year
Would anyone know how will I create a measure for Previous Year Sales?
So that whenever my report shows the current year (for example: 2009) data of my sales, I can also have a column that would also display the previous year data and it will automatically know that it would display the previous year data of the Current year displayed in my report.
Also, how to derive the percentage change of this 2 columns.
Year: 2009
Branch --- Current Year Sales (Sales from Fact table) 2009 --- Previous Year Sales 2008???
I want to add the Current Year Sales And Percentage Change of Sales in the Business Model/Mapping Section. so that it would be available in the presentation layer of Oracle Answers.
Thanks.

Use column filters. Click on the fx button on your Sales column. Click on the Filter button. Now go to the Time.Year column you have and click on it. When the filter window comes up, click on Advanced and convert the filter to SQL. Now insert the Current Year column so that you have Time.Year = "Current Year" Click "OK."
Get another Sales column and put it in your workspace. Follow the above procedure except this time use th Previous Year column.
Now you have two Fact columns, one that filters for the Current Year and one that filters for your Previous Year.
Now for your variance, click on one more column and place it in your workspace. Click on the fx button. This time click on the "Column" button. You will see a list of your columns. From this, create the (Current Year)-(Previous Year)/(Previous Year)*100.00. In the Data Format tab, change the format to percentage.
You also have the option of creating the above calculations in the BMM layer too.

Displaying current year and previous year's data.

hi all,
we have fields like doc.no, company code, costcenter, posting date, year etc... in a query.
we are using this query to display data in VC,
how can i display the current year and previous year's data in two different tables using the available fields.
any help will be highly appreciated.
thanks,
Rk

Hi Rk,
You can achieve your requirement using 'Filter' operator. Drag one 'Filter' operator into visual composer story board and drag the output into filter and add condition(Check year=2008) and drag one table from filter. For another table use another filter and change the condition.
Hope it helps...

Expression - First date and last date of current month, current year

Hi
I need to have 2 ssrs expression as I can use as default parameters in my report where I can - out from my Time dimension, get the
first date of the current, current year - and one where I get last date, current month, current year.
My data source is a SSAS cube and my timedimension is structured like this:
[Time].[Days].&[2009-01-16T00:00:00]
Any suggestions how to solve this ?

Hi ,
You can use below in Default Values in ssrs ;
for first Day of current month and year
="[Time].[Days].&[" +Format(dateadd("m",0,dateserial(year(Today),month(Today),1)), "yyyy-MM-dd")+"T00:00:00]"
output will be ;
[Time].[Days].&[2014-09-01T00:00:00]
For last day of current month and year
="[Time].[Days].&[" +Format(DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), "1").AddMonths(1).AddDays(-1), "yyyy-MM-dd")+"T00:00:00]"
output will be ;
[Time].[Days].&[2014-09-30T00:00:00]
Please correct me if I misunderstood your requirement.
Thanks

SSRS Matrix report. Variance expression by Month. Need to compare month from prior year to current month of current year VS2010

Please help. I have a matrix report. In the report I have row group PO Type. One the Column groups I have a parent group by Fiscal Year, and then a child group by Month. When I run the report, I get two years of data back broken
out by month. Please see below.
Now here is where I am getting stuck. I need to take the variance between the current month of the current year, from the same month of the prior year. So I need to show the difference between Oct , 2014 from Oct, 2013. November, 2014 from November
2013... etc. etc.
In the example below, how do I create a column or row showing the variance for Contracts for October 2014. I need to take the contracts for October 2014 which is 3 and subtract that from October 2013 which is 8. Any suggestions? How do I do that
for each month? Then I need to do it for the quarter... then the year? But I'll be happy if I can just get the month working first.
Any help will be appreciated.
here is what my rdl file looks like.
Here is what my report looks like when I render it.

Hi Adrian_s2012,
According to your description, you want to compare values for the month of current year with the month of prior year and get the variance. Right?
In Reporting Services, we don't have any function to get this "Year to Year" Growth. In this scenario, if you data source is a cube, we suggest you use Analysis Services to achieve your requirement. If this data source is just from database, it will be hardly
to calculate the variance because we need to compare the values within every two different column group and matrix generate adjacent columns one by one. Even we make it by using custom, every time executing the long code when generating result
in a cell will reduce a lot of performance, we really don't suggest to do that in SSRS. Here is a thread with much easier requirement, please take a reference of that:

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Fixed Asset: Current Year Depreciation

Dear Experts,
Previously, fixed assets was managed manually in an excel sheet and depreciation was calculated manually in the excel sheet.
My client wants to start using the FA Addon in March. I managed to import all the fixed asset master data with its Cost, Acc. Depn and NBV. They all tally with the GL balances as at 31.12.2010 which is the last day of the accounting year.
However, I have problem with the current year accumulated depn figure. When I run depreciation for Jan-Feb, the figure does not tally with the GL balances as at 28.02.2011.
For example:
Fixed Asset Cost: $5,859.00
In SAP B1
Depreciation method: Straight-line depreciation
Calculation medthod: Percentage of Acquisition Value
Percentage: 33.33%
Planned monthly depreciation: $162.77 <-- Not sure how B1 get this figure
Therefore, accumulated depreciation for current year as at 28.02.2011 = $325.54
Manual via Excel
Depreciation method: Straight-line depreciation
Calculation medthod: Percentage of Acquisition Value
Percentage: 33.33%
Accumulated depreciation for current year as at 28.02.2011= ($5,859 x 33.33%) / 12 x 2 = $325.47
How do I get the current year depreciation to tie with the GL?

Hi Joyce,
I understand the issue you are facing is that
accumulated depreciation for current year as at 28.02.2011(calculated by Fixed assets addon) = $325.54,
but
accumulated depreciation for current year as at 28.02.2011(calculated by excel)= ($5,859 x 33.33%) / 12 x 2 = $325.47
you want to know how system calculate the accumulated depreciation as $325.54?
in order to make it clear,
please let me know how did you define the FA master data,such as the net book value,useful life,remaing life and so on.
Please check the FA master data->general tab and calculation tab,as it is not possible to attach the screenshot to show the relevant data,please log a SAP message for the further assistance.
Kind regards,
Eleven
