Current Year in a calculated field

I need to calculate how long a client has been with our company. I created a "inception date" field for when they became a client, but every new year I have to go in and update the formula with the current year. Is there a way this
formula can automatically update with each new year so I don't have to remember to do it manually (e.g., the 2013 is replaced with Year(Today) or something like that).

Lets assume that you somehow managed to replace 2013 with something more dynamic (e.g. workflow or whatever) but you do realize that your calculated column is not going to be update itself. Correct? You need to update the item to have the updated value anyway
in the calculated column.
Given that you need to update item at-least once to have the updated value.
You can automate this process either by using a service, a Visual Studio Workflow or SPD Workflow. If you use workflow the key is to run workflow on single item and let workflow update items in actual list. This can be easily achieve using VS workflow but
using SPD You may need some workaround. One example shown below.

Script to update a field for current year

Is it possible to have a field update to finish the current year? Example 20-- (the dashes to change to whatever year it is). I'm thinking that it's not possible but if someone knows how it can be done I would really appreciate help. Thanks
Sorry, I guess I need it to change the entire year, not just the ending. THanks
I've tried a few scripts that I found here, such as; year(dateAdd('yyyy', 1, now())) with no luck. I admit I have no knowledge of scripts and may be doing something wrong. Does the script go under the Action tab as a javascript or somewhere else (validation??) Any advice or help would be appreciated. I am using Acrobt Pro version 9.

You can not just cut and paste scripts since one needs to be aware of the object, the object's properties, and the object's methods that may need to be changed. Form your example it looks like you are trying to use a user defined function call and without the JavaScript for the function the code you posted will not work.
You will need to use the JavaScript Date object to obtain the current date. You can then use either the 'getFullYear()' or 'getYear()' method to the get the 4 digit year or the 2 digit year and mellenium inicator. From these numbers you can extract the 2 digit year by converting the numbers to strings and then extracting a sub string from the character string.
The following scripts are custom calculation scripts/
// using the getFullYear() method:
event.value = String(new Date().getFullYear()).substr(2,4);
// using the getYearmillenniumindicator() method:
event.value = String(new Date().getYear()).substr(2,4);
If you want the full year:
// using the getFullYear() method:
event.value = new Date().getFullYear();

MDX calculation based on date logic for the Jan 1 of current year through the 15th of the previous month

Hello,
We need some help with an SSAS MDX query based on date logic. One of the problems is that I don't have access to the Cube but have been given a query example with the logic needed for the calculation. Here's the scenario;
The ETL process will run on the first Tuesday after the 15th of a given month. The Analysis Cube data queried should include the current year up to the end of the previous month. For example, on May 19th
(the first Tuesday on or after the 15th) the query should include data from January 1st through April 30th.
The 15th of the month is not part of the query, it is a factor in when the query is run. The query will always be in terms of complete months.

Sum of Calculated Field

Hi,
I am using 9.0.2.39.1 and am having trouble summing up a calculated field. I have a crosstab layout like so:
                       MTD               YTD              CURRENT YR
2005                   $                 $                (decode function based on period)
2004                   $                 $                (decode function based on period)
2003                   $                 $                (decode function based on period)I put a grand total for MTD, YTD and Current YR, but it does not pick up the total sum for the Current Year calculated field. I then also tried a total just for the Current Year field, but it is just blank although that column has values for each row. Strangely the count/max..etc functions give me a value, just not sum. The calculation works perfectly just not the sum of it.
Any idea what I am doing wrong???

Hi,
You need to check note 208366.1 which explains why totals can be blank. Without knowing the detail of you decode function it is hard to say what needs to be changed. Try putting a sum in front of the decode e.g.
sum(decode(period, 'Jan period', value, 0))
Hope that helps,

Key figure comparision between current year and previous year

Hello collegues,
I have created a WEB Intelligence report with key figure ROI (return on investment which is calculated out of three other key figures (capital, revenue and costs). I would now like to calculate the percentage period (year) differences between key figure ROI - between current year (month) and previous year (month).
Do I have to add coding within a key figure formula within WEBI Rich Tech client or within universe builder.
The key figures were extracted from SAP BW and added to a universe which is basis for WEBI rich tech client report.
thanks and regards,
Christian

Hi Stratos,
so I see - i have to use the variable Editor and then define a measure and add coding in the formula field. Do you have an e-mail address ín order to send you the report and explain in more detail what I would like to see - here it is not possible to upload a report...
thanks and regards,
Christian

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.

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,

DAX Dynamic Banding | Calculated Member based on Calculated Field

Good morning,
I've created a Power Pivot model that measures the blood glucose levels of clinical patients at specific times of the day. The requirement is that this metric, let's call it GlucoseLevel, is always averaged as it wouldn't make sense to sum up the values.
To meet this first requirement, I set the "Summarize By" property of the GlucoseLevel column to "Average".
The second requirement is to band the GlucoseLevel values so that groups of people can be measured by this band rather than by the individual measure values. I created a banding table in Excel and then imported it into the Power Pivot model. The banding table
has three columns (BandName, MinValue and MaxValue) and has the following values:
VERYLOW: Min Value = 0; Max Value = 3.99
OK: Min Value = 4; Max Value = 6.99
WARNING: Min Value = 7; Max Value = 10.99CRITICAL: Min Value = 11; Max Value = 30.00
It is at this point where I face my challenge. I have a GlucoseLevel measure and I have a banding table. Great. The challenge is: How do I create a calculated, dynamic
member that will look at my GlucoseLevel measure (at whatever level), do a lookup to my banding table, and then return the "BandName" column from the Banding table at that specific level? So to clarify what I mean by level: I want to be able
to view the bandings at Year level, or a Month level, or even at a week level. Then depending on what level I am at, my measure should have a Band associated to it.
I've tried to solve this issue in a couple of ways:
Attempt 1
Create a calculated column in my fact table that contains a nested IF statement to manually band my GlucoseLevel values. This works fine if I view my data at the lowest level of granularity, however
it does not work if I start looking at my data at the day, week, month etc. levels
Attempt 2
1.) Create a calculated field (not a calculated column) that averages my GlucoseLevel measure. This is cool because it will average my measure at whatever level I am viewing it at. Let's call
this field Bob...
2.) Band my measure Bob by creating another calculated field (called PatientBand). This field uses my banding table (described earlier) in conjunction with my calculated field Bob. This works perfectly, except for one big flaw: Excel sees this banding field
as a measure, and not as something that I can use as a column / row...
So my question is: Can I trick Excel into viewing my PatientBand calculated field as an attribute, and not as a measure? And if not, how do I get around this challenge? Here is the DAX formula that I used to create my second calculated field "PatientBand":
PatientBand:=CALCULATE(
VALUES (Bandings[BandName]);
FILTER (
Bandings;
Test[Bob] >= Bandings[MinValue]
&& Test[Bob] <= Bandings[MaxValue]
Thanks!

So there are 2 ways that I can think of for doing that.
1) if you are only using MDX clients like Excel or Reporting services you can create a text based measure that returns the banding name. (Note that this sort of approach does not work at the moment with PowerView as it only displays numeric measures). This
would effectively let you show a label next to a reading as opposed to moving the reading under a given banding column.
Banding Name :=
CALCULATE (
VALUES ( Bands[BandName] ),
FILTER (
Bands,
[Average of GlucoseReading] >= Bands[BandMin]
&& [Average of GlucoseReading] <= Bands[BandMax]
&& NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Average of GlucoseReading] ) )
2) This next approach will show the results exactly as you had them in your sample screenshots. It just takes a slight bending of the DAX. I'm using a SUMX here, not because I want to sum anything, but because the "X" version of SUMX basically loops over
every row in the specified table and sums the expression in the second parameter. I have setup the second parameter so that it only returns a single value for the average if it is in the appropriate banding.
Banded Average:=IF (
HASONEVALUE ( Bands[BandName] ),
SUMX(
'Bands',
IF (
NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Average of GlucoseReading] ) )
&& [Average of GlucoseReading] >= MIN ( Bands[BandMin] )
&& [Average of GlucoseReading] <= MIN ( Bands[BandMax] ),
AVERAGE(Readings[GlucoseReading]),
BLANK()
,AVERAGE(Readings[GlucoseReading])

How to change the column value which is coming from DO by a calculated field?

Hi all,
I want to change a column value based on my calculated field value. I have a column which is coming from DO which is based on External Data Source. I have a calculated field in my report. When there is any change in the calculated field then the column which is coming from DO needs to be changed. It means the DO needs to get updated when there is a change in the calculated field. Or like if the calculated field meets some condition then I need to change/update the same in the DO. This has to be done on the fly. the report should not submitted for this. when there is a change in the calculated column the DO column needs to get updated.
Thanks,
Venky.

How to add a calculated field in a list definition (schema.xml)?

Hello,
I'm currently trying to add a calculated field to a list definition (schema.xml).
I have put the following code at the end of the schema.xml for the list I want to create. But when I deploy and activate the feature for the list, it doesn't appear in the list field.
<Field ID="{EE20EC4B-4216-4259-A84F-C478CE42B70F}" Name="EC_EventsMgmt_CalculatedTime" StaticName="EC_EventsMgmt_CalculatedTime" Group="EC_EventsMgmt" Type="Calculated" DisplayName="Calculated Time" Required="TRUE" Hidden="FALSE" ReadOnly="FALSE" Format="DateTime"> <Formula>=DATE(2009,1,1)+TIME(EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleHour,EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleMinute,0)</Formula> <FieldRefs> <FieldRef Name="EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleHour"/> <FieldRef Name="EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleMinute"/> </FieldRefs> </Field>
Could you please give me some help and explain me why it is not working?
Thanks a lot.

Hi there.
If I understand correctly, you create this list within the same feature?
If so, the list isn't available during the propagation, and therefore the calculated field can't be added.
If this is the case, then you could work around this by adding a feature activated event handler to your feature and add the calculated field programmatically in that event.
Hope this helps.

Magnus

Creating charts that represent current year in Months in order to show YTD performance by month

I continue to struggle with what, to me, seem to be the simplest things in SSRS. I have spent over two days trying desperately to get a chart to properly show the quantities of Manufacturing Orders that we have made each month, Year To Date.
Below is the closest I’ve been able to come and the axis is still off by one month and not in sync at all with my data.
Then when I run the report for other part numbers, that only have MO’s in say two months (Jan & Jun), they don’t even behave scalar and I get the following screwed up mess. Notice the two columns have decided to fill most of the scale and they
did not skip the four months between Jan and Jun and they also are completely out of sync with my scalar x-axis!
My goal is to create a chart that can be run for any part number on any day and show how many times it has been built during the current calender year. Chart should always show months of current year starting Jan on left and ending with Dec on
right (even if I am running report in February for example). Then for each month that we have data, it should show the QTY on the column chart and leave blank columns for months with no data.
Can anyone help me with this?
Chris

Hi Chirs,
From your desription, you want to createa a chart to show all the months on the chart no matter it has data on that month or not, rigth? If in this case, we can create an other dataset to show all the month, and then use the lookup function to get the month
QTY. The steps below are for you reference.
Create an other dataset use the query below.
DECLARE @TMP TABLE (Month nvarchar(20),QTY INT)
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Jan',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Feb',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Mar',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Apr',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Mat',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Jun',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Jul',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Aug',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Sep',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Oct',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Nov',0
INSERT @TMP SELECT 'Dec',0
SELECT * FROM @TMP
Drag [Month] filed to Category Groups and drag [QTY] field to Values.
Then change the of [QTY] to:
=Lookup(Fields!Month.Value,Fields!Month.Value,Fields!QTY.Value,"DataSet1")
The report looks liek below.

Write up for current year acquisition

Dear Friends,
I have acquired asset worth 10000 in current fiscal year (date 01.09.2008) and also calculated depreciation for 7 months ie upto 31.03.2009. We have posted depreciation through tcode AFAB.
Now we want to writeup some amount to this asset. Write up transaction is not allowing write up for this asset since it is current year acquisition. How should i write up now? Your guidance will be very helpful.
Regards

Hi,
as Paul stated already write-up is basically adjustment of PRIOR year depreciation. If you need to adjust current year information, you can either adjust the depreciation key, use a manual depreciation functionality, or for instance post positive (credit) unplanned depreciation. You have several possibilities to realize your requirement.
Regards,
Markus

Date VS Date Time in Calculated Field

I have a property for a patients records called Date of Birth. On the table defining it I saved it as a "date" type and It displays only
the date on the screen as I would like. For some reason though when I needed a calculated field in the Medication record I added a property to the patient records table that concatenated two fields BirthDate and the Age. I used the following code and then
added an other screen data item on the medication screen to pull the DoBA property up but got a Date/Time instead of just a Date.
partial void DoBA_Compute(ref string result)
// Set result to the desired field value
result = "DoB:" + BirthDate + " Age:" + Age;
//This is for the property "Date of Birth and Age"
//I also used the following code to calculate "Age"
partial void Age_Compute(ref int result)
// Set result to the desired field value
int age = DateTime.Now.Year - BirthDate.Year;
if (BirthDate > DateTime.Now.AddYears(-age)) age--;
result = age;
Images

I'm using cast instead of Convert.ToInt because the last round to value to upper int if value > 0.5 or to lower if value < 0.5 ( I don't remember now if equal goes to < or > ... read function doc ) while Cast to int do not round the value.
In my code the day of the birthday
still
marks
the
previous
age,
from the
day after
one more year.
by adding
+
1
age
increases
by the
day
of the birthday
