Dynamic Logic without using Virtual Characteristics/Key Figures

Question

Hi,
I am new to Bex so please do let me know if this can be done without using virtual keys or characteristics.
Logic should start processing from condition 1 to 4 sequencially.. If condition 2 is true, conditions 3 and 4 should not be processed.
<u>Conditions</u>
1. Column A if  Sales value is between  10 - 20
2. Column B if  Sales value is between  15 - 25
3. Column C if  Sales value is between  20 - 30
4. Column D if  Sales value is between  25 - 35
Scenerio 1 :
Sales value = 16
Based on this scenerio, the sales value should be displayed in column A only.

Answer 1

Guys,
I agree that this is a solvable problem if there are no overlapping conditions but my requirements do have them. I might have over simplify the problem or maybe there is a better way to do this. Here is the real scenario.
YTD = Year to Date Sales is the total dollar amount of sales from January 1, XXXX through the last day of the previous month.
LYTD = Last Year to Date Sales is the total dollar amount of sales from January 1, (XXXX – 1 year) through the last day of the previous month one year prior.
The order by which the logic will check each customer sites classification is as follows:
1. New Account
2. No Purchase
"A customer site is considered a <b>New Account:</b>
IF LYTD had zero sales activity
"A customer site is considered a <b> No Purchase</b>:
IF a customer site had zero sales activity in the previous 3 months
<b>AND</b> a customer site had sales activity within the report period (i.e YTD)
Jan 2007 >>>>>> $100
Feb 2007 >>>>>> $0
March 2007 >>>> $0
April 2007 >>>>> $0
Jan 2006 >>>>>> $0
Feb 2006 >>>>>> $0
March 2006 >>>> $0
April 2006 >>>>> $0
<u>Scenerio 1</u>
I run a report on the 15th of May 2007.
The first column has the <b>New Account</b> logic. Based on the 2006 sales data,  LYTD is $0 since there is no sales activity from Jan - April 2006. So the sales data will fall under the first column since the new account logic is true.
The second column has the the <b>No Purchase</b> logic. Based on the 2007 sales data, YTD is $100 since there was sales activity from Jan - April 2007. At the same time the previous 3 months (Feb - April 2007 ) has $0 sales. Based on this logic the sales data will fall under the second column since the no purchase logic is also true.
Now both the columns have data. This is the overlapping scenario I was referring to.
That is why I need to process the column logic sequentially. Once a condition is true , I need to break and move on to a new row.
Thanks
