How To Create Logical column For Lastyear To Till Date

Hi All,
I Have to calculate Lastyear to Till Date for Logical Column.
Ex:I have Time Dime and Fact column and Dimension columns.
jan 2011 to oct 2012.
Please Let me know.
Thanks,

Looks like you are not reading my messages
Since you are doing on logical columns getting this error.
Try this using physical columns then count from aggregate tab
CASE WHEN "Oracle Data Warehouse"."Catalog"."dbo"."Fact_W_SRVREQ_F_Open_Date"."OPEN_DT_WID" > 20110101 THEN "Oracle Data Warehouse"."Catalog"."dbo"."Fact_W_SRVREQ_F_Open_Date"."SR_WID" END
The same you can go with your variable
Or else the same can do by duplicating the existing Fact - CRM - Service Request"."# of SRs" and just add above code.
or just use the below you dont use sum since already aggregation is happend for # of SRs
CASE WHEN "Core"."Dim - Date"."Year" = VALUEOf("Warehouse Refresh Date Last Year"."CURRENT_CALENDAR_YEAR_LAST_YEAR") AND "Core"."Dim - Date"."Date" < VALUEOF("Warehouse Refresh Date Last Year"."LAST_REFRESH_DATE_LAST_YEAR") THEN "Core"."Fact - CRM - Service Request"."# of SRs" END
Hope this works, mark as correct

obiee-date-expressions-reference
Date Calculation OBIEE Expression Explanation :
First Day of the Previous Year
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_YEAR , -1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the current year. The second TIMESTAMPADD removes a year from the returned date for the First Day of the Previous Year.
First Day of the Current Year
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE) This calculation returns the first day of the year by deducting one less than the total number of days in the year.
First Day of the Next Year
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_YEAR , 1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the current year. The second TIMESTAMPADD adds a year to the date returned which will give the first day of the next year.
First Day of the Previous Month
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the Current Month. The second TIMESTAMPADD then subtracts one month from the first day of the Current Month arriving to the First Day of the previous month.
First Day of the Current Month
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE) This expression gets the current day of the month and subtracts one less than the current day to arrive at the first day of the month.
First Day of the Next Month
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, 1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the Current Month. The second TIMESTAMPADD then adds one month from the first day of the Current Month arriving to the First Day of the next month.
First Day of Current Quarter
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAY_OF_QUARTER( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE) This was included to show the calculations discussed above can be used with other functions. This is the same expression as the one that returns the first day of the current month except this one uses the DAY_OF_QUARTER property to return the first day of the current quarter.
Last Day of the Previous Month
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the Current Month. The second TIMESTAMPADD subtracts a month to arrive at the first day of the previous month.
Last Day of Current Month
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_MONTH , 1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE))) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD finds the first day of the current Month. The second TIMESTAMPADD adds one month to the date to arrive at the first day of the next month. The final TIMESTAMPADD subtracts one day from the returned date to arrive at the last day of the Current Month.
Last Day of the Next Month
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_MONTH , 2, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE))) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD finds the first day of the current Month. The second TIMESTAMPADD adds two months to the date to arrive at the first day of month after next. The final TIMESTAMPADD subtracts one day from the returned date to arrive at the last day of the Next Month.
Last Day of Previous Year
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1,
CURRENT_DATE)) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the current year. The second TIMESTAMPADD subtracts one day to arrive at December 31st of the previous year.
Last Day of Current Year
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_YEAR, 1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE))) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the current year. The second TIMESTAMPADD deducts one day to arrive at December 31 of the previous year. The third TIMESTAMPADD adds a single year to the date to arrive at December 31 of the Current Year.
Last Day of the Next Year
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_YEAR, 2, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE))) From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the current year. The second TIMESTAMPADD deducts one day to arrive at December 31 of the previous year. The third TIMESTAMPADD adds 2 years to the date to arrive at December 31 of the Next Year.
Last Day of Current Quarter
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_QUARTER , 1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAY_OF_QUARTER( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE))) Demonstrated using Quarters. From right to left the first TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the Current Quarter. The second TIMESTAMPADD returns the first day of the next quarter. The final TIMESTAMPADD subtracts a single day from the date to arrive at the last day of the Current Quarter.
Number of days between First Day of Year and Last Day of Current Month TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, CAST('2010/01/01 00:00:00' AS DATE), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_MONTH , 1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( CURRENT_DATE) * -(1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)))) For simplicity I hard coded the January 1, 2010 date and CAST it to a date. I could have used the First Day of the Current Year calculation but didn’t want to over clutter the example. The second part of the TIMESTAMPDIFF uses Last Day of the Current Month calculation to force the TIMESTAMPDIFF to calculate the number of days between the first day of the year and the last day of the current month.
=============
FYI, let say some example,
Last day of previous Quarter:
"GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."LQ_Position"."Business_Date"=TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAY_OF_QUARTER( "GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."MT_BUSINESS_DATE"."Business_Date") * -(1) + 1, "GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."MT_BUSINESS_DATE"."Business_Date"))
Last month last day:
"GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."LM_Position"."Business_Date"=
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -(1), TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , DAYOFMONTH( "GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."MT_BUSINESS_DATE"."Business_Date") * -(1) + 1, "GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."MT_BUSINESS_DATE"."Business_Date"))
Last year Last day
"GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."LY_Position"."Business_Date"=
TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , -1, TIMESTAMPADD( SQL_TSI_DAY , EXTRACT( DAY_OF_YEAR FROM "GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."MT_BUSINESS_DATE"."Business_Date") * -(1) + 1, "GPC_DataMart"."GPC_DataMart"."dbo"."MT_BUSINESS_DATE"."Business_Date"))

Why you have to pass 14 parameters for DELETE and UPDATE? Do you have any Primary Key? If you do NOT have primary key in your table then in case you have duplicate information, SQL will update both or delete them together. You need to provide DDL of
you table. What are the data types of fields?
