I have two data providers with common dimension and
measures. The only difference between two data providers is
in condition 'Fiscal Year'.One data provider calculates for
current year and other one calculates for previous year. So
in prompts if I am passing 2008 as current year then the two
data providers should be able to calculate for current year
and previous year individually.
So Can anybody tell me how to do calculation in data providers.
( I am using BO WebI report )
Answer Posted / gowthami
Create two objects in universe YEAR and YEAR-1
DP1:
Select panel: Other objects + Year +Year-1
Filter Panel: Year=prompt
DP2:
Select panel: Other objects + Year
Filter Panel: DP2.Year=(Use 'select object from another query') DP1.Year-1
Explanation:
DP1:
Assume that year=2014
Filter Panel: Year=(prompt) 2014
Select panel: Other objects + 2014(Year) +2013 (Year-1)
DP2:
Filter Panel: (DP2.Year) 2013 = 2013 (DP1.Year-1)
Select panel: Other objects + (Year) 2013
Since we take the year-1 from data provider 1 the DP2 will always give you the previous year data.
Thanks
