CUBE, YTD and FULL year!

[Jeka]

Can somebody please explain if this is possible to do!

I'm creating crosstab report in RS using cube.

Need to see last 7 month based on the date user will select at prompt.

So i created a data item with [Ledger].[Time].[By Month].[Month] -> ?Month?

than created  2nd data item with set(lag([Current Month];0);lag([Current Month];1);lag([Current Month];2);lag([Current Month];3);lag([Current Month];4);...and so on

But i have to created two charts in the same report 2 Line charts with makers:
This is where i have a question my X-Axis:
Need to show on 1st chart YTD based on user selection (If Selected Oct-06 then Jan-06 to Oct-06) and  2nd would show full year ( no matter if data exists for full year ---------If Selected Oct-06 then Jan-06 to Dec-06)
path ([Ledger].[Time].[Time].[Month]->:[PC].[@MEMBER].[20060101-20060131]) for Month but caption is Jan-06


I'm confused how can i use  ?Month? to get YTD and Full year ?
Thank-you for your help!

P.S., Blom sorry for adding an extra 'O' :)

Maybe not perfect but works
Data Items:
1. Months: [xxx].[All Time Periods].[Month]->?Month?
2. YTDset: periodsToDate([xxx].[All Time Periods].[All Time Periods].[Year],[Month])
3. YTD:  total(currentMeasure within set [YTDset]) 

4. allYEAR:  parent(parent([Month]))
5. YearSet: periodsToDate([xxx].[All Time Periods].[All Time Periods].[Year],[allYEAR])
6. Year : total(currentMeasure within set [YEARset])

Thank-you so much!
The 1st two steps worked exactly how I need it.
Showed all months for YTD on the graph.

Steps from 4-5
Step four is exactly the same result as step 5.
Shows total for full year BUT I need to see all months for that year!
I tried children([alllYEAR]) and it gave all of the 2nd level for year which is QUATER named it [AllQuater]
Than I tried to do children([AllQuater])
but keep getting
Invalid coercion from 'memberSet' to 'member, measure' for 'children([Full Quater])'.
i tried other functions but i get the same error!
Thank-you!

Got it to work with descendants([Full Quater],1)

Thank-you!

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to show YTD as single value.
Right now when i use  YTD data item i see all the months BUT I would like to see as one, only current month that will include total of all months?

I know I can do total([Measure]........is there any other way without using [measure]



Thank-you!
