Post by: daya007 on 05 Aug 2010 11:08:13 AM
Hi TM1 Gurus

I have a cube view like the foll
______________________________________________________________________________
Year Dim(To select years from 2008-2010)


------------EAD(Current)----EAD(Forecast)
q1
---Jan
---Feb
---Mar
q2
---Apr
---May
---Jun
q3
---Jul
---Aug
---Sep
q4
---Oct
---Nov
---Dec

We have values for Ead(Current) and for EAD (forecast)they want to use previous month data. For jan 2010 u should have dec 2009 data(of Ead current), for feb 2010 u should have jan 2010 data(of Ead Current)

How can i do it with less rules, like i dont want to write rule for every month.Please suggest me the best way to do it.

Thanks
Daya

You could use the index (dimix) in rule. Which it seems you don't want to or use an attrib in a variable -1 to make forecast=to current-1
