Title: Report Month AND Month YTD when User selects Month
Post by: Iggy on 24 Jul 2011 02:24:41 PM
Hello COGNOS community,

I am just getting started with Report Studio and have the following problem;

My Report source is TM1 and I am creating a crosstab report using report studio.

The problem I am having is that we have one dimension for [Month] this has elements for each month and consolidations for each month YTD (Year to Date).

I want the user to be prompted for the Month,  but somehow return columns in the crosstab for both Month and Month YTD.  Is there some way I can add the prompted month with |' YTD' to have this reported also? (like I would have done when reporting in Excel?)

It someone can can give me some pointers here I would be much appreciated.
