Hi!I want to add “Weeknumber” to my “Day” dimension.Since WEEKNUM() is not available, I want to use the equivalent of SHIFT/PREVIOUS to calculate the weeknumber.I have a dimension called Weeknumber (1-53), and would like to do something along the following line, in order map Days → Weeknumbers: //Check if first day of year, IF(LEFT(Day.'dd-MM-YYYY',5)="01-01" ,ITEM(1,Weeknumber.Week),// Else: check if workday = Monday then add 1 to week countIF(Day.'Day of Week' = 'Day of Week"."Monday",PREVIOUS(Day.Weeknumber)+1,//IF NOT Monday, then keep current weeknumPREVIOUS(Day.Weeknumber))However, both PREVIOUS and SHIFT does not seem to work. Is there a workaround?

Hello,In the table below i would like to to calculate the Variation % between YTD actual and YTD RF which are 2 calculated items ? Thanks for your help 

Hello,I have a metric where the data type is the month dimension and am struggling to figure out how to convert it to a Boolean metric with month as a dimension of that.The first metric is an assumed/forecasted launch date for each customer (ignoring that these are old customers and therefore in historical periods). With the second metric I am trying to convert that assumed launch date to a Boolean where any month is “TRUE” that is greater than the assumed launch date in the first metric. For example, the first line here would correspond with an assumed launch date of Aug-23, the second line with an assumed launch date of Jun-23 and so on (also ignoring that these are historical periods). 

I am trying to create multi year P&L views, with months in the columns.  After the last month of the year, I want to show the annual total, YoY $ value, and YoY % change. (Months->Annual Total->YoY $ change->YoY % change).  The challenges I’m encountering are as follows - example with numbered notes shown in snippet below:Inability to choose position of aggregators.  Pros of using aggregators vs calculated items are that gross margin % calcs roll up correctly, and the values are retained when I collapse the months and only want to show the annual total.    Gross margin % calculated items roll up incorrectly.  It displays the sum of the months’ percentages, rather than the annual gross profit value divided by the annual revenue value.  Pro of calculated item is ability to choose column positioning.  Is there any way to hide a value in a calculated item?  The YoY % calculation displays a nonsensical value when calculating against

Hello. I have created a table with multiple metrics. The calculations work currently, except the percentages are aggregating or calcing oddly when I display the table. When we’re looking at data at NOT the lowest level, the % is incorrect.In the screenshot below, I basically want the Account Churn % to display Churned Accounts / Active Accounts BOP. So 1%, 4%, 5% etc. I looked into Calculated Items, but doesn’t seem like that would work in this case. Am not looking to alter the metric itself, but rather to add a row for display purposes only.Thanks.

How do I get a unique count of months in a metric in a view?For instance, I have Revenue (Dim: Month): Jan23 : 10Feb23 : 15Mar 23 : 20 I’m looking at this metric in a quarterly view, Month > Quarter and I want to annualize this number. So the math would be (10 + 15 + 20) * 12/(3) (3 months in this time frame). I want this to recalc when I view it from a yearly perspective so it would be 12 months. Any ideas on this?  I tried doing Revenue [REMOVE COUNTUNIQUE: Month] but that just found the number of uniques in my Month Dim List and multiplied by that.

Hello!I am trying to build an org chart for my company. Most part is good to go, but I noticed that the “Position <> Manager” metric for Reporting seems to confuse the overall structure at the end. When looking at below snapshot, I clicked the ‘Strategic Finance’ team and employee A” is our CFO. My goal is to show “B” and “C” employees underneath “A” employee only because this flow is for the “Strategic Finance” department, However, it’s showing +6 who are NOT part of “Strategic Finance” department. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks!!   

Hello,I have used the LQ calculated item to create a table but the amount displayed in April 2023 LQ is the amount of jan 23 actual.  Can you help me ? Thanks  

When building & refreshing an existing connection to Pigment, the view I have saved does not pull through to google sheets in the format that I saved the view. It also does not pull through all the page filters that I have, specifically the years page filter.This causes the whole import to pull through for all existing years for all scenarios that I am pulling in. It also pulls through all data rows even if there is no underlying data. For example I am pulling a full P&L and instead of pulling through just the Revenue Accounts for Account L1 Net Revenue it also pulls through every Opex, CoR, etc. account L0. This causes a ton of extra useless empty rows in our google sheet. This is a lot to scroll past & causes noise in our workbooks. Is there a better workaround here? Right now I have one tab just for the Pigment connection & then have to manipulate the data on another tab to get the format cleaned up.
