I have a metric containing data that I would like to associate to a dimension list property, the LASTNONBLANK formulae is not working.
Hi Khadija,
Typically, any formula that produces a one-dimension structure can be used in making a property in a dimension. You can use the Formula Playground in Automatic Structure and work towards a result that has a structure of one dimension. You’ll then be able to use that formula in a property of the same format.
For dimension-format items, we typically use the LASTNONBLANK aggregator to get rid of additional dimensions.
For example, if I have a metric that describes in which country my employees are in any given month (Country metric by Employee x Month), I can use the following formula to create a Last Country in my employee dimension: 'Country by Employee and Month'hREMOVE LASTNONBLANK: Month]
The formula needed and its result will entirely depend on your model though.
Is there an error message that you get I can help you with? If you share the structure of your source metric, I can probably help you get to a working formula.
