Hello !

 

Can you share how you condigured your Calculated Item ? 

Also, what value would you expect if not the last quarter from the actuals ?

I added a calculated item and selected “last quarter” . It has created the formula below.
Last quarter from actuals should to the sum of jan 23, feb 23 and march 23.
Currently it only retrieves March 23 value.

Hey, 

 

The aim of Last quarter is to take the value you had in the month, 1 quarter before, so not for the full quarter.

To get the full quarter, you can use the cumulate selector you have here available, cumulate over month and reset it every quarter. I think this would do the trick.

If yes, could you share the setup here via a screenshot ?

 

Thanks
