I have Date,product,Quantity_Sold columns and I want
Product, MTD(month Till date),YTD(Year Till Date) as output.
Can anyone help me with the logic in getting MTD i.e
quantity sold from 1st of this month to till date (i.e. 01-
11-2013 to 26-11-2013) and YTD i.e QTD sold from 1st date
of the year to till date(i.e. 01-01-2013 to 26-11-2013).
Sample output model:
Product MTD YTD

HI All,
Follow below steps to achieve this
1) In Filter condition place the below condition (to_char([START_DATE],'YYYY')=to_char({sysdate},'YYYY') and [START_DATE] <= {sysdate})
2)Create one Derived colum as MTD and in Expression use below code
case when (to_char([START_DATE],'MM')=to_char({sysdate},'MM') and [START_DATE] <= {sysdate})
then [Quantiry] end
Next in properties if this column for aggrigate Function and for Rollup Aggrigate Function change 'automatic ' to 'None'.
3) create one more Derived column as YTD and in expression use below code
case when (to_char([START_DATE],'YYYY')=to_char({sysdate},'YYYY') and [START_DATE] <= {sysdate})
then [Quantity] end
here sysdate is oracle date function.
Thats it .
