I'm new to MDX querying. I am having trouble changing how the MDX output is formatted. I have made a similar example using the "Adventure Works Internet Sales Model". See below:
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Calculate YTD] AS
Sum
(
periodstodate([Date].[Calendar].[Year],[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember)
,[Measures].[Internet Total Sales]
)
SELECT
{[Measures].[Internet Total Sales]
,[Measures].[Calculate YTD]
} ON COLUMNS,
[Date].[Calendar].[Month] ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works Internet Sales Model]
WHERE ([Date].[Date].&[2012-01-01T00:00:00]:[Date].[Date].&[2018-01-01T00:00:00])WHERE ([Date].[Date].&[2012-01-01T00:00:00]:[Date].[Date].&[2018-01-01T00:00:00])
the results looks like this:

What I would like to see is that the "[Date].[Calendar].[Month]" row to be displayed as the end of month date (e.g. 31-Mar-2019)
Welcome to SO!
You could add in an additional column showing the last day of each month:
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Last Day of Month] AS
[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember.LastChild.MEMBER_CAPTION
MEMBER [Measures].[Last Day of Month v2] AS
TAIL(EXISTING [Date].[Date].[Date].MEMBERS).ITEM(0).ITEM(0).MEMBER_CAPTION
MEMBER [Measures].[Calculate YTD] AS
Sum
(
periodstodate(
[Date].[Calendar].[Year],[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember
)
,[Measures].[Internet Total Sales]
)
SELECT
{
[Measures].[Last Day of Month]
, [Measures].[Last Day of Month v2]
,[Measures].[Internet Total Sales]
,[Measures].[Calculate YTD]
} ON COLUMNS,
[Date].[Calendar].[Month]
ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works Internet Sales Model]
WHERE
(
[Date].[Date].&[2012-01-01T00:00:00]:
[Date].[Date].&[2018-01-01T00:00:00]
);

I would like to get Cumulative Sum from Jan - Dec for each year
Something similar to Below But replace First Month and Last Month with the current year data. I have data from 2014 -2017
Sum(
[Ship Date].[Date].CURRENT_MEMBER.FirstMonth
: [Ship Date].[Date].CURRENT_MEMBER.LastMonth,[Measures].[Revenue]
)
You may be able to use this structure which I’ve taken from the MSDN YTD page:
WITH MEMBER MEASURES.YTDDEMO AS
AGGREGATE(YTD(), [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount])
SELECT {[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount], MEASURES.YTDDEMO} ON 0,
[Date].[Calendar].MEMBERS ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
Here is another alternative:
Aggregate(
PeriodsToDate(
[Date].[Calendar Hierarchy].[Year],
[Date].[Calendar Hierarchy].CurrentMember
),
[Measures].[Sales]
)
Below is my query.
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Quantity - Prior Year] As
(
PARALLELPERIOD(
[Date].[Fiscal Year].[Fiscal Year]
, 2
, [Date].[Fiscal Year].CurrentMember
)
,[Measures].[Order Quantity]
)
SELECT
{
[Measures].[Order Quantity],
[Measures].[Quantity - Prior Year]
} ON AXIS(0)
, {DrilldownLevel([Date].[Fiscal])} ON AXIS(1)
FROM [Adventure Works]
CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FORMATTED_VALUE
but the grand totals for calculated measure is always NULL?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
It looks like "All Periods" is the system-generated All member for the [Date].[Fiscal Year] hierarchy.
From this Microsoft doc, it is the member with pre-aggregated measure values for all members in the [Date].[Fiscal Year] hierarchy. When this member is passed to the ParallelPeriod() function, it doesn't make sense to lag the aggregated value back 2 fiscal years, so it returns null.
I would like to count the working days of a spesific time range and then find the Average Daily Dispatches.Currently the time range is at WHERE statement.
I believe that I have include the date range in the 1st Member but I can't figure how to count the dates in a month range.
Any suggestments?
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Working Days] AS
COUNT(Date.[Working Date].&[1])--Doesn't work
MEMBER [Measures].[Average Daily Dispatches] AS
[Measures].[Total Dispatches]/[Measures].[Working Days]
SELECT [Measures].[Average Daily Dispatches] ON 0
FROM [cube]
WHERE (
[Date].[Month].&[2015-01-01T00:00:00]:[Date].[Month].&[2015-08-01T00:00:00]
);
Use the NonEmpty function to yield those working dates on which there was a dispatch. Then use COUNT on top of this.
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Working Days] AS
COUNT
(
NonEmpty
(
[Date].[Working Date].MEMBERS,
[Measures].[Total Dispatches]
)
)
Some sort of alternative seems to exist using Exists/Existing (I think 1 is Monday in the AdvWrks cube!)
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[MondayCnt] AS
Count
(
Exists
(
(EXISTING
[Date].[Calendar].MEMBERS)
,[Date].[Day of Week].[1]
)
)
MEMBER [Measures].[Averge] AS
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] / [Measures].[MondayCnt]
SELECT
{
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
,[Measures].[MondayCnt]
,[Measures].[Averge]
} ON 0
,
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[6]
:
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2007]&[6] ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works];
The above results in the following:
Just need to get MAX date in ALL my Measures in the Cube. For instance, DateID is a Dimention, [Measure].[First Measure],...,...,[Second Measure].
How to get list of MAX(DateID) from all Measures in my Cube.
The following will get you the max date value associated with each measure...but you will have to manually create a calculated member corresponding to each measure.
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Max Date - Internet Sales Amount] AS
TAIL(
NONEMPTY(
[Date].[Date].[Date]
,[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
)
,1
).Item(0).MemberValue
MEMBER [Measures].[Max Date - Reseller Sales Amount] AS
TAIL(
NONEMPTY(
[Date].[Date].[Date]
,[Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]
)
,1
).Item(0).MemberValue
SELECT
{
[Measures].[Max Date - Internet Sales Amount],
[Measures].[Max Date - Reseller Sales Amount]
} ON 0
FROM
[Adventure Works]
If you want to get the single max date across all measures in the cube, you'll need to take a different approach.
SELECT
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON COLUMNS
,Tail
(
[Date].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].MEMBERS
,2
) ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works];
Above MDX query gives me output as :
Year Internet Sales Amount
CY 2003 $9,791,060.30
CY 2004 $9,770,899.74
I understood how this query worked but I want to create Calculated measure in a cube which will always give me sum of bottom 2 years. How to do this? I am a newbie to SSAS. I am good at designing simple measures and dimensions but when it comes to using MDX, I am mostly stuck.
PS: I tried using TopCount, BottomCount etc but here I want to order by "Year", which is a dimension.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

The following query calculates a measure for sum the the last 2 years of the Date dimension:
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Sales from the last 2 Years]
AS Aggregate( Tail( [Date].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].Members, 2)
, [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
)
SELECT { [Measures].[Sales from the last 2 Years]
} ON COLUMNS
, { Tail( [Date].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].Members, 2)
} ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
Other interesting query, would be calculating a measure for the sum of each year and its previous:
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Sales from 2 years]
AS Aggregate( { [Date].[Calendar Year].CurrentMember.PrevMember
: [Date].[Calendar Year].CurrentMember }
, [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
)
SELECT { [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
, [Measures].[Sales from 2 years]
} ON COLUMNS
, NON EMPTY
{ [Date].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year]
} ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
It does a sum, because the aggregation type of the measure [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] is Sum, and the Aggregate function aggregates according to the measure's aggregation type.
