i need sales amount of first month of each quarter
WITH SET [FIRSTMONTHOFQTR] AS
DESCENDANTS(
DESCENDANTS(
[Date].[Calendar].CURRENTMEMBER,
[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Quarter]
),
[Date].[Calendar].[Month]
)
SELECT {
[Measures].[Sales Amount]
} ON COLUMNS,
{
[FIRSTMONTHOFQTR]
} ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works];
With above im getting each month but i need only first month. how can i filter that?
This is one approach:
WITH
SET [Qtrs] AS
[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Quarter]
SET [FIRSTMONTHOFQTR] AS
Generate
(
[Qtrs] AS s
,Head(Descendants(s.CurrentMember,[Date].[Calendar].[Month]))
)
SELECT
{[Measures].[Sales Amount]} ON COLUMNS
,[FIRSTMONTHOFQTR] ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works];
It returns the following:

The below query works okay.
With Member PyMonthSales as
SUM(PARALLELPERIOD([Date].[Calendar].[Month], 1),[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount])
select
{PyMonthSales} on Columns,
[Date].[Calendar].[Month] on Rows
FROM
(
Select {
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[5], [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[4]
} on Columns
From [Adventure Works]
)
But I just want one Grand total. So I removed the rows, on the above query
With Member PyMonthSales as
SUM(PARALLELPERIOD([Date].[Calendar].[Month], 1),[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount])
select
{PyMonthSales} on Columns
FROM
(
Select {
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[5], [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[4]
} on Columns
From [Adventure Works]
)
This is where the problem starts. Returns null. Any assistance would be great.
Thanks for your time.

It ended up a bit messy!!
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].x AS
Aggregate
(
Generate
(
{
[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[5]
,[Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2006]&[4]
}
,{
ParallelPeriod
(
[Date].[Calendar].[Month]
,1
,[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember
)
}
)
,[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
)
SELECT
x ON 0
FROM [Adventure Works];
The thing I kept forgetting was the curly brackets around the ParallelPeriod section - without those an exception is raised because Generate always wants a SET as its second argument.
I am trying to implement something as follows:
WITH MEMBER Measures.Test2 AS
Sum
(
{
[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2006]
,[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2007]
}
,[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
)
SELECT Measures.Test2 ON COLUMNS
FROM [Adventure Works];
But i want the new measure Test2 to be sliceable according to the Calendar Year dimension. So i want something like
SELECT {Measures.Test2} ON 0,
{[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].MEMBERS} ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works];
This is giving the same value for both the years 2006 and 2007.
In essence i want to create a member by taking a subset of an existing measure and then using it for further calculations
This script is not valid mdx:
SELECT (Measures.Test2,[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year] ON COLUMNS
FROM [Adventure Works];
You have a single ( before Measures.
Also you look like you're about to add a tuple ON COLUMNS which is not allowed. Only sets are allowed on rows and columns:
SELECT
{Measures.Test2} ON 0,
{[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].MEMBERS} ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works];
Try the following:
WITH
MEMBER Measures.Test2 AS
Sum
(
Intersect
(
{[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember}
,{
[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2006]
,[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2007]
}
)
,[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
)
SELECT
[Measures].test2 ON COLUMNS
,{[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].MEMBERS} ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works];
The above returns this:
Or maybe all you want is a subselect:
SELECT
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON COLUMNS
,{[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].MEMBERS} ON ROWS
FROM
(
SELECT
{
[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2006]
,[Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2007]
} ON 0
FROM [Adventure Works]
);
i have this query, i need to implement for two dimension
WITH
SET [TCat] AS
TopCount([Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory],10,[Measures].[Sales Amount])
MEMBER [Product].[Subcategory].[Other] AS
Aggregate([Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory] - TCat)
SELECT { [Measures].[Sales Amount] } ON COLUMNS,
TCat + [Other] ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
I try but it is not working for two dimension
WITH
SET FIPS as
[Geography].[State-Province].[State-Province]
//TopCount([Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory],10,[Measures].[Sales Amount])
SET [TCat] AS
Generate( {FIPS}, CrossJoin( {[Geography].[State-Province].CurrentMember}, topsum( ([Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory]), 2, [Measures].[Sales Amount] ) ))
MEMBER [Product].[Subcategory].[Other] AS
Aggregate(Except( [Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory].Members, TCat))
SELECT
{ [Measures].[Sales Amount] } ON COLUMNS,
Union(
TCat , {[Geography].[State-Province].[State-Province],[Product].[Subcategory].[Other]} ) ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works];
Try using Except.
WITH
SET [TCat] AS
TopCount([Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory],10,[Measures].[Sales Amount])
MEMBER [Product].[Subcategory].[Other] AS
Aggregate(Except( [Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory].Members, TCat)
SELECT { [Measures].[Sales Amount] } ON COLUMNS,
Union( TCat , {[Product].[Subcategory].[Other]} ) ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
I am trying to work out how I can get a total for a level in a user defined hierarchy. For example if I do (using Adventure works here):
SELECT [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON 0,
([Date].[Calendar Year].ALLMEMBERS * [Date].[Month of Year].ALLMEMBERS) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
I get totals for each pair of year/month values.
How can I rewrite this query using the Calendar user hierarchy in the Date dimensions? Eg something like:
SELECT [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON 0,
([Date].[Calendar].[Year] * [Date].[Calendar].[Month]) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
You can use
SELECT [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON 0,
Hierarchize([Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year] + [Date].[Calendar].[Month]) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
This will show you each year containing its value (which is the sum of the months contained in it) before the months.
The + is the short form of Union in MDX, and Hierarchize sorts a set in hierarchical order, which means parents before children.
And if you want something similar to your first result, the closest thing I can imagine would be via calculated measures like this:
WITH Member Measures.Year AS
IIf([Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember.Level IS [Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year],
[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember.Name,
Ancestor([Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember, [Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year]).Name
)
Member Measures.Month AS
IIf([Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember.Level IS [Date].[Calendar].[Month],
[Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember.Name,
'All Months'
)
SELECT {
Measures.Year,
Measures.Month,
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
}
ON 0,
Hierarchize([Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year] + [Date].[Calendar].[Month]) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
Note that calculated members need not return numbers, they can as well return strings.
Using allmembers as you have it should return you the ALL line and then each year and each month. If you are interested in only the all line you can change you query to:
SELECT [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON 0,
([Date].[Calendar Year] * [Date].[Month of Year]) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
Notice how it is specifying only the Dimension and the hierarchy.
If you wanted to get the data without the all line use the following:
SELECT [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ON 0,
([Date].[Calendar Year].children * [Date].[Month of Year].children) ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
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.
