Year Over Year Comparison Calc for Custom Subject Areas

Quinn Thacker

Trying to take revenue amounts and create a calculation and dynamic filter that allows you to take a filter selected period and compare it to a trailing period either MoM or YoY.

The native functions like AGO do not work with the custom subject areas we have developed.

Hi @Quinn Thacker

If you have an proper time dimension , AGO Function should work.

I am not sure below is work for you but for your reference we have one MOS doc related to time series .

FDIP: Inconsistent Values Returned When Using YTD And AGO Across Reports (Doc ID 3011686.1)

Hi Quinn,

Under some circumstances, there are alternatives to using the AGO function or Time Series Functions. Filter functions have some advantages including performance as described here: https://blogs.oracle.com/analytics/post/oracle-analytics-performance-tuning-times-series
