Hi All,

If someone can please help me with this issue.

Business Case

Month and Year are taken as input from front end as Presentation Variable; PV_M, PV_Y. Once I select Month (March) and Year (2021) it should bring the results from last year March 2020 to March 2021.

The Issue I am facing is to built the filter in report. I have a Dimension of Calendar Date which has attributes(with example): Date (01-03-2021), Month(January, February, March) and Year(2020,2021) etc.

if Someone has developed something similar please help.

    Have you tried using the ADD_MONTHS function?

    ADD_MONTHS( date, n )

    Where n is the number of moths you want to add. In this case, set that to -12 in order to go back 12 months. You can then do a BETWEEN filter of the 2 dates.
