Hi everyone,
Here is my sample file.
This file is used to compare Vendor CHR.FR against Vendor PWC.CR on only their shared Material Numbers, however, everywhere in this file, I had to specifically point out the names of the 2 Vendors which is not very optimal and quite time-consuming if let's say I'd like to compare another pair.
Is there a more flexible way to go about this task without so much as changing the names manually every single time? Like using variable?
Thank you so much!
Solved! Go to Solution.
@trdoan ,
You may try adding measures as follows.
Measure = "CHR.FR"
Measure 2 = VAR v = [Measure] RETURN v
@trdoan is this what you are looking for?

Hi @parry2k , thanks for your reply, however, I noticed I asked the wrong question and the sample data didn't quite replicate my real data. I've changed my question and adjusted the link to a very-similar-to-my-real-data file. Apologise for this inconvenience!
