I have an ask to build a report where I need to correlate recent activity with past activity based on customer.
Example: Customer bought a new item in 2020 who also had purchased an item in 2017, 18 or 19. I have other variables too but if I can solve this basic one, I can figure out the rest.
Sounds like a pivot table almost but with all the variables, it's not. Besides, I'm creating in BI to be refreshable.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
I appreciate you looking into this. I don't want to waste any more of your time.
I did a simple solve with Excel.
Thanks!
Hello @Anonymous
Could you send us a sample of the output table you are looking for?
Thanks for the quick reply. The matrix table that I'm using has all proprietary information unfortunately.
Here's some more details.
I have data from 2017 - 2020. I need to show someone who bought an item in 2020 that bought in previous years. So, I was assuming I can build an output table that finds the same customer in all years meeting the qualifications of spending more than $1,000 per item, per year.
Hope you can help
