Query on Correlation Function

Hi All, 

 

I am creating a quick measure of correlation value between X and Y values based on category ID. The values X and Y are set to SUM. 

 

However the correlation value obtained (0.56) is not the same as the value obtained using excel function CORREL (0.8). Any idea what went wrong? 

 

Regards, 

Akbar

Hi there, 

 

It has been created as a quick measure. 

 

I selected quick measure and input the following:

Category = ID (ABC type)

Measure X = X (123 type)

Measure Y = Y (123 type)

 

Regards, 

Akbar
