Is this possible? I've spent the last 2 days searching and trying different stuff but end up in the same results.
I've tested a couple of approaches but it always filters to the current month instead of using the previous month when I'm putting it in a Matrix table.
Chart:
I have a Matrix Table which have Materials on Rows, Months on Columns and different Measures on Values.
Problematic Measure:
I am trying to get the monthly Est. Ending Inventory which has the formula of
If Current Month:
Stocks on Hand - (Forecast - Sales) + Incoming Shipments
For the Next Months
Previous Months Est Ending Inventory - Forecast + Shipment
Example
If I'm solving for June, I'll have
Est End Invty = June's SOH - (June's Forecast + June's Sales) + June's Incoming Ships
If I'm going to solve for July
June's Est End Invty - July's Forecast + July's incoming Ships
If for Aug
July's Est End Invty - Aug'sForecast + Aug's incoming Ships
and so on.....
What is currently happening is, if I put the measure in the matrix, I'm not getting the previous month's est end inventroy. My current month is showing the correct result but for the next months I cannot make it use the last months value for the solve Est. End Inventory.
Here's my current formula
Est. End Invy =
var adjustedDate = IF(MONTH(TODAY()) > 3, MONTH(TODAY()) -3, MONTH(TODAY()) + 9)
VAR currentMonth =
CALCULATE(
MAX( 0 , [Total Stocks on Hand] - ABS ([Total Sales Outlook] - [Total Sales] ) + [Total Incoming Shipment] ),
FILTER (
ALLEXCEPT(DIM_CALENDAR_SALES, DIM_CALENDAR_SALES[Fiscal Month]),
DIM_CALENDAR_SALES[FSDATE] = MAX(DIM_CALENDAR_SALES[FSDATE])))
VAR next =
MAX( 0, currentMonth - [Total Sales Outlook] + [Total Incoming Shipment] )
VAR nextMonths =
MAX( 0, next - [Total Sales Outlook] + [Total Incoming Shipment] )
VAR result =
IF(MONTH(MAX(DIM_CALENDAR_SALES[FSDATE])) = adjustedDate, currentMonth,
IF(DATEDIFF(MAX(DIM_CALENDAR_SALES[FSDATE]), adjustedDate, MONTH) = 1 , next,
nextMonths))
RETURN
result
