Guys,
I need some help in calculating the "% Actuals YTD Previous Year". I have the current year values and need just the "% Actuals YTD Previous Year". The way I know how to calculate this is to use an "Offset" in the Fiscal Year varible that is already existing in the "Current Annual Budget". What I did was use an offset of 0FISCYEAR - 1. For example, if my current values is for the year 2015. The column for the offset for the Fiscal Year should give me 2014 values.
In otherwords, let's say I have the following columns available:
Adopted Budget
Current Annual Budget
Actuals YTD
% Actual to Current Budget
Actuals YTD Previous Year
Adopted Budget Previous Year YTD
% Actuals YTD Previous Year
Current Annual Budget Previous Year (0FISCYEAR - 1) ( I used the "Current Annual Budget" column and just restrict the variable with an offset of -1
So, my calculation for the "% Actuals YTD Previous Year" = "Actuals YTD Previous Year" / "Current Annual Budget Previous Year" * 100.
Please correct me if am wrong. Is Offset the best choice for what am trying to achieve or I can use the columns already available to me?
Thanks,
Recca
