Can somebody help me to understand why this query is not calculating MTD and YTD totals correctly? If I run two separate queries I get count of 2(MTD) and 3(YTD). The query shows the same count for both MTD and YTD.


DEFINE FILE MOVIES
RELYEAR/YY = RELDATE;
END

TABLE FILE MOVIES
SUM
CNT.MOVIECODE AS 'YTD'
WHERE RELYEAR EQ 1989;
SUM
CNT.MOVIECODE AS 'MTD'
WHERE ( RELDATE GE '1989/12/01' ) AND ( RELDATE LE '1989/12/31' );
END

Thank you,

Check out this post. I hope it helps...

BTW: You're running this all for the same timeframe...

I'll post some code after I work on it a bit...

Here's a Freebie:
DEFINE FILE MOVIES
RELYEAR/YY = RELDATE;
RELMONTH/M = RELDATE;
END
TABLE FILE MOVIES
HEADING
"Summary"
"movies released"
"by Year and Month"
SUM CNT.MOVIECODE AS 'YTD'
BY RELYEAR AS 'Year' SUBTOTAL
BY RELMONTH AS 'Month'
WHERE RELDATE IS-FROM '1988/01/01' TO '1991/12/31' ;
ON TABLE SET PAGE OFF
END
Enjoy it... Good night...

Doug,
Thank you for the quick reply.

I wanted to show count for the current month and year NOT the count for each month and subtotal for the year. I just modified the query(below) to show you what I am trying to do. I want the report by current month and year but there are no current data in our sample GGSALES DB so I hardcoded the values assuming current year=1997 and current month = 12.

Result shows counts are the same for YTD and MTD but they are not. Any ideas how to do this?

DEFINE FILE GGSALES
SALEYEAR/YY = DATE;
SALYRMTH/YM = DATE;
END

TABLE FILE GGSALES
SUM
CNT.UNITS AS 'YTD'
BY REGION
BY STCD
WHERE SALEYEAR EQ 1997;
SUM
CNT.UNITS AS 'MTD'
BY REGION
BY STCD
WHERE SALYRMTH EQ 199712;
END

Result should show as below:

Region Store ID YTD MTD
Midwest R1019 180 15


Thanks,

JJ,

I get your desired results this way:

DEFINE FILE GGSALES
SALEYEAR/YY = DATE;
SALYRMTH/YM = DATE;
YTD_UNITS/I11C MISSING ON = IF ( SALEYEAR EQ '1997' ) THEN 1
ELSE MISSING;
MTD_UNITS/I11C MISSING ON = IF ( SALYRMTH EQ '199712' ) THEN 1
ELSE MISSING;
END

TABLE FILE GGSALES
SUM
YTD_UNITS AS 'YTD'
MTD_UNITS AS 'MTD'
BY REGION
BY STCD
END
