Hi,

Noticed something odd today about the Measures - Prior vs. Current report. The numbers are good, it shows the proper time periods and measure values (IE. 2009 Q2 vs 2008 Q2). However, if I drill-down on a Prior value, I get the date parameters that would be generated by the Previous vs. Current report (IE. 2009 Q2 vs 2009 Q1).

I right-clicked and did a "copy shortcut" and this is what I see for each time level:
**YEARLY**
CURRENT:
javascript:MDitemClick(13,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009','',14,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009','');
PRIOR:
javascript:MDitemClick(19,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2008','',20,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2008','');

**QUARTERLY**
CURRENT:
javascript:MDitemClick(15,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E01','',16,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E01','');
PRIOR:
javascript:MDitemClick(19,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2008%7E04','',20,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2008%7E04','');

**MONTHLY**
CURRENT:
javascript:MDitemClick(13,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E01%7E02','',14,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E01%7E02','');
PRIOR:
javascript:MDitemClick(19,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E01%7E01','',20,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E01%7E01','');

**WEEKLY**
CURRENT:
javascript:MDitemClick(13,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E02%7E06%7E23','',14,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E02%7E06%7E23','');
PRIOR:
javascript:MDitemClick(21,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E02%7E05%7E22','',22,'MEASURE_SERIES=8&TIME=2009%7E02%7E05%7E22','');



This report has not been customized, but we have done very minor customizing to a_get_drill_down.fex.

I'm hoping someone can test and see if this is a product issue or something at my site.

Please let me know,

Joey

Hi Joey,

You have a good eye! This issue will be corrected in the next major PMF release. You can correct this yourself easily enough by making the following change to primeas1.fex in the mainstreet app folder.

Simply replace the following line of code:
-SET &TIME = &TIME_PARM_PREV ;
with
-SET &TIME = &TIME_PARM_PRI ;

Best Regards,
Mike
