My client loves the Current vs Previous report, but they would like it to be Current vs Prior (prior period a year ago). How difficult would it be to clone this report and make the requested change? Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks WF 8.09 | ||

Prior field indicators are built into PMF's field taxonomy. We just have not already built a parallel "prior v. current" report that displays them yet. So you can do this in just a few minutes of work. Clone and rename the following files. copy todmeas1.fex - name it primeas1.fex copy todmeas.fex - name it primeas.htm copy todmeas.htm - call it primeas.htm copy todmeas_navbar.htm - call it primeas_navbar.htm Changes: In primeas_navbar.htm, change the references on line 37 to call primeas1.fex, not todmeas1.fex. In primeas1.fex 1. Change all field references to PREV_ to PRI_; you should do a line by line replace to be careful. 2. Change internal references to todmeas1.fex in that file to primeas1.fex. 3. Change the &TIME_RANGE to PRI_CUR In primeas.fex, change the HTMLFORM line to point to primeas.htm In primeas.htm, change the reference on line 57 to call primeas1, not todmeas1. Set up a new launch page called Measures - Prior to Current, pointing to your new primeas. That's it!

Wow, that was quick! It is working perfectly. Continuing with best practices, I was able to keep the primeas1.fex changes in my client PMF directory. The htm files needed to go in Mainstreet. Thanks for your help. WF 8.09 | |||

Glad it did the trick. O yea... one more thing... don't forget to change the column titles so they show "prior" not "previous" as the source for the trend.
