The following bit of code only recalculates the percentage columns correctly for the first ACROSS value. How do I get it to work for all ACROSS values?

I do not know why it is not working but how about first putting the summed data in a hold file, do the pct calculation in the define and then build the FML report.

I tried a stripped down version and it works. But I am using release 7.6.
I would retry this in a more up-to-date release.

With the CAR file:

-SET &ECHO=ALL

SET NODATA=0
-RUN

DEFINE FILE CAR
RETAIL_SALES/D10 = SALES * RETAIL_COST;
COST/D10         = SALES * DEALER_COST;
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COST                AS 'Cost'
RETAIL_SALES        AS 'Sales'
COMPUTE PROFITPCT/D6.2 = (RETAIL_SALES - COST) / RETAIL_SALES * 100; AS '%'

ACROSS HIGHEST SEATS

'W GERMANY'         LABEL CNE1 OVER

RECAP TOTE    = CNE1 + CNE2 + CNE3; AS 'TOTAL EUROPE' OVER
RECAP TOTE(3) = (TOTE(2) - TOTE(1)) / TOTE(2) * 100; OVER

'JAPAN'             LABEL CNA1 OVER

RECAP TOTA    = CNA1 + CNA2; AS 'TOTAL ASIA' OVER
RECAP TOTA(3) = (TOTA(2) - TOTA(1)) / TOTA(2) * 100; OVER

RECAP TOTT    = TOTE + TOTA; AS 'TOTAL' OVER
RECAP TOTT(3) = (TOTT(2) - TOTT(1)) / TOTT(2) * 100;

Result:



The Total % for Europe Seats 4 is wrong, as is the Report Total % Seats 4.

Francis,

The example using carfile is doing exactly what you're telling it to do. It's a coincidence that the % for seats 2 works - simply by default I guess since there's only one row with data.

However, if you use the following for the carfile example, the %'s for all three will work:

-SET &ECHO=ALL

SET NODATA=0
-RUN

DEFINE FILE CAR
RETAIL_SALES/D10 = SALES * RETAIL_COST;
COST/D10 = SALES * DEALER_COST;
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COST AS 'Cost'
RETAIL_SALES AS 'Sales'
COMPUTE PROFITPCT/D6.2 = (RETAIL_SALES - COST) / RETAIL_SALES * 100; AS '%'

ACROSS HIGHEST SEATS

FOR
COUNTRY
'W GERMANY' LABEL CNE1 OVER
'ITALY' LABEL CNE2 OVER
'ENGLAND' LABEL CNE3 OVER
RECAP TOTE = CNE1 + CNE2 + CNE3; AS 'TOTAL EUROPE' OVER
RECAP TOTE(3) = (TOTE(2) - TOTE(1)) / TOTE(2) * 100; OVER
RECAP TOTE(6) = (TOTE(5) - TOTE(4)) / TOTE(5) * 100; OVER
RECAP TOTE(9) = (TOTE(8) - TOTE(7)) / TOTE(8) * 100; OVER

'JAPAN' LABEL CNA1 OVER
'TAIWAN' LABEL CNA2 OVER
RECAP TOTA = CNA1 + CNA2; AS 'TOTAL ASIA' OVER
RECAP TOTA(3) = (TOTA(2) - TOTA(1)) / TOTA(2) * 100; OVER
RECAP TOTA(6) = (TOTA(5) - TOTA(4)) / TOTA(5) * 100; OVER
RECAP TOTA(9) = (TOTA(8) - TOTA(7)) / TOTA(8) * 100; OVER

RECAP TOTT = TOTE + TOTA; AS 'TOTAL' OVER
RECAP TOTT(3) = (TOTT(2) - TOTT(1)) / TOTT(2) * 100; OVER
RECAP TOTT(6) = (TOTT(5) - TOTT(4)) / TOTT(5) * 100; OVER

That being said, your first posting actually looks pretty good. I see you're using ONT_TOTAL(6) and SEG_TOTAL(6).

Ken, I was waiting for the FRL guru to show up!

In your solution, am I correct in assuming you have to know how many ACROSS values there are and code one line per ACROSS value?

In my first posting, the ONT_TOTAL(6) and SEG_TOTAL(6) were there for the second percentage (column 6 of the set of columns in each ACROSS value.

I've seen code using *, something like ONT_TOTAL(6,3,*) to designate the sixth column in the set of columns for ACROSS value, incrementing every three columns, for all the columns - but I haven't been able to make this work either.

Francis,

Why don't you do this:

-SET &ECHO=ALL

SET NODATA=0
-RUN

DEFINE FILE CAR
RETAIL_SALES/D10 = SALES * RETAIL_COST;
COST/D10 = SALES * DEALER_COST;
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COST AS 'Cost'
RETAIL_SALES AS 'Sales'
COMPUTE PROFITPCT/D6.2 = (RETAIL_SALES - COST) / RETAIL_SALES * 100; AS '%'

ACROSS HIGHEST SEATS

FOR
COUNTRY
'W GERMANY' LABEL CNE1 OVER
'ITALY' LABEL CNE2 OVER
'ENGLAND' LABEL CNE3 OVER
RECAP TOTE = CNE1 + CNE2 + CNE3; AS 'TOTAL EUROPE' OVER
RECAP TOTE(3,*,3) = (TOTE(*-1) - TOTE(*-2)) / TOTE(*-1) * 100; OVER

'JAPAN' LABEL CNA1 OVER
'TAIWAN' LABEL CNA2 OVER
RECAP TOTA = CNA1 + CNA2; AS 'TOTAL ASIA' OVER
RECAP TOTA(3,*,3) = (TOTA(*-1) - TOTA(*-2)) / TOTA(*-1) * 100; OVER

RECAP TOTT = TOTE + TOTA; AS 'TOTAL' OVER
RECAP TOTT(3,*,3) = (TOTT(*-1) - TOTT(*-2)) / TOTT(*-1) * 100;

ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, FONT='Arial', SIZE=8, $
TYPE=REPORT, LABEL=TOTA, STYLE=BOLD, COLOR=RED, $
TYPE=REPORT, LABEL=TOTE, STYLE=BOLD, COLOR=BLUE, $
TYPE=REPORT, LABEL=TOTT, STYLE=BOLD, COLOR=GREEN, $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

When using RECAP TOTE(3,*,3) = (TOTE(*-1) - TOTE(*-2)) / TOTE(*-1) * 100; OVER, remember that:

TOTE(3,*,3) means to start at column 3 and go for all columns in increments of 3. The *-1 means to use the column value to the immediate left. *-2 would then mean to use the value two columns to the left. The above should now make it dynamic for you.

Speaking of dynamic, I was playing around some time ago and created an FML report that is totally dynamic in working from a hierarchy. Very little logic and save TONS of coding.

I hope this helps.

It's been a while since I posted. I've been doing mainly ETL's for the past year (and silently going insane might I add). I just happened to look in here today for a problem one of the guys was having.

Ken, thank you! That works. I just couldn't get the dynamic notation to work.

I guess I was really lucky today that you stopped by.

Thanks again and good luck with all that ETL.

Francis.
