2d12ratio0
Divides the current row by the row that was 12 rows before it.
Requires 2 dimensions (2d)
Divides the current row by the row 12 rows before it. (12ratio)
Resets the row counter when dimension 1 changes. (0)
Results of first 12 rows in the sequence are 0.
Purpose
Use this function to:
Calculate monthly year on year figures
Calculation
When dimension 1 changes from Product1 to Product2, 2d12ratio0 for that row would reset to 0.
When dimension 2 changes from Jan2020 to Jan2021, 2d12ratio0 for the row would be Jan2020/Jan2021
