      2dseq

      Returns an increment of the number of rows since dimension 1 changed

      Requires 2 dimensions (2d) (Otherwise will always return 1.00)

      Increments each row (seq)

      Purpose

      Use this function to: 

      • Index items within subgroups

      Sample Result

      Parameters

      ParameterDescription
      DimensionsDiscrete field(s).    All fields must come from the same table.
      NameName to be displayed as Column Header in result grid
      Measure

      The field to be used in the post-function calculation.

      • Must be numeric if Function is anything other than COUNT.
      • Must come from same table as DIMENSIONS.
      • Supports Discrete or Continuous DataTypes.
      FunctionCOUNT / SUM / AVG / MIN / MAX / STDEV
      Post2dseq
      Value

      Optional.   Filter to apply when evaluating FUNCTION.   Only records in the Filter Recordset will be included in the Function and Post-Function calculations.

      Must come from same table as DIMENSION/MEASURE or be linked to the Dimension table.

      Axis0 / 1.    Y-Axis to use when plotting graph.     Default = 0
      PlotY / N.   Specifies whether measure’s output column should be plotted on graph.  Default = Y
      ResolveOptional.   Resolve level for the measure.   If blank, Resolve = Dimension Table
      Series Type

      Default / Bar / Stacked Bar / Line / Spline / RangeLow / RangeHigh / CSLow / CSHigh / CSOpen / CSClose

      Determines the graph style for the measure.

      PopupDefault / None / Extended
      Prefix$ / £ / E / %

      Usage Notes

      Returns a decimal.

       

      Example

      NOTE: Measure 1 is included purely for illustration. It is not necessary to include this measure for the calculation to work.


      Example use: Give each product within a product group an index

      Dimension:[transactions].[product_group], [transactions].[product_ID]

      Measure 1

      • Name: = Occupations
      • Measure:  = transactions.cid
      • Function: = count
      • Post: =
      • Value: =
      • Axis: =0
      • Plot:=Y
      • Resolve:=
      • Series Type:=Default
      • Popup:=Default
      • Prefix:=

      Measure 2

      • Name: =Index
      • Measure:  = transactions.cid
      • Function: = count
      • Post: = 2dseq
      • Value: =
      • Axis: =0
      • Plot:=Y
      • Resolve:=
      • Series Type:=Default
      • Popup:=Default
      • Prefix:=
