    Kefsid - Omniscope supports Java date arithmetic, so date/time columns can be duplicated and displayed various different ways, like week number (1 to 53...). Omniscope also has a RANK function, which can order date/time fields in a ranking column. Once you have the [Ranked Values] field as an index, SUBSET functions can be used with subset clauses that use calculated integer ranking to isolate the base values, i.e.

    SUBSET_SUM [DATA FIELD], SUBSET ([RANK],[(RANK-0)])

    /

    SUBSET_SUM [DATA FIELD], SUBSET ([RANK],[(RANK-7)])

    Hi, Is there a solution for this type of operations in the forum? i.e. Week on week comparison, Year on year comparisson, etc... Here is an example with a basic week on week comparison. What is the best way to display this? using the tables, or the content + function option?? I would like to replicate exactly what I have attached. Is this possible?

    Thank you,

    JF

    Hi Paola,

    I have checked the other discussion, it describes a front end solution to the problem that I am having. My real problem is to create the Week on week column views for the variables, since I have a full time series in my back end data in one column, I would need to do some sort of front end week grouping followed by a 'pivot or de-pivot' operation in order to achieve what I have provided in the example. I have been reading and it seems that the subset function would be able to solve this, but I am not sure were to look. I have included an updated version of the file with an example of the dataset that I would be using to create the table.

    Thank you,

    JF
