Hi - I want to have Omniscope organize the data by each monday of every week so that all days after the monday are calculated in their corresponding measures. My reports need to be organized in this way for weekly summaries. Any idea how to do this?
Rodaan - Not really sure we understand...best to post some example data?
Make sure that your data includes a Date/Time column/field that is properly data-typed as a Date/Time field. You can then duplicate this column twice and format one new column to show only the week number {w}, and the other only the day of the week {EEEE}, as explained here:
If the duplicate fields are properly typed as Date/Time, they should naturally sort in order, by week with the Monday of each week first (unless your locale setting says Monday is not the first day of the week... it is not considered the first day everywhere).
Is it the case that you are trying to normalise the weekly row sets, so that values for each day after the Monday are displayed as a proportion of the previous Monday value? If so, you will need to use SUBSET functions keyed to the duplicate fields [Week number] and [DayofWeek].
You can also use yet another duplicate of your Date/Time field data-typed as Text/Category to create checkbox filters by week number and day of week.
Duplicating columns/fields and data-typing and display formatting them all differently is good practice in Omniscope.
What I mean is that I if say the data is listed as so: Say date is formatted MM-dd-yyyy
Date Cash 02/03/2013 200 02/06/2013 300 02/01/2013 50 02/07/2013 5
I want the data so show up such that is it aggregated to every Monday which in these past two weeks are 01/28/2013 and 02/04/2013 so in the report it will look like this:
