Hello all.

 

I'm trying to show the change in price month over month. For example, I'm trying to show that the OpProgramPrice has changed $0.01 from AccountingMonth 19-01 to 19-06. Any ideas on how to do this? See the table below.

 

I've already tried this case statement to have it focus on 19-06 and minus 19-01 but it isn't doing the trick. 

 

Any ideas?

 

(case when `AccountingMonth`= '19-06' then `OpProgramPrice` else 0 end) - (case when `AccountingMonth`= '19-01' then `OpProgramPrice` else 0 end)

    Not sure it will work for future peroids but I think your beastmode would work like this

     

    AVERAGE(   (case when `AccountingMonth`= '19-06' then `OpProgramPrice` else 0 end)   )

    -

    AVERAGE(   (case when `AccountingMonth`= '19-01' then `OpProgramPrice` else 0 end)   )

     

     

    In order to calculate things accross rows you need an aggragating function in there
