How can I display amounts for different months in a table in Domo?

BryantCafferty

I want each row to contain the amount for the previous month as well as the amount for each of the 5 months prior to that. What is the best way to do this in Domo with a Table chart type?

Not quite sure what your data looks like, but

You can use this to get the prior month

CASE WHEN LAST_DAY(datefield) = LAST_DAY(DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(), INTERVAL 1 month)) THEN totalamount

ELSE 0 END

And this to get the 5 months prior

CASE WHEN LAST_DAY(datefield) <= LAST_DAY(DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(), INTERVAL 2 month))

AND LAST_DAY(datefield) >= LAST_DAY(DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(), INTERVAL 6 month))

THEN totalamount

ELSE 0 END

You can drag both of these into your table card and set the aggregation to Sum

You can use the LAG function to calculate prior row values. Here's a previous post I did talking about LAG and doing a rolling average:

@GrantSmith for the win on speed of reply - awesome! Thanks for jumping on this (my first post to the community forum!).
Also incredibly fast was @MarkSnodgrass who delivered what I was looking for. Hooray!
Thanks to you both for helping me out with this one. I'm super impressed with the speed and precision of your replies! 👏
