YTD graphs

I understand Date column is mandatory to create a YOY card. But the report coming in from quickbooks does not have a Date column in it. How can i solve this issue?

    How do you know which row pertains to a particular date? It's possible you could write a BeastMode that executes CASE statements against another field to generate a date value.

  • How often are you are you pulling the Quickbooks data? You could use the _Batch_Last_Run_ column or Create a DataFlow and add a Constant Date Column for whenever it runs giving you an `As of Date` or `Run date`.

     

    I am assuming that you are pulling data Daily, but you could also apply this to weekly numbers or Monthly numbers.
