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

in Charting

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:
