Calculated field for year range with SalesDate

Arjun shared this question 8 months ago
Completed

Hi Experts,
I am working on a Yellowfin project and I need to create a calculated field for the year range with the SalesDate field in the Yellowfin 9.7.1 version. I have been searching the documentation and online forums, but I am still not clear on how to do this.
Would you be able to advise me on how to create the following SQL code for the calculated field?
SQL Code:
SELECT CASE
WHEN Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) = 0 THEN
'Year 2022'
WHEN Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) >= 1
AND Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) <= 6
THEN '1-6 years'
WHEN Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) >= 7
AND Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) <= 10
THEN '7-10 years'
WHEN Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) >= 11
AND Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) <= 15
THEN '11-15 years'
WHEN Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) >= 16
AND Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) <= 20
THEN '16-20 years'
WHEN Year(Getdate()) - Year(ITS.SALES_DATE) >= 20 THEN
'>20 years'
WHEN SALES_DATE IS NULL THEN 'Null'
ELSE 'Others'
END AS SalesYear,

FROM SALES

I would really appreciate your help.

Best regards,
Arjun

I have SALES_DATE in Sales table. Created a Sales View. How to create the calculated column in Yellowfin?

I don't think video is required for this.

Hi Team,

I've also read the article you sent me. I understand that this needs to be implemented with data Transformation module. I tried to download the transformation software/plugin, but it's asking for credentials that I don't have.

Would you please provide me with the Yellowfin data Transformation software/plugin so that I can complete this task?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards,

Arjun
