如何使用DAX函数ParallelPeriod

ParaellePeriod功能允许比较各时间点之间的值(销售额与一年前的比较)。我在使用它时做错了什么,但不知道 thing 可能是什么。

我创建了一个简单的PowerPivot SQL Server 2008+源代码查询,并将其命名为Source。该查询生成168行:6个ID(100-600)和28个日期(2010年1月至2012年4月的第一个月)全部交叉应用。

; WITH SRC (groupKey, eventDate, value) AS
(
    SELECT G.groupKey, D.eventDate, CAST(rand(G.groupKey * year(D.eventDate) * month(D.eventDate)) * 100 AS int)
    FROM
    (
        SELECT 100
        UNION ALL SELECT 200
        UNION ALL SELECT 300
        UNION ALL SELECT 400
        UNION ALL SELECT 500
        UNION ALL SELECT 600
    ) G (groupKey)
    CROSS APPLY
    (
                  SELECT CAST('2010-01-01' AS date)
        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2010-02-01' AS date)
        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2010-03-01' AS date)
        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2010-04-01' AS date)
        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2010-05-01' AS date)

        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2011-02-01' AS date)

        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2011-10-01' AS date)
        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2011-11-01' AS date)

        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2012-01-01' AS date)

        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2012-03-01' AS date)
        UNION ALL SELECT CAST('2012-04-01' AS date)
    ) D (eventDate)
)
SELECT
    *
FROM
    SRC;

我使用从MSDN中提取的公式

在PowerPivot中添加了派生列
=CALCULATE(SUM(Source[value]), PARALLELPERIOD(Source[eventDate], -1, year))

没有显示错误,但从未有任何计算数据。我尝试了不同的时间间隔(-1,+ 1)和时期(年,月)但无济于事。

我唯一可以观察到的是我的演示和MSDN之间的不同之处是他们有一个为日期定义的单独维度。很容易纠正,所以我用以下内容创建了一个日期查询。此查询为2010-01-01和2012-06-01(1096行)

之间的所有日期生成一行

在生成数据的情况下,我在源和日期之间建立了关系并尝试了这个公式,但没有运气

=CALCULATE(SUM(Source[value]), PARALLELPERIOD(Dates[FullDateAlternateKey], -1, year))

PowerPivot设计师看起来像

对我做错了什么的想法?

您在派生列中使用的DAX表达式应该是度量并在计算区域中定义...

MeasurePriorPeriodValue := CALCULATE(SUM(Source[value]), PARALLELPERIOD(Source[eventDate], -1, year))

...只要您在parallelperiod函数中使用的列配置为日期数据类型,它仍然可以工作。将日期表与其余表分开是最佳实践&#34;但不是必需的...因为它可以确保没有间隙(这可能会导致一些DAX Time-Intelligence功能出现问题)等等。
