Creates and distinguishes lists that are processed by functions that require list arguments. @LIST can be used to create expLists, member lists, or rangeLists. @LIST treats a collection of parameters as one entity.
Syntax
@LIST (argument1, argument2, ..., argumentN)
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
argument1, argument2, ..., argumentN | The list of arguments that are collected and treated as one argument so they can be processed by the parent function. Arguments can be member names, member combinations, member set functions, range functions, and numeric expressions. |
Notes
@LIST does not check for or eliminate duplicates.
Example
The following example is based on the Sample Basic database. Assume that the Year dimension contains an additional member, Sales Correl. @LIST is used with the @CORRELATION function to determine the sales relationship between a product's two peak periods (Jan through Mar and Apr through May):
FIX(Sales) "Sales Correl" = @CORRELATION(SKIPNONE, @LIST(Jan,Feb,Mar),@LIST(Apr,May,Jun)); ENDFIX
This example produces the following report:
Colas Actual New York Sales ===== Jan 678 Feb 645 Mar 675 Apr 712 May 756 Jun 890 Sales Correl 0.200368468
