Selecting Period-to-Date Members

If the administrator set up Dynamic Time Series members for the Period dimension, you can select members that show period-to-date data. For example, to show data for year-to-date expenses, you could select a Dynamic Time Series member that includes data for January through August.

To select a Dynamic Time Series member:

  1. Right-click the Period dimension on the ad hoc grid, and select Member Selector.
  2. Click Function Selector icon next to a member to display available time series members; for example, Q-T-D.

  3. Select a time series member from the list. In this example, with March selected, if you select Yr to Date, then Yr to Date("Mar") is added to the Selections pane.
