@MINRANGE

The @MINRANGE calculation function for Essbase returns the minimum value of a member across a range of members.

This function returns the minimum value of mbrName across XrangeList.

Syntax

@MINRANGE (mbrName [ ,XrangeList])

Parameters

mbrName: Any valid single member name, or a function that returns a single member.
XrangeList: Optional. A valid member name, a comma-delimited list of member names, cross dimension members, or a member set function or range function (including @XRANGE) that returns a list of members from the same dimension. If XrangeList is not specified, Essbase uses the level 0 members from the dimension tagged as Time.

Notes

Depending on the values in the list, this function may return a zero(0) or #MISSING value. For full control over skipping or inclusion of empty values, use @MINSRANGE.

Qtr1 = @MINRANGE(Sales,Jan:Mar);
