Hello, I am facing a challenge with displaying revenue data for bissextile years when using a previous year function. We have a cube by day, and a screen selection on the current fiscal period (March2024-February2025), a dataview that shows the revenue for N and revenue for N-1 values.

The issue regards the N-1 column on the month of February, which displays only the data from 1st to 28, without displaying the 29th day of the previous year of february 2024).

Has anyone been able to find a workaround for this kind of issue?

Best regards,

Anis

    Hi @Tommaso Riva ,

    Thanks for your reply, however I tried setting the offset to -365 and -366, and still did not manage to get the day of February 29th using the previous year function

    Hi @Anis Abed,

    data regarding the additional day of the leap year (2024) has to be added to the previous day to the next non-leap year (2025) to ensure correct results of time function (Offset).

    It can be seen that the result differs between the first column with the application of the previous year function that eliminates the additional day of leap year and the second column where the -365 offset is applied.
