Revenue Projections - View?

  • I'm going to cross post this to the SSRS area as well as I'm not sure where it best fits.

    Imagine having the following columns:

    Begin of Sales Date

    Ramp Up Months

    Annual Sales Projection

    Annual Percentage Increase

    Revenue Duration

    Ramp Down Months

    So basically an item can have a begin of sales date of 1/1/2016, with a 4 month ramp up. After that we hot the Annual sales projection which increases annually by the Annual Percent Increase percentage until we hit the Revenue duration at which point it will ramp down for the number of Ramp Down Months. The good thing is that the ramp up and down are evenly spread, ditto for the Annual % Increase. So if I have a $100,000 Annual Sales with a 10 month ramp up, I'd have $10k, $20k, $30k, etc. until I reach the $100k.

    The challenge is that I need to build an SSRS report containing a matrix to show the projected revenue per month, in a matrix of course, based on a given start and end date. I'm having a challenge making it work in SSRS and am wondering if it would be easier to build a view and populate it with the sales amount by month and year, placing all the math in the view and making the report a piece of cake. I've made the matrix work and can place the (fixed) annual revenue in the cells from the begin of sales date through the end, I'm just stuck making the values increase per month / cell.

    Any input is greatly appreciated!

  • This fits best in SSRS since you say it's an SSRS post.
