    I have the following MDX calculation in my SSAS cube that returns Prior YTD Sales based on the current date.

    Sum(YTD(ParallelPeriod([Calendar].[Year-Quarter-Month-Week-Day].[Year],1,[Calendar].[Year-Quarter-Month-Week-Day].CurrentMember)),[Measures].[Net Sales])

    This will return the YTD sales for prior year, however I need a calculation to return the total sales for the entire prior year.

    (based on today's date)

    Example: Current YTD sales : $5,000,000

    Prior YTD sales : $5,100,000

    Prior Year Sales: $8,000,000 (this is the calc I can't figure out)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated...

    any specific reason for not implementing...

    SELECT [MEASURES].[SALES] ON 0

    WHERE [DATE DIMENSION SLICE]=YEAR
