Hi! I am creating a report that shows a metric value on a monthly basis (i.e Metric Value
), along with:
-
Value in the previous month (i.e.
Metric Value (Prev. 1m)
) -
% change from the previous month (i.e.
Metric Value (% change)
)
To get only data from the last 5 months (including the current month), the following condition was applied:
The results of the report for the condition above:
However, I noticed that the value of Metric Value (Prev. 1m)
for the last entry (i.e. Mar 2023) changes if the condition is changed to last 4 months until today
:
The expectation is that Metric Value (Prev. 1m)
should be 1,281 for Mar 2023. However, the results show 1,258. Why is this the case? Do I need to ensure that complete months are selected in order for Period-over-Period Comparison to work as per expectation?
