- Add another crosstab looking at Revenue per Salesperson, by Product Hierarchy(Product Group) and by Customer(Territory).
Now make sure that all 3 dimensions are on the same (vertical) axis as shown here:
This creates a special situation in relation to the level parameter. You can actually reference the level of each dimension in one sentence.
This example references the totals of the Salespersons:
Salespersons totals: sum(d-1, 0(l(1, 0, 0)), m1)
l(1, 0, 0) means level 1 on the Salesperson dimension and level 0 on Product and Customer Country (level 0 being the “all” level).
So in short – totals for Products and Customer Country but still within each Salesperson.
To reference the Product subtotals the syntax would be:
Product Subtotals = sum(d-1, 0(l(1, 1, 0)),m1)
Totals on the Customer Country level – but within each Salesperson/Product Group.
Named reference in combined heirarchy
In the above example, in case you needed to refer to a specific cell, using the “@” reference method, the syntax should be:
sum(d1, @”[Alvaro Bennett]”;”[T-SHIRTS]”;”[Europe]”, m1)
Note: Even if one of these levels is hidden, e.g., the Product Group level, it should still be included in the named reference syntax.

Hi Lara,
Your syntax, avg(d-1, 0(l(1,0,0)), m3), indicates that you are calculating the average of the current row - i.e. the average of a single cell is identical to the sum of a single cell.
If your average calculation should make sense, it should probably be one of either:

Hi,
Is this possible to do with the average function, rather than the sum?
I tried using the following: avg(d-1, 0(l(1,0,0)), m3)
But it returns the sum rather than the average.
