ICalendarDimensionClass.Year

Syntax

Year(Calendar: IDimInstance; El: Integer): Integer;

Parameters

Calendar. Data of the calendar dictionary, by which calculation is executed.

El. Index of the element, relative to which calculation is executed.

Description

The Year method returns index of the element corresponding to the year, which includes the specified element.

Comments

For correct calculation the calendar dictionary must contain the Years level. If the level is missing, the method returns -1.

For example, if the calendar dictionary contains Years, Months, Days levels and the calculation is executed for:

Element of the monthly frequency, the Year method returns the element corresponding to the year, which includes the month.
Element of the daily frequency, the Year method returns the element corresponding to the year, which includes the day.

Example

The example is the function that is used to calculate the relation in a standard cube.

To execute the example, add links to the Cubes and Dimensions system assemblies.

Function Year(T: Variant): Integer;
Var
    Cube: ICubeInstance;
    CubeDest: ICubeInstanceDestination;
    DimInsts: ICubeInstanceDimensions;
    DimInst: IDimInstance;
    i: Integer;
    Result: Integer;
Begin
    // Get the current cube
    Cube := CubeClass.CurrentCube;
    CubeDest := Cube.Destinations.DefaultDestination;
    // Get calendar dimension
    DimInsts := CubeDest.Dimensions;
    For i := 0 To DimInsts.Count - 1 Do
        If (DimInsts.Item(i).Dimension Is ICalendarDimension) Then
            DimInst := DimInsts.Item(i);
        End If;
    End For;
    // Execute calculation
    If CalendarDimension.Level(DimInst, t) = DimCalendarLevel.Quarter Then
        Result := CalendarDimension.Year(DimInst, t);
    Else
        Result := -1;
    End If;
    // Return result
    Return Result;
End Function Year;

The result of using the relation in the formula of the calculated fact: the value for the elements of the quarterly frequency will be taken from the value of the corresponding elements of the annual frequency.
