Hi,

I am trying to produce a report that does the following (simplified example for illustrative purposes):

1. Take a data file containing historic energy consumption organised into 3 columns:

    Energy Meter Name (100 Meters)
    Month (13 months)
    Consumption


The data is arranged with multiple rows of data for each Meter - i.e. 13 rows of consumption data for each of the 100 Meters (so a total of 1300 rows of data).

2. Producing an output report that shows the following

    Column 1: Energy Meter Name
    Column 2: Consumption from most recent month (Month x)
    Column 3: Consumption from previous month (Month x -1)
    Column 4: Consumption from corresponding month from previous year (Month - 12)
    Column 5: Monthly variance (Column 2 - Column 3)
    Column 6: Annual variance (Column 2 - Column 4)


This would therefore equate to 100 lines of data. I am OK with Columns 5 and 6... but I am struggling to transpose the data to get Columns 2, 3 and 4. Any advice / ideas would be most welcome!!

Many thanks.

You might take a look at these devShare posts from BIRT Exchange:

BIRT Exchange DevShare - Transposed Data Sets

AND

BIRT Exchange DevShare - Transposing Data

Hope these help. Let me know if they don't, I'll take a closer look at helping you transform your data.

Hi,

In the example submitted by mblock, I cannot see the script for the scripted data source. I am using eclipse BIRT designer to open it. Can you please help me
