Using the order of members existing in a database outline, returns the next member along the same generation or level.
member.NextMember [( layertype ) ]
OR
NextMember ( member [,layertype ] )
member | The starting member from which .NEXTMEMBER counts one member forward. |
layertype |
GENERATION or LEVEL . The default is Generation.
|
If the next member is not found, this function returns an empty member. For example,
using Sample Basic, these would return an empty member: Qtr4.nextmember
and Year.nextmember
.
The following expression:
[Jun].nextmember
returns the member that is one step further than Jun:
[Jul]
The following query
/* For January, PrevMember doesn't exist For December, NextMember doesn't exist */ WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Delta from Previous Month] AS ' [Measures].[Sales] - ([Measures].[Sales],[Year].CurrentMember.PrevMember) ' MEMBER [Measures].[Delta from Next Month] AS ' [Measures].[Sales] - ([Measures].[Sales], [Year].CurrentMember.NextMember) ' SELECT { [Measures].[Sales], [Measures].[Delta from Previous Month], [Measures].[Delta from Next Month] } ON COLUMNS, [Year].Levels(0).Members ON ROWS FROM Sample.Basic WHERE ( [Scenario].[Actual], [Market].[East], [Product].[100] )
returns the grid:
Sales | Delta from Previous Month | Delta from Next Month | |
