Requirement :
Most of the popular reporting tools can handle cumulative sum or running total , but still there have been lot of posts in SCN about whether it is possible to do it in HANA itself. So, just wanted to see , if it can be easily done via Graphical Calculation view and it seems to be working .
Note: This might still be easier to do in Scripted View or Reporting Tool .
In Figure 1, our base data is in Column 1 and 2 and we want to add Colum 3 ( "C UM_SUM" ) to existing data set.
d) Now, I have two aggregation nodes. One with filter SAME_MONTH = "Y' and another with GREATER_EQ_MONTH = 'Y' .

In Figure 1, our base data is in Column 1 and 2 and we want to add Colum 3 ( "C UM_SUM" ) to existing data set.
Figure 1 : Base data and result |
Detail Steps :
Figure 2 shows overall design of the calculation view. It is pretty simple one, isn't it ?
Figure 2 : Graphical Calculation View |
a) I have two projections ( ALL_DATA and ALL_DATA2 ) of the base data ( first two columns in Figure 1 )
b) Created one Calculated Column "DUMMY" on each projection and assigned it a value 1 . You can assign any other constant value .
c) In join node ( JOIN_1 ) ,(inner) joined these two data sets via 'DUMMY" column . After joining output would be like below
If you notice, for every month now I shall have 12 records ( overall 12 X 12 = 144 ) . Where my Month matches with Month1 , that is my actual value for that month . And I need to sum all other values where Month >= Month1 . So, for above example, sum of 10, 20 and 30 would give me cumulative sum for Month 3.
To do this, I defined two calculated attributes , one to check if Month = Month1 and another to check If Month >= Month1 ( refer Figure 4 ) .
Figure 4: Calculated Columns ( Attributes) on Join_1 node |
Figure 5 : Aggregation node ( C UM_SUM ) - |
I took Month and Amount_1 and renamed Amount_1 to C UM_SUM .
Figure 6 : Aggregation_2 |
Took Month and Amount with a Filter SAME_MONTH = 'Y' .
e) Lastly , we need to union these two aggregation nodes. Take Amount from one node and C UM_SUM from another node.
Figure 7 : Union Node |
Result is in Figure 1 itself
Note: Model can be much more complex based on number of characteristics you take, in my case it was only Month .
Equivalent SQL Code would be as simple as below . We can create a Calculation View ( Scripted) or Table Function using this SQL .
a )
select a."Month" ,a."Amount" , ( select sum(b."Amount") from "<SCHEMA>"."RUN_SUM" b where a."Month" >= b."Month" ) as run_sum
from "<SCHEMA>"."RUN_SUM" a
order by a."Month"
Or you can use Window function for better performance
b)
select "Month" , "Amount" , Sum("Amount") over ( order by "Month") from "<SCHEMA>"."RUN_SUM"
order by "Month"
SQL in Section c running against a table with 1.3 billion records and I get the results in 40 micro seconds
c )
SELECT CALMONTH , ORDER_QUAN , SUM (ORDER_QUAN) OVER ( ORDER BY CALMONTH) AS SUM_VAL
FROM
( SELECT CALMONTH , SUM(ORDER_QUAN) AS "ORDER_QUAN" FROM "MY_TABLE"
WHERE CALMONTH BETWEEN '201401' AND '201603'
GROUP BY CALMONTH
)
