Vivek,
Thanks for your response. I understand how to get to a max date in a select statement from a table. I will try to clarify.
I have a calculated view that has two tables one for netsales that is load monthly and one that has a yearly tally for overall volumes of product sold. I need to have a aggregation of the netsales based on the last month loaded and the previous twelve months. I tried to use the now function to figure out what my date is and work backwards from there but since the business might not have December numbers loaded then I need to see that November 2014 was the last month loaded. I realize that HANA studio might not be were I want to do this and I can do this in the reporting tool but I run into performance issue in the reporting tool so I thought I would start in Studio first.
Thanks
Jeff
