Does anyone know how to make focus compute a running total?
What I need is a away to determine which of the parts I am
tracking fall in the 'A' class (top 80% of dollar value),
which in the 'B' class (between 80 to 95% of the dollar
value) and in the 'C' class - those parts that together
total only 5% of all the dollar value.
What I have done on lotus is to total the dollar value for
all the parts, compute what 80% and 95% of the total is,
then add parts to each other one after another until the
total equals aprox 80% and then continue to add until the
total equals aprox 95%. The first group of parts would
be A class the second B class and the remainder C class.
I then determine the average accuracy of the forecast for
each group.
Can Focus do this for me? I had some code written by an
IBI instructor, but it doesn't work. I will send it
to whomever is interested.

First create a hold file of PART DOLLARS TOTAL_DOLLARS
Now the report
DEFINE FILE ......
80%TOTAL = .8 * TOTAL_DOLLARS;
RUNNING_TOT = LAST RUNNING_TOT + DOLLARS;
CLASS_A_FLAG/A1= IF RUNNING_TOT LE 80%TOTAL THEN '1' ELSE '0';
create flags for the other classes
END
If you want to sort on a general flag you could create that from the
other flags, but I'm sure you see where this is heading and the only
other trick is the hold file which is do-able.

| 258.2 | did it | WMOIS::B_REINKE | if you are a dreamer, come in.. | Thu Sep 21 1989 16:53 | 59 |
in re -.1 Thankyou that did work. The fex that sorts parts by dollars
and ranks them in abc categories follows if anyone is interested.
The only thing that it does not do is to predetermine the total
value of the parts. That I'm still working on, so at this point the
fex has to be edited each month to enter the new total dollar value.
