Mtd (MDX)
Returns a set of sibling members from the same level as a given member, starting with the first sibling and ending with the given member, as constrained by the Year level in the Time dimension.
Syntax
Mtd( [ Member_Expression ] )
Arguments
- Member_Expression
A valid Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) expression that returns a member.
Remarks
If a member expression is not specified, the default is the current member of the first hierarchy with a level of type Months in the first dimension of type Time in the measure group.
The Mtd function is a shortcut function for the PeriodsToDate function when the Type property of the attribute hierarchy on which a level is based is set to Months. That is, Mtd(Member_Expression) is equivalent to PeriodsToDate(Month_Level_Expression,Member_Expression).
