I have a PostGreSql table with following fields and connected to my Google Data Studio report.



Date (YYYYMMDD) | Field1 | Field2 


Fields 1 and 2 are numeric.



I have created a calculated field of Turnover as Sum(Field1)-Sum(Field2).



Now am trying to add an indicator to show the Projected 2018 turnover. It should be calculated as



Monthly average of Turnover for current year (Values available till date) × 12



I tried creating another field ProjectedTurnover with formula Avg(Turnover)*12 with date range as YYYYMM format.



While writting the formula it gives me "re-aggregating metric" error.



I searched various forums to get answer to this and still not able to figure out how should I get my Projected Turnover.



Can anyone please help.

          The re-aggregating error is usually because you've used sum() in the turnover field.



          Try changing that to




          Field1 - Field2




          You can then use




          Avg(Turnover)*365

          • Just to be clear, you can't do it by making a monthly aggregated figure and then averaging that. You'd have to do that in your dataset pre-loading to Data Studio
