Challenge #17: Month-over-Month Retention Rate

KOBoyle
11 - Bolide

Solution attached. In the macro I used a slight variation from what others have shown in that I passed the control parameter directly into the Formula tool rather than passing it to a Text Input and then using the Append Tool.

The most difficult part for me was figuring out the correct condition for defining the Open column for each year! Nice compact solution once I got that bit right!!!

 

I still think that it's really cool that you can update just about anything you want in pretty much any tool with the Action Tool!!!

still have trouble using Batch Macro. Had the same problem as Challenge #11. 

 

Solved this without a macro but will try to figure out how Batch macro works later.
