Title: Data for 2 different periods next to each other?

I have a profit measure for a dimension, e.g country.

I want the profit for a figure next to the profit for 6 months.

How can I do this in Cognos?

Thanks

Would depend on what you are using for package (relational, dimensional) and the required data container (list, crosstab) Try and give a bit more background for us to work with

Sorry about that.

It's a relational model and I want the data in a list.

Here is a post that covers a similar concept...presenting the same metric from two different time periods.
