Formula to calculate as of date

Hi I need to a prompt “As of Date” which should give me the data for the last 12 months till that date… eg. if the as of date entered is 30/06/2011, I need to display data from 30/06/2010 to 30/06/2011 ie. last 12 months data … Also could u pls suggest a formula for this how could i do it … anything would do at universe level or query level … I also need an as of date prompt which will give me the last 12 weeks data just as months

Hi ,
This can be achieved with use of conditional object on universe level,where you can keep the Start Date as fixed.
Cant remember exact formula now. :cry:
