You can first store unique category values (workitem/workItem/category/name) in an array. Then iterate over each array element (using an Iteration element in RPE template). Within Iteration element, use a filter to get workitems filtered by category/name, get the indidual age using following Script Expression:

var today = new Date();
var createdYear = creationDate.toString().substr(0,4);
var createdMonth = creationDate.toString().substr(5,2)-1;
var createdDate = creationDate.toString().substr(8,2);
var created = new Date(createdYear, createdMonth, createdDate);
var created = new Date(creationDate.toString());
_age = age1 + Math.round((today - created)/(1000606024));
_count = _count*1 + 1;

_age/_count will give the average age.

 Hi Fariz,


Thank you for the reply, I checked the possibilities through JRS. It is not possible so I am checking the way to do in rpe, whether it is possible to calculate average age of work item with respect to an attribute value in Rpe?

Publishing (formerly RPE) is used mainly for documentation purpose and it depends on application data. If application does not provide such value, there are some techniques that you might want to try:


1) Java scripting
2) Create hybrid document using JRS data within PUB. If you can create JRS report with calculation you are looking  for, you can use JRS export to PUB option to get necessary PUB template details.

Hope this helps.
