Hi @armandnaude,

To get say revenue for a company use the following parameters with RData class of DEX2 library:

FieldList = "TR.Revenue.Date;TR.Revenue.Value"

RequestParam = "Period=FY-10"

The latter denotes that you're requesting revenue from fiscal year 10 years ago.

Does this answer your question?

If I can make a suggestion, I would strongly recommend to model your data retrieval using Eikon Excel, where you have wizards to figure out what parameters you need to use in =TR worksheet function. Once you figured out those parameters and once you're happy with the data =TR function returns, you can use the same parameters in RData class of DEX2 library.

Thank you kindly for taking the time, and for the suggestion on working with TR Excel, to help me figure things out!
