Custom Aggregations (Measuring Headcount Attrition).

Hello,I've got a measure, headcount attrition, that I'm not sure how to aggregate in a cube. Here's some example data, assume the time for all these is January 2015.[u]Name|Department|MoveTo[/u]Jim|Sales|ExternalDiane|Sales|FinanceMark|Finance|ExternalSarah|IT|SalesAssume an organizational hierarchy that has departments: Sales, Finance, & IT rolling up to "MyCompany".Now, my issue is to accurately measure attrition. Given the above data, when looking at the top of the house --"MyCompany" the attrition should be 2. Only 2 people have left the company, the rest are internal transfers. If I drill down to the departments I should have Sales with 2, Finance with 1 and IT with 1.I'm stuck on how to implement this. Any ideas? It's like I want to aggregate on the organization hierarchy in reverse, from top to bottom instead of aggregating up, but I just can't see how to do this.
