Analysis :: Where Are Tools To Allow To Connect To Server And Work With Tabular Models

Jun 10, 2015

I see we can install SQL Server 2016 CTP2 and Tabular SSAS.However, where are the tools to allow us to connect to the server and work with the tabular models?Supporting features such as bi directional filtering, etc..The existing SSDT BI tools for 2014 don't contain those additional features (editing relationship filtering direction for example).

Analysis :: Can Applications Connect To SSAS Tabular Mode Cubes Through ODBC Drivers?

Aug 26, 2015

Can applications connect to SSAS Tabular mode cubes through ODBC drivers? I have been asked the question specifically regarding SAS, and I can see (for example) SAS Enterprise Guide has the ability to connect to sources via ODBC, so I now need to find out if there are such things as ODBC divers for SSAS (specifically Tabular).

Analysis :: Server Tabular And Power BI In Azure?

May 12, 2015

getting a complete Microsoft DW/BI (Tabular), Power BI and Office enviroment up running. I am a (Microsoft) DW/BI manager and want to learn about the latest Microsoft DW/BI (SQL Server Tabular) and Power BI (Power Pivot, Power View, ...). To save time & access from anywhere, I thought I could use Windows Azure but quickly got lost in the Azure preview and market place! I even contacted the Windows Azure team and that didn't clarify things.

So, how to get a SQL Server (2014) environment with all DW/BI (SSIS, SSAS, SSRS, Data Mining) technologies together with Power BI and Excel working? If so, how to get started.If this is not possible on Azure and it has to be done on Window, what do I need to install for the Power BI stuff (to work with Tabular)? I already have SQL Server 2014 and Office Pro Plus installed natively on my Windows machine.

Analysis :: How To Filter Tabular Perspectives

Oct 5, 2015

I have been living in the T-SQL world for years, and am working on my first Tabular model.

I have a fact table that I would like to use for many reports. My idea is that I would use Perspectives in the tabular model to pull in the columns that I need for each purpose. In some cases, I also need to filter out some rows. Is there a way to filter perspectives? The only solution I am coming up with is to create views in SQL Server and import the fact table multiple times for each purpose. That doesn't seem very efficient.

Analysis :: Tabular Refreshed Automatically?

Jun 18, 2015

My boss and I attended the SQL conference in Vegas a few years ago. He remembers a session on tabular where the presenter said when the underlying table that tabular is built on changes, it automatically refreshes the tabular db.  Now that we're working on a tabular project I'm looking around for this information and don't find anything like that happens.  From what I can see, the refresh either has to be scheduled from a task, or manually refreshed by right-clicking the db and selecting "process db".  He said the session presenter was a Microsoft Program Manager too.  Is there any truth to what he remembers?

Analysis :: Tabular - DAX - SUMMARIZE And RANKX

Sep 2, 2015

According to the book "Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services - The BISM Tabular Model" (pages 276 and 277) the following DAX query should work. However, I'll get a rank of 1 returned for every product name. My impression is that ALL doesn't block the context transition for product name. Because there is nothing in the errata, I might do something wrong!? The second query is just a workaround giving the correct result.

Analysis :: Tabular Refresh Times Out

Aug 3, 2015

SQL 2014...In SSDT, as I'm developing my tabular model I often add new columns to the underlying table/view that feeds my model.  When I go into Table/Table Properties, select the new column I've added then hit OK it spins and spins then times out.  My model has just over 1 million records.  The only way I can get it to work is to delete the table and then add it in again.

Analysis :: Tabular DAX / Calculate SUM Against Unrelated Table?

Nov 4, 2015

I tried using the page below but wasn't able to quite properly adapt it to my scenario

[URL]

I have two UNRELATED (can't be related for reasons outside the scope of this, other relationships already exist) tables.

Each table does, however, contain a WorkerID:

WorkerTimesheets:

WorkerID, HoursLogged, Date
3,10,2015-05-05
3,6,2015-05-10
4,8,2015-05-01

Then the unrelated table "ConstructionSites"

SiteID, SiteManagerID, SiteOpen,SiteClosed
A5, 3,2015-01-01,BLANK

What I want to do is be able to show a measure that SUMS the number of hours logged by anyone who is a SiteManager from the ConstructionSites table.

I wanted to do a SUMX of WorkerTimesheets against HoursLogged, but FILTER against WorkerTimesheets[WorkerID] = ConstructionSites[SiteManagerID] so only workers who are also SiteManager would be counted.However, I can't seem to get that to resolve it always throws an error along the lines that it can't determine context.

Analysis :: Creating Tabular Model On OLTP

Nov 4, 2015

I have been looking at implementing a tabular model based on an OLTP database that's not dimensional. I know that this is possible but during my proof of concept I have encountered numerous problems ...

The things that I have run into are: After setting up the relationships I have found that measures filter context don't propagate along the relationships as I would expect. if the measure is coming from a target table and not a source then an ALL member is returned ( as in multi dimensional when a dimension isn't related to a measure group). Given the lay out of an OLTP database this will be hard to avoid.

One thing I have done to try an mitigate the above problem is to combine the tables used for measures in a view and using that in the source to connect to the rest of the tables. however due to the tables being of different grains this has then created duplication in some of the keys and measures. so the keys cant be used in relationships and the measures aren't accurate.

Are these things other people have come across? or should I give up the ghost and just recommend using dimensional models for the source? is tabular just geared towards a DW the same as multidimensional?

Analysis :: Deploying Tabular Model Drops Records

Oct 22, 2015

I'm using SQL Server 2012 Bi edition.

I created a model in Visual Studio 2012 and when I process the model, most tables (the ones that should) process 77,546 records and that is reflected in VS.

However, when I deploy the model to the server it is only deploying 76,500 records for those tables.

Where those 1,046 records went to? Is there a setting that limits the records to be deployed? My base tables in the Data Mart have 77,546 records, just as in my Visual Studio model.

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular - Grouping In Excel Grayed Out?

I have a Tabular data model and I'm returning a measure that counts employees (each row is an employee) and then a calculated column in the model that gets SeniorityInMonths.

So if an employee was hired exactly 1 year ago, they would have 12 in this column.

I want to group these into bins, but the Group option is grayed out.

Analysis :: Tabular - Filter / Search For A Specific Measure Value?

May 14, 2015

One of my models has order data, cost per order/invoice ID and then dimensions on Fiscal Year, category, etc...the usual.

A user wanted to search it for an exact order amount.  (They knew for example that one of our accounts was not balancing by single order worth $746.13 and assumed it must be an order that was placed but never marked shipped that slipped through the cracks).

Now, in the model I have "order amount" as a field and then a measure that sums that.

I could expose that "order amount" field as a label and let them filter on it in Excel (and that works).

However, I haven't had any luck filtering on the actual measure "Total Order Amount".  Such as OrderID-> View Filter -> "Total Order Amount" equals 746.13.

I assume this is due to a few things:

Measure calculates at different levels so filtering on a measure is difficult as you would have to place all the "slicers" and set them first before the measure would "exist" at a level where it could be $746.13.  Orders by year would have $746.13 as part of it's year sum, but wouldn't exist as a stand alone line item orders by year 2015 might be 2 million. 

Orders by category might exist at 500,000, 8,000, 15,146.36, etc... but not $746.13.

So I would need OrderID on there as a column so the measure could return at the value of $746.13 for one row for it to match the filter?

Basically:
1. Why it can't really filter on a measure?
2. Is there a better way to accomplish this other than exposing the actual column in the fact table "order amount" as it feels like that could cause all kinds of confusion if other users try to slice/filter on that not realizing exactly what it is meant to be?

I get the following error while processing a SSAS tabular model (2014) on a new server.The SSAS service on this server is running under a login which has access to the SQL server data sources. I tried changing the provider to OLEDB from SQLCLNI11 in the connection string but that doesn't work too.

Analysis :: Processing / Deploying Adventure Works Tabular Cube

Sep 14, 2015

I am trying to create a Adventure Works Tabular cube in my developing machine and im having problems deploying the tabular cube (the DW database was firstly attached without problems)

So I'm having problems processing Adventure Works Tabular Cube, the problems are somewhere between SSAS project configuration and running privileges, i think. I'll describe exactly where i am:

- in SSMS 2012, connections, tables and roles and roles are empty, i only have the full name of the database when I try to process i get an error "the table with id of "product category 92583829......", Name of Product Category refereced by the model Cube, does not exist. An error ocurred when loading the model cube, '?c:program filesmicrosoft
sql serverMSAS11.MSSQLSERVEROLAPDataAdventureWorks Tabular model SQL 2012.0.dbModel.21.cub.xml'. (Microsoft AnalysisServices.)"

- in SQL Server configuration Manager, I have
Sql Server (MSSQLSERVER) running with account NT ServiceMSSQLSERVER
Sql Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) running with account .L.ABCDE , which is my account, i've changed because i've read somewhere that i could have problems with privileges.

(Note: it's strange because SSAS is tabular, i can see a blue rectangle (sort of) in SSMS but in configurator manager seems to be a cube.)

- in SSAS Project i unzip a clean copy of the project and the first error is that BIM file can't be found, it try's to find server TOSHIBA_S50_BTAB, but as i have only tabular SSAS running, i replace for TOSHIBA_S50... And some time ago it worked, now it doesn't even found TOSHIBA_S50_B?!!!!
