Analysis :: SSAS Tabular Stand Alone Table In Excel

Jul 16, 2015

I am working with SSAS Tabular. I have a stand alone table with 60 columns and contains 120K records. Table size is 250MB. And trying to build a tabular report out of it and it is taking longer and throwing exception, screenshot attached.

It might be cross-join issues, as workaround created a dummy measure and using in report. But it working for 10-20 k records and beyond throwing same exception. I have 8 GB RAM and 100 GB free disk space.

Customer wanted it in SSAS Tabular...

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular Small Database Fails In Excel Pivot Table Because Of Memory Shortage?

May 7, 2015

I have a very small SSAS database with around 35 Mb. I opened it on Excel 32 bits and started dragging fields to a pivot table and it started failing with memory errors. The behavior on the SSAS server was that memory started growing very fast until 8 GB (vm memory total) and then the error is reported in excel.

What might be the issue in such a small database? I would understand in a big database, but not on this one.

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

Nov 10, 2015

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 :: Adding KPI To SSAS Tabular Perspective

Aug 1, 2012

SQL Server Data Tools within VS 2010 Shell.2012 SASS in Tabular Mode.I've created a Measure and KPI in my fact table.  I've created a perspective named "Summary"  When selecting the fields and measures for display in the perspective, the measure is available, but not the KPI (target, status, etc.). When Analyzing in Excel with the Summary perspective, the KPI is not available in the field list. When analyzing in Excel with the (default) perspective, the KPI is available.As far as I can tell, there is no way to select a KPI within the perspective window.

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular Model Processing Error

Nov 4, 2015

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. The error message isn't useful to debug further.

The cube processing succeeds on a different server. I scripted out the cube DB and ran it on the new server and am trying to process full but it fails with the following error.

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular Missing Data Column Doesn't Deploy

Aug 2, 2015

I have created a tabular model with VS 2013 Ultimate. I deployed the model several times and everything works great with Power Pivot.

One of the dimension tables, "Age", has an integer field that is null. I updated that column in SSMS to have values, processed the table in VS and the "Age" column now has integer values.

I deployed the model again, connected with Power Pivot, and the "Age" column still has not data. I refreshed the Excel spreadsheet several times, started a new one, deployed several times and there is still not data in the "Age" column even though it clearly exists in VS.

I opened SSMS on the Analysis Service and queried the table in question and it also shows no data in the Age column even though it is in the data table and the VS model.

I can't find anything different about this column than others that contain data. How can this be happening?

Analysis :: SSAS Tabular - Dynamic Security Roles - Mixing Together DAX Filters

Oct 10, 2015

I have two different roles, each one with a dax filter. One is for filtering users that access by Excel, and other for filtering users that access by Reporting Services, respectively:

=CONTAINS(FILTER(V_FILTRO_C;V_FILTRO_C[IDPerfilGrupo]<>7);V_FILTRO_C[iCursoCod];[SK_CURSO];V_D05_DIM_UTIL[DSC_LOGIN_USER];RIGHT(USERNAME();LEN(USERNAME())-SEARCH("";USERNAME())))
=CONTAINS(FILTER(V_FILTRO_C;V_FILTRO_C[IDPerfilGrupo]<>7);V_FILTRO_C[iCursoCod];[SK_CURSO];V_FILTRO_C[IDUtilizador];VALUE(CUSTOMDATA()))

To create only one role that serves Excel and Reporting Services users, is it viable to use only the || (OR) operator?, is there any other regard i should take?

Analysis :: Show Grand Total When Using SSAS Tabular Role Security Permission

Oct 30, 2015

If user want to see the grand total for a measure with include all members, even though the user has limited access for that member, so how we can do using DAX?For example, let’s say the total revenue for all the divisions in a cube is $15,000. You create a role called “Division A”, and set it up so members of that role can only see the revenue for Division A, which totals $3,000. If you use a front-end tool like Excel to access the cube and use the division hierarchy to see the total revenue, you will see the revenue of $3000 for Division A, but also want to see the Grand Total for the revenue as $15,000How we can achieve above scenerio in tabular model (DAX).

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.

select [Measures].[Sales Amount] on columns,
       Non Empty [Date].[Calendar].members on rows

Analysis :: SSAS Multidimensional Cube On A Single Table

May 7, 2015

I have only 1 denormalized table that is being used in a SSAS Tabular model(which is about 3GB). I am doing a POC to convert it into a SSAS Multidimensional and explore it.

Table1
-----------------------
StoreName
StoreDesc
ItemName
ItemDesc
Qty1
Cost1
Price1
Amount1

1st Question) I am seeing that there is no Primary Key(unique key) in the current denormalized table. (Tabular Model didnt require any primary key). But i think for Multidimensional the key is mandatory? Should i generate a composite key myself in a Named Query based on this table(in the DSV)?

2nd Question) What is the best way to design my Multidimensional Cube/Dimensions based on this single table?

Say if i comeup with a Composite Primary Key called (PK_ID) . Should i be splitting up my facts / dimensions in my DSV using Named Queries similar to below(Using the same PK for my dimension tables also?)

a) FactTable = Select PK_ID, Qty1,Cost1,Price1,Amount1 from Table1
b) StoreDim =  Select PK_ID, StoreName,StoreDese from Table1
c) ItemDim  =  Select PK_ID, ItemName,ItemDesc from Table1

Would this work?

Analysis :: Excel 2013 Pivot-table / Grouping On Date That Comes From Analysis Service 2008?

Nov 24, 2015

I am using

SSAS: version 2008
Excel: version 2013

I am connecting to SSAS cube from Excel and I have date dimension with 4 fields (I have others but I don't use it for this case). I created 4 fields in order to test all possible scenarios that I could think of:

DateKey:
    - Type: System.Integer
    - Value: yyyyMMdd
Date:
    - Type: System.DateTime
DateStr0:
    - Type: System.String
    - Value: dd/MM/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture)
    - Example: 01/11/2015  
DateStr1:
    - Type: System.String
    - Value: %d/%M/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture) 
    - Example: 1/11/2015  

Filtering on date is working fine:

Initially, in excel, filtering on date was not working. But after changing dimensional type to time, and setting  DataType to Date, as mentioned in [URL] filter is working fine as you can see in the picture.Grouping on date is not working:

I have hierarchy in my Date dimension and I can group based on hierarchy, no problem. But user is used to pre-build grouping function of excel, and he wants to use that. Pre-build functions of Excel, Group and ungroup seems to be available as you can see in following picture:

But when user clicks 'Group', excel groups it as if it is a string, and that is the problem. User wants to group using pre-build grouping function available in Pivot table. I also find out that Power Pivot Table does not support this excel grouping functionality. And if I understood well, this pre-build grouping functionality of excel, needs to do calculation at run time, and that is not viable solution if you have millions of rows. So Power pivot table does not support pre-build grouping functionality of excel and hence we need to use dimension hierarchy to do the grouping. But I am not using Power Pivot table, I am using simple Pivot Table. So I expect grouping functionality to be working fine. Then I tried to do simple test. I created a simple data source in excel itself. And use it as source of my Pivot table. Then grouping is working fine. The only difference that I can see is (When double click the Measure value in Excel),For date values of my simple test, excel consider them as 'Date'.

For date values of my data coming from cube, excel consider them as 'General'

    2.1. But value here is same as it was in simple test.

    2.2. 'Date Filter' works just fine.

    2.3. If I just select this cell and unselect it, then excel change type to 'Date' though for that cell. 

    2.4. I have created 4 different types of fields in my date dimension thinking that values of attribute of my dimension might be the problem, but excel consider 'General' for all of them.

    2.5 This value (that can be seen when double clicking on measure) comes from 'Name Column' of the attribute. And the DataType defined is WChar. And I thought that might be the reason of issue. And I changed it to 'Date'. But SSAS does not allow it to change to 'Date' giving error : The 'Date' data type is not allowed for the 'NameColumn' property; 'WChar' should be used.

So, I don't know, what is the puzzle piece that I am missing.

1. Date filter works, group does not work

2. Excel consider it as 'General' string.

3. SSAS does not allow to change 'NameColumn' to Date.

Analysis :: SSAS Design - Multiple Keys Of Same Dimension In Fact Table

Mar 19, 2012

I am developing a BI solution on SQL Server 2008 R2 and how to handle multiple referances to the same dimension from a fact table!

Here is the scenario;

Fact_Contracts (# M)
ServiceProvider_CompanyID, Client_CompanyID, Amount_USD 
Dim_Company( hundreds)
ID,  CityID, ProfessionID, CompanyName
Dim_City
ID, CityName
Dim_Profession
  ID, ProfessionName

As u can see there is two company references in my fact table, and the schema is in snowflake. My customer requirements state that the Contracts' amounts can be aggregated/filtered for/by, ServiceProviderCompany, its city/profession or ClientCompay, its city/profession.

First thing came in to my mind is to dublicate whole dimension structure (one for serviceproviders, one for clients), which i thought that there should be another way around?

Analysis :: Order Of Rows In Tabular Table Not In Same Order Data Was Retrieved?

May 19, 2015

I never paid much attention to this before but I noticed this today in a new table I was creating.

For tables defined in the tabular model the table properties have something like SELECT Blah FROM TableName ORDER BY Blah Then in the tabular model the table's data is in the same order it was ordered by in the data source for the table.

I have a date table I setup and I noticed it is NOT respecting the sort order.

I have it sorted by DateID which sorts with the oldest date first and newest date as last row.However, the table that is imported and stored in the data model is not in that order.

I can of course manually sort the rows in BIDS/DataTools, but I find this discrepancy odd.

Would this have negative impacts on the EARLIER function for example if the data rows are not in the order specified?

Power Pivot :: Define SSAS Tabular Measures In Batch?

Nov 19, 2015

We have an Excel PowerPivot model that we are trying to move to SSAS Tabular. The model is complex and has over 300 measures. To group these in Excel, we pasted in dummy tables and defined the measures in logical groupings. Now when we are migrating to SSAS, we have to delete the pasted tables --that have ALL of the measures, in order for the import to work successfully.

How to migrate the model? We have a nice report of all of the measures from DAX Studio, but I am not looking forward to manually re-entering 300 measures through the user interface. Is there any way to define measures in batch? Or is there a way to change the pasted table to a file so the import will work? Will the import work in SSAS 2016?
