how to move the dimension attributes from currency to geography and vice versa(i.e need to change their positions) in SQL Server 2012. i need currency to be placed in top of geography or geography below currency.
View 6 RepliesI have a cube with a fact table and 3 dimensions. One of the dimensions is a type 2 and surrogate key is stored in fact table. If i query the database, the dimension attributes display correctly, however the cube is always displaying the latest dimension attribute and not preserving the history.
The measures are correct for the time period displayed, but the dimension attributes always show the latest values.
I have 5 cubes, and hierachy defined for all cubes. for example:geography database with 5 continents as cubes and contries as dimensions.Now when i am doing security restrictions on my dimension ex: In USA dimension if i want only to give access to texas region then i should be able to see only texas cities. But i cansee all the states under USA even after selecting only Texas region under Dimension data tab inside ROles section in SSMS.I have tried security at database ,cube level as well as dimension level.But still not working.is that because of some wrong design of cubes or something related to database design.? I am not able to undersand that except roles everything in my cubes or datawarehouse is working fine without and defect in data.

At the yearly aggregate level I don't want it to sum up the avg number of students from every month because that number is incorrect. I would like it to use the number of students from the most recent month as a roll up. Is that possible to configure in SSAS?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my SSAS Cube I have created a dynamic named set "top 10 e-learnings by language" which consists out of a set of tuples. Each tuple has two attributes out of the same base dimension "training": attribute 1 is "sprache" (language) and attribute 2 is "training text".
CREATE DYNAMIC SET CURRENTCUBE.[Top 10 eTrainings pro Sprache]

{ [Training].[Sprache].[Sprache].Members },
TopCount(
EXISTING { [Training].[Sprache].CurrentMember * [Training].[Training Text].[Training Text].Members },
10,
[Measures].[Teilnahmen eTraining]

), DISPLAY_FOLDER = 'Training' ;
Normally a named set would be automatically visible in Excel Pivot under the dimension you used to create the named set, but it seems that named sets with tuples which have more than one attribute are placed in a separate folder "Sets" in between the measures and dimensions.Additionally in the SSAS cube browser this named set is not visible at all.Is there any way to tell the named set in which dimension it should appear or any workaround?
I have created SSAS Tabular model project.
I have dimensions like XYZID, Names, Zone etc.
When I create a measure using count function for XYZID. The name of the measure is Count of XYZID.
Its the same which gets displayed in Excel while I connect the model.
How to rename the "Count of XYZID" to ABC ??
For Example: I have one dimension named as "Name", Under this I have "FirstName" and "LastName" Attributes are there.But when i drag "Name" dimension, By default "First Name" dragged. But i Want "Last Name" should drag.

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?
I have an SSIS and SSAS project in the same solution. I need to debug the SSIS package regardless if there is an error or two in the SSAS project. Is there a way to ignore the SSAS project while I debug the SSIS package?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to implement data masking based on user login and not sure why this is not working. I have the dimensions DimBrand, DimProduct and DimUser. I should mask the BrandCode with 'XXXX' nothing but in the report all the BrandCode should appear but few of the code will be masked if the user is not belongs to that group. I have a fact table FactProduct in this. In the cube I created all these 3 dimensions and the fact table. I created a new dimension DimBrandMask and I separated the code over there with a relationship with the actual DimBrand dimension. In the cube a reference relationship is set up with the measure group. Created a role with read access.
In the dimension data tab of role I put the below MDX to allowed set.
NonEmpty([DimBrandMask].[Brand Code].Members, (StrToMember("[DimUser].[Login Name].[Login Name].[" + UserName() + "]") ,[Measures].[Dim User Count]))
And in Denied Member set i put the below MDX
IIF( (StrToMember("[DimUser].[Login Name].[Login Name].[" + UserName() + "]"), [DimUser].[Access Right].&[False]), NONEMPTY( [DimBrandMask].[Brand Code].Members,(StrToMember("[DimUser].[Login Name].[Login Name].["
+ UserName() + "]"), [DimUser].[Access Right].&[False], [Measures].[Dim User Count])),{})
Note I created one measure group from the DimUser table and the measure [Dim User Count] is used in the above query.
I am expecting some result like below
Brand BrandCode Count
Brand1 b1 6
Brand2 XXXXX 5
Brand3 XXXXX 10
I have built a fact table and few dimension views in Datamart with the aim of creating a Cube.
On the Fact table I have added a CASE Statement with the following threshold for Premium due amounts:
CASE WHEN....
'Due_0-1_Month'
'Due_1-2_Month'
'Due_2-3_Month'
'Due_Over_3_Months'
'Overdue_0-1_Month'
'Overdue_1-3_Month'
'Overdue_3-6_Month'
'Overdue_Over_6_Months'
...END
I then created a Dimension to link this to:
CREATE VIEW...
Select 'Due_0-1_Month' as Ageing_Threshold
union all
Select 'Due_1-2_Month'
union all
Select 'Due_2-3_Month'
[Code] ....
I was successful in processing the cube, however the problem is everytime I drag the dimension on the columns field in Pivot tables the Thresholds start to break up the other amounts that I have on display like Acquisition Costs, Tax amounts. I am only interested in showing the breakdown of Premium amount measure by the Threshold dimension.
somehow 'Hide' or 'prevent' the Threshold dimension from breaking down the other measures on the Pivot and only breakdown the amounts for Premium?

I am working on SQL 2012.We have a SSAS Cube build. On top of it client use Excel to connect to SSAS Cube and See the reports.My Cube process every hour and take almost a 1-2 min to Process.When ever End user/Client See or refresh the Excel report (Which use Cube as Source),WHEN CUBE IS PROCESSING ,they get an error that Source is not available
We Have tried best but cannot bring down the Processing time of the cube to 3-5 Second , so that End user don't face report refresh issue at the moment of cube processing
Requirement :In Case End User see the report while Cube is processing from back end , Instead of Error they should see some customize Msg which we can provide some thing Like "Data is Refreshing , please wait ".

Hello,
I've run into a problem building a new olap cube. It's taking 15 minutes or more when pulling on a dimension before I've even pulled on any measures. This happens in Excel as well as Management Studio. When it does display it seems to only show dimension members that it has data for. In addition, running profiler seems to indicate that it queries each of my partitions when it's doing this. I know that in my last cube if you pulled on a dimension, no members would show up yet and it would be fast. However I can't seem to find the property that's telling it not to query the partitions to determine what members to show. Any ideas?

I have a have a relatively simple SSAS cube that I'm trying to display in a matrix but the order of the data is not correct. The rows of the matrix are a time hierarchy and the query designer produces the correct MDX and when I run the MDX in the data tab, the order is correct. However in the report preview tab, the order is incorrect. Specifically, the time hierarchy looks like this Year-Month-FullDate. The report is ordering the Months like this 1,10,11,12,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. I ran the MDX query in Sql Studio and the order is correct, and I used Excel to consume the same cube and it produces the correct order.
The report is somehow treating the Month like character data instead of numeric, how do I fix this?
I am unable to see my DSV when I try to edit my dimension. I have added some new fields in my dimension table and now want to use them in my cube dimension.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMany dimensions don't have unique members. Instead, the dimension source data has duplicates at the leaf level: it's left up to SSAS to aggregate up to the actual leaf level used in hierarchies.
Every cube I've worked on in the past, a dimension is clearly defined in the source data, with uniqueness already present there: we don't make a dimension out of duplicated, sort of facty data. This kind of design seems as weird to me as an unnormalised SQL database.
Here's an example to illustrate what I mean; I'll use that Adventureworks database.
We have a Geography dimension with a Geography hierarchy. Levels go like this from top to bottom:
Country
State-Province
City
Postcode
The Geography dimension has a key attribute called Geography Key. It's there in the cube design as a dimension attribute, but it's not in any of the hierarchies, so I can't query it in MDX. But that's fine: it has the same cardinality as the lowest level (Postal Code), because the dimension has some kind of normal design.
In the cube I'm dealing with, it's all messed up. Using the AdventureWorks example above as a parallel, someone made a Geography dimension with source data keyed on [PostalCode, ExactAddress], but only wanted the dimension granularity to be PostalCode.
This makes it very hard to debug why the data in this dimension is incorrect. I can't match up the dimension members in the cube to the source data, because the dimension doesn't actually go down to the real leaf level!
So I have a dimension attribute called ExactAddressKey, but I can't query on it in MDX, because it's not part of any dimension hierarchy. Unfortunately changing any part of this cube design is not possible, so I can't even experiment with settings and see what happens.
How I could get to the leaf level of the data imported? Something like
Geography.Geography.TheInvisibleLeafLevel.Members.Properties('Key')
Or does this kind of dimension design result in SSAS discarding all the data that's more granular than the most granular attribute defined in any hierarchy - so that the data actually isn't there to be queried?
