Analysis :: Subset Dimension Linked Two Times?

Aug 6, 2015

I have a cube with some dimensions (dim1,dim2,dim3).I want to add another dimension (dim4) based on dim1 but more restricted.Eg. Dim1 is a product dimension, and I will create Dim4 from a subset of Dim1 (only few and predetermined products).

I will create a view (or a named query) with the appropriate where clause, create a dimension on this view/namedQ, then add on the existant cube and link it on dimension usage. Great. But in this way in the cube I haven't all fact data but only data for the product of Dim4! (Dim1 is still present).

eg: in fact data I have a total of 100$ of sales for all the products, if I link the Dim4 then the sales amount is 40$, that is the value for the product in Dim4 not for all product (I can't set the filter for Dim1/Dim4 in excel). I haven't found any way for get the 100$.

I try with two Date dimension: the first from 01/01/2010 to 31/12/2015 and the second from 01/01/2015 to 31/12/2015. If I link both I see only data for the second period (only 2015).

it seems that the more restrictive dimension trumps.What's wrong? There are other ways to get what I want? I've tried the property "DependOnDimension" but without results.

I won't publish the attribute used in the WHERE clause on the dimension.

Analysis :: Hierarchy Based On Dimension Table Joined Multiple Times Against A Fact Table?

Aug 11, 2015

I am working on a model where I have a sales fact table. Each fact record has four different customer fields (ship- to, sold-to, payer, and bill-to customer). I have one customer dimension table that joins to the sales fact table four times (once for each of the customer fields above).  When viewing the data in Excel, I would like to have four hierarchies (ship -to, sold-to, payer, and bill-to customer) within Customer. 

Is there a way to build hierarchies within my Customer dimension based on the same Customer table?  What I want is to view the data in Excel and see the Customer dimension.  Within Customer, I want four hierarchies.

Analysis :: Tabular Refresh Times Out

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.

Transact SQL :: Shift Analysis - CAST Using Times

Nov 9, 2015

I am doing some analysis on shifts and what I want to do is say if the time from a timestamp field is between 00:00 and 05:59 then the figures belong to the day before.  Eg.  We have a night shift that work 22:00 - 06:00.

Here is my coding which logically looks sound to me but when I run it, it has an error:

SELECTe.ID,
CAST(e.TimestampasDate)asEventDate,
CAST(e.TimestampasTime)asEventTime,
CASE

Analysis :: How To Get Dimension Key Attribute In MDX

Apr 30, 2015

Many 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?

Analysis Services Dimension Question

Apr 16, 2004

I have a database with millions of users with email addresses. I want to create an email domain dimension that groups domains into all the big email domains (hotmail, aol, yahoo) and an "other" consisting of all the other domains. I can create a table with entries for the big domains, and get the grouping working but anything that is not a big domain will get thrown out rather than put into an "other" category.

Any idea how to get such an "other" category?

Analysis :: Can Use CurrentMember In Dimension Security

Aug 19, 2015

I am trying to define the security based on Current Member.

Can i put following statement in the DimensionData - Allowed Members Set

EXISTS([Dim M].[Emp No].MEMBERS, [Security EMP].[Role].CurrentMember, "Uvw Security Emp ")

So that the list of EMP Nos that are visible changes when a different Role is selected (Filtered).

If not then is there any other way of achieving the same? What I want is that the list of EMP No that are visible should change when the user filters it using "Role" attribute in the "Uvw Security Emp" dimension. 

If I add the Role attribute in the Dim M Dimension I think it will unnecessarily calculate aggregations, etc.

Analysis :: MDX Display All Dimension Records

Jun 15, 2015

If I have a dimension with 3 records like this:

BrokerDimId  BrokerNm
1  Broker1
2  Broker2

And I have a fact table that has 2 rows that join back to the first 2 dimension rows like this:

BrokerDimId  Amt
1  $100
2  $200

I want to create the mdx so that I get all of the dimension rows, even if there is no record in the fact table for it and just default the amount to 0, like this

BrokerDimId  Amt
1  $100
2  $200
3  $0

Is this possible using MDX?

Analysis :: Calculation Based On Dimension Value

Oct 8, 2015

Need to resolve this calculation, which I would believe is something very common on SSAS environments. 

Like many companies, my company has different ways of calculating Sales and the two I want to focus are Sales Gross and Sales Net. 

At a high level, we calculate Sales Gross as Sales with returns, and Sales Net as Sales without returns.

We have an attribute called Order Type that has various types of orders a user can execute with my company. One of them is Returns. If you return something back to us, we record that as a return line on the sales table. With that, we can calculate that return, breaking data down by Order Type, such as:

Order Type Line Total

Mail Orders $ 776,655.44

Internet Orders $ 2,211,334.00

Call Center Orders $ 11,223,344.00

Credit Orders  $ (55,666.00)

Today, to calculate Sales Gross and Sales Net, we are creating two dimensions: DimSalesGross and DimSalesNet. 

To calculate Sales Gross, we leave the data at the natural state, not making any changes to mappings. 

To calculate Sales Net, we map Credit Orders to Call Center Orders at the ETL level, getting a Net value for sales (Orders - Returns), however, I doubt this is the correct way of doing. 

I would like to have a Line Total Net / Line Total Gross calculation, which would be based on the Order Type value.

Perhaps using a CASE statement in MDX? Is the above possible?

Linked Server Multiple Times

May 15, 2000

I need to create a linked server that can access more than one database.
I assume, the only wat this can be done by creating two separate links from the local server using Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL server. But the
problem is the Server Name. I cannot use the same servername twice and
if I use a name that is not an exisiting SQL server name I get an error
that "server not found".

So, how do I addlink the same server a mulitple times to access different databases in the server?

Thanks.

I have also tried to filter direct values lets say - Products with sales > 100000 which is working fine.

Following is sample of my Named Set

I believe as the values are in percentage, I am facing this issue.

Analysis :: MDX Need To Filter Measures Based On A Dimension

Oct 26, 2015

I am pretty new to MDX and am having trouble getting what I need out of this MDX query. Some business rules:

Gross Amount applies to all clients, whether Type A or Type B.  I always want to return Gross Amount.Some clients are Type A, some are Type B, some are both, and some are neither.There are Type A Net Amount and Type B Net Amount values for all clients, but I only want to display the Type A Net value if the client is a Type A client, only Type B if the client is a Type B, or both for both, and neither for neither.  I would like to return blank/null, not $0.00, for those values that should not be displayed.

Here's the basic query.  

SELECT { [Measures].[Gross Amount],
[Measures].[Type A Net Amount],
[Measures].[Type B Net Amount]
} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY {[Dim Client].[Parent Client Code].[Parent Client Code] *
[Dim Client].[Child Client Code].[Child Client Code] *
[Dim Client].[Is Type A].CHILDREN *
[Dim Client].[Is Type B].CHILDREN
} ON ROWS
FROM ClientInfo
