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.

This is a cross-post from the Office PPS Planning site: http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3379691&SiteID=17 I was hoping there may be some additional MDX resources here.
I'm trying to determine if the currentmember of the time dimension is > or < the value of today. I want to use this to change the the value of a member that I display on columns from actual (for prior to today) to forecast (after today). I have this MDX:
with
member [measures].[PYCY] as IIf(VBA!CInt(Format(VBA!Now(),"MM"))<10, VBA!CStr(VBA!CInt(VBA!Year(VBA!Now())-1)), VBA!CStr(VBA!CInt(VBA!Year(VBA!Now())+0)))
member [measures].[CYNY] as IIf(VBA!CInt(Format(VBA!Now(),"MM"))<10, VBA!CStr(VBA!CInt(VBA!Year(VBA!Now())+0)), VBA!CStr(VBA!CInt(VBA!Year(VBA!Now())+1)))
member [measures].[NYNY2] as IIf(VBA!CInt(Format(VBA!Now(),"MM"))<10, VBA!CStr(VBA!CInt(VBA!Year(VBA!Now())+1)), VBA!CStr(VBA!CInt(VBA!Year(VBA!Now())+2)))
member [measures].[test2] as Format(Now(), "yyyyMM")
member [measures].[test4] as [Time].[Day View].CurrentMember.Member_Key
member [measures].[diff] as DateDiff('m', Format(Now(), "yyyyMM"),[Time].[Day View].CurrentMember.Member_Key)
select
StrToSet('{' + Generate(Descendants(
{strtomember('[Time].[Day View].[year].&[' + [measures].[PYCY] + ']'), strtomember('[Time].[Day View].[year].&[' + [measures].[CYNY] + ']'), strtomember('[Time].[Day View].[year].&[' + [measures].[NYNY2] + ']') }
, [Time].[Day View].[Month]), [Time].[Day View].CurrentMember.UNIQUE_NAME, ", ") + '}')
* {[measures].[test2],[Measures].[test4],[measures].[diff]}
on 0,

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?

Hi,
I have Created Dimension Security by restricting the user to see only his information whoever login to the system by creating a new role. It is working fine by checking the cubes by changing the role through change user option but when the cube was integrate it to any Analysis services reporting tool(Excel, Proclarity) inspite of the roles mentioned it displays the records of all the user.
Can anyone please help me out in this situation???

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?

I am in a situation to slice a fact in two date dimension .. my <g class="gr_ gr_73 gr-alert gr_spell ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace" data-gr-id="73" id="73">sql</g> code is like this
select count(1) from fact_table where end_date >=(selecteddate on filter) and startdate <=end_date .

If I have a dimension with 3 records like this:
BrokerDimId BrokerNm
1 Broker1
2 Broker2
3 Broker3
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?

The Member_Key we can get by the method suggested in the post, but when we get the Member_Key, Id as Measures/members then performance is very slow.
Is there any way i can get the Member_key in a set in rows section.

With SET [UniqueName] AS [Geography].[Country].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME
Select Measures.Value on Columns,
UniqueName on Rows
From Cube
I want the value as just like

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?

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.

I am unable to find solution for the problem while writing a Named Set in my cube.
I have a calculated measures which gives me difference in Sales in PERCENTAGE (%).
When I try to filter out those product codes which went a less than 5 %, I get no records.
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
FILTER([X].[Products Code].members, [Measures].[Diff in Sales]<5)
I believe as the values are in percentage, I am facing this issue.

I have a parent Child attribute in my dimension. It show the correct ID value in the reports but when I change the value from the NameColumn to be something else it still only shows the ID value. I have an identical case in another dimension and it is working correctly. However this dimension for some reason does not seem to work and I believe they are built the same way I must be missing something. I have tried to show the OrgNodeID and tried to display the OrgNodename but neither displays all it displays is the intdimParentOrgNodeID.My dimension table looks something like this
intdimOrgNodeID int Key (surreget key)
intOrgNodeID int (Actual ID)

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
Here's the DESIRED output........

Also i have a measure 'Holdings'
I would like to create calculated measure which should give me closing holdings at all levels(week ,Month,Quarter and year levels.) whichever i pull in the browse pane.
Below calculated measure would show the holdings for whatever the level you have specified.
([Measures].[Holdings],
ClosingPeriod( [DIM BI DATE].[Calendar].[WEEK], [DIM BI DATE].[Calendar].CurrentMember
))
But this measure shows the value for only week attribute.
for month,([Measures].[Holdings],ClosingPeriod( [DIM BI DATE].[Calendar].[Month],
[DIM BI DATE].[Calendar].CurrentMember ))
But my aim is to create a calculated measure to give closing value for any level.

I've got a dimension built from a fact (whatever that's called?) ... it's a date interval field, i.e. 0-5 weeks, 6-10 weeks 11+ weeks. How do I sort these members in the respective order? Looks like this currently:
The problem lies in the fact that I don't have any secondary attributes to order it by, i.e. it's not a physical dimension where I can use a key for the 3 members. I was hoping I wouldn't need to create a separate dimension to get round this.
