View 6 RepliesI'm using a DW from Northwind database to build a cube to do some analitical taks. I already create the cube and now I am "cleaning" the dimensions. I'm having some difficults to understand the logical off this part. The reason is that When I create the Data Source View, I only import the Foreign Keys that connect the Dimensions to Fact_Table. I have to drag the attributes of Dimension from Data Source View to the tab attributes?
Imagine this:
I have the following dimension:
Dim_Customer:
Customer_ID
Name_Customer
Job_Function
Date_of_Birth
Contact
Address
City
Country
When I create the cube only Customer_ID appears in attributes tab, it's normal?
One more question:
I don't want to create a hierarchy like:
Customer ID -> Name_Customer
Customer ID -> Date_of_Birth
Customer ID -> Address
Customer ID -> City
Customer ID -> Country
My idea is to create the following hierarchy:
Name_Customer -> Date_of_Birth -> Address -> City -> Country
But the first hierarchy that I show is always appears to me. Do you know what is happens?
Hello all-
I have a specification table that has some attributes defined.
SpecId - Id of the specification
Attribute - Attribute of the spec. (Like Color, HP etc)
Value - Is the value of the attribute
Then I have a car table that actually has information about the cars. Intention is to take each specification and match the cars that match the specification. If the car has more attributes than the spec, we ignore the extra attributes for the match. But if the car has less attributes, we don't even consider the car as a match (even if the attributes present, match). To summarize, the car's attributes should be >= spec's attributes.
The code I have below is bad because I am joining the same tables twice. In addition, it fails in the condition "the car's attributes should be >= spec's attributes"
Any help is greatly appreciated.

How can we select translated text of cube translations, like measures, dimensions, dimension attributes. I have below query which return translations of dimension attribute's memebers
WITH
MEMBER Measures.CategoryCaption AS Product.Category.CurrentMember.MEMBER_CAPTION
MEMBER Measures.SpanishCategoryCaption AS Product.Category.CurrentMember.Properties("LCID3082")
MEMBER Measures.FrenchCategoryCaption AS Product.Category.CurrentMember.Properties("LCID1036")
SELECT
{ Measures.CategoryCaption, Measures.SpanishCategoryCaption, Measures.FrenchCategoryCaption } ON 0
,[Product].[Category].MEMBERS ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works]
I am getting translations of product category members but I want to get translated text of "Category"?
I have a calculation that granularity is on a specific level and therefore would like the calculation to be only visible/calculate when with a specific dimension structure & attributes
SCOPE([Measures].[Complaint Rate]);
SCOPE([Item Dimension].[Item Structure].Members);
this=(IIF([Measures].[Sales Units]=0,NULL,(([Measures].[Count]/[Measures].[Sales Units])*1000000)));
END SCOPE;
END SCOPE;
This displays the calculation all the time even if no item attributes are selected, I only want the calculation applicable to the structure & attributes belonging to structure - I tried children, currentmember etc. but no luck - its probably something small I am missing. Tried this too
this=(IIF([Measures].[Sales Units]=0,NULL,(([Item Dimension].[Item Structure].CURRENTMEMBER,[Measures].[Count]/[Item Dimension].[Item Structure].CURRENTMEMBER,[Measures].[Sales Units])*1000000)));

I have a requirement to set Description values for our cube dimensions and attributes.
I've done this for regular dimensions but I cant seem to find a way for role playing dimensions. I can set the base dimension descriptions but not the 'clones'. Is this possible?
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 have 3 tables having refrential integrity on id on column on each table
TABLEA contains 5 million rows
TABLEB contains 50 thousand rows
TABLEC contails 5 thousand rows
i have a proc that have 3 in parameter that are actually values of some of the columns in that table one parameter for each table.what is the optimized way to write query to get records on the basis of in parameters from these tables.
I am working in SQL Server Master Data Services Version 11.0.5058.0 (SP 2).
I have been asked to group all the financial attributes together. When I move one of the attributes up using the arrows, it works good jumping over one attribute at a time. Then I reach a section of attributes where it leap frogs over 24 attributes.
It appears these 24 attributes are in a subgroup but there are no attribute groups and I removed the subscription view from the entity. If I move one of the 24 attributes in the group, it moves it outside of the 24 attributes.
This is under leaf member attributes. There are no collection or consolidated groups.
I have a query written that filters on joined table data. The SELECT looks like this:
SELECT *
FROM tbl_bol AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
bol_status AS b ON b.bol_status_id = a.bol_status_id LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl_carrier AS c ON c.carrier_id = a.carrier_id
WHERE (a.carrier_name LIKE 'five%') AND
(a.accrueamt = 0) AND
(a.imported = 1) AND
(b.description = 'tendered') AND
(a.ship_date BETWEEN '9/1/13' AND '9/30/13')
ORDER BY a.bol_number DESC
If I want to do an UPDATE query that uses those filters in the WHERE clause, how do I go about doing that? It doesn't look like you can used joined tables in the UPDATE line like this:
UPDATE tbl_bol AS a LEFT OUTER JOIN
bol_status AS b ON b.bol_status_id = a.bol_status_id LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl_carrier AS c ON c.carrier_id = a.carrier_id
SET accrueamt='1348'
WHERE (a.carrier_name LIKE 'five%') AND
(a.accrueamt = 0) AND
(a.imported = 1) AND
(b.description = 'tendered') AND
(a.ship_date BETWEEN '9/1/13' AND '9/30/13')
How to see text of the query involved in deadlock ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a deadlock trace running on a production server that is filling up with the following:

How to list all the dimension and fact column names with mdx or tsql query...
SO I have a need to to limit the members of a dimension that get included with a query to just a few. So that means specifying which ones. How do I limit the main set based on a defined list of members in one of the dimensions im using.
In the query below, I need to limit the number of dimension members being included for CommType and MetricType. I get errors if I use a list of specific members in a where clause that includes these same dimensions.
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[YTD Actual]
AS
SUM({[DimCalendar].[Month Year].&[2015]&[1] : STRTOMEMBER('[DimCalendar].[Month Year].&[' + CSTR(YEAR(NOW())) + ']&[5]') }

Ok, I want to write a stored procedure / query that says the following:
Code:
If any of the items in list 'A' also appear in list 'B' --return false
If none of the items in list 'A' appear in list 'B' --return true
In pseudo-SQL, I want to write a clause like this
Code:
IF
(SELECT values FROM tableA) IN(SELECT values FROM tableB)
Return False
ELSE
Return True
Unfortunately, it seems I can't do that unless my subquery before the 'IN' statement returns only one value. Needless to say, it returns a number of values.
I may have to achieve this with some kind of logical loop but I don't know how to do that.
Can anyone help?
Have a need to let the user select the year and month to use for filtering results from an MDX query that populates a report.I think all I should need is a list of years and a Month name / number.What would the filter look like if say I had a Date dimension that included the year number in a 4-digit and month in a 2-digit number? In TSQL it would be something like ... where Month = @month AND Year = @year...How do I get a distinct list of member values for the month numbers from the Date dimension?

I have restored a db from a live environment to my dev envorinment. This db on live is a replication publisher.
My dev environment has no replication, but when I try to modify the schema in the db I restored I get the following error
"Server: Msg 4932, Level 16, State 1, Line 441
ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN failed because 'url_web1' is currently replicated."
Does anyone know what I have to do to restore the database on my de box so it 'forgets' its live replication settings?
On my dev server I have no items in the replication folder in Enterprise Manager but it seems replication details are stored somewhere, perhaps in the backup itself?

99/06/11 12:59:24.29 spid1 SQL Server's default sort order is:
99/06/11 12:59:24.29 spid1 'nocase' (ID = 52)

Hi Guys,
We already have work around when it comes to read xml data type from remote servers
remote server (eurodata3) table
create table temp_asaf
(
xmlCol XML
)
SELECT
Cast(a.XML_Data as XML) as XML_Data
FROM
OPENQUERY(eurodata3,'
SELECT TOP 10
Cast(xmlCol as Varchar(MAX)) as XML_Data
FROM
em_port.dbo.temp_asaf'
) a
Here is a question for you. How do I insert data into remote server when data type for a column is xml?
INSERT OPENQUERY (eurodata3, '
SELECT Cast(xmlCol as Varchar(MAX)) AS xmlCol
FROM em_port.dbo.temp_asaf')
VALUES ('<html><body>MS Sql Server</body></html>');
Running above code would give me the following error:
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "eurodata3" returned message "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".
Msg 7344, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "eurodata3" could not INSERT INTO table "[SQLNCLI]" because of column "xmlCol". The user did not have permission to write to the column.
Location: memilb.cpp:1493
Expression: (*ppilb)->m_cRef == 0
SPID: 59
Process ID: 1660
Don't be misled by permission statement. I could successfully run similar query as long as the column is not xml on remote server. I would appreciate some ideas to get around with it.
Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem I think I should not in my COM+ application. I will describe the setup first and then will expose the problem.
It's a simple COM+ application (dll). Inside it, there's a method to save an object A. Object A is persisted in a table in SQL Server 2000 that uses an identity field for the primary key. What this method does is the following:
1) Insert the record for Object A via ADO
2) Retrieve the Id for the object using SCOPE_IDENTITY via ADO and set it on the object
3) Execute an UPDATE statement based on a certain condition via ADO (this UPDATE statement will fire a trigger, however the trigger will not do anything since the record does not answer the criteria for the trigger)
4) Insert a record for another Object A via ADO
5) Retrieve the Id for the object using SCOPE_IDENTITY via ADO and set it on the object
When I get to step (5), an error is raised because SCOPE_IDENTITY returns NULL. This is as if it was returning the Identity value for the trigger that did not cause any INSERT on the UPDATE statement in (3). All the steps are performed using a single connection.
The trigger will duplicate the updated record in another table if a certain flag is set, so in my case, it was not set yet.
It's just weird that this would happen. If I delete the trigger, everything works fine. @@IDENTITY gives me the same problem. It's really as if the trigger was taking over or something and unless I put something between the two steps I get this error. There's one thing though. In step (3), I was using the adCmdText flag for the ADO statement. If I use adExecuteNoRecords it works fine. However I don't understand why it would be this way, I'm trying to understand why it's not working to begin with, even though the sequence of the steps performed should.
Any idea why this would happen?
Thanks,
Greg
I have created an SSIS package which, as its 2nd step, picks up a .dbf table and does a Data Flow Task of putting the .dbf table into a SQL Server 2005 table (which was just truncated in Step 1).
The Connection Manager that works on the .dbf table is Native OLE DBMicrosoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
The entire SSIS package runs perfectly when i run it from my development environment.
I then assigned this Package to a SQL Server 2005 Job. The entire package is the sole step of the job.
But when I run the SQL Job, the Job fails immediately on Step 2.
Here is the error message in View History of the SQL Job:

I would like to provide the db_datareader and db_executor role to a particular SQL Server Login in a database
But, I would like to avoid any INSERT's, UPDATE's or DELETE's that may happen by calling the stored procedures
I tried assigning the db_denydatawriter role but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick as the INSERT's, UPDATE's and DELETE's were still working
Is there any way to provide the db_datareader and db_executor role but avoid any DML actions.
Table ATable B
AIDBID
Col 1BCol1
Col 2
Col3
I want to put a check constraint on A.col3 that depends on the values of A.Col1, A.Col2 and B.BCol1
How can I achieve this without using function.
I would like to know if it is resonable and acceptable to make reports created through SQL Server Reporting services available through our Public facing applications.
Also, what are the potential problems? Security? Impact on the SQL Server? Limit to specific types of reports?
If anyone has any info it would be greatly appreciated, I am a big fan of SQL Reporting but we are unsure if we are going to be able to use the reports on the Public side and we don't want two separate sets of reports (internal and Public).
Thanks in advance.

We have setup a replication in SQL2000:
We have DTS package automatically pouring data into the publishing database(source tables). During this process, we want to temporary disable certain triggers. However, the command
Alter table 'tbl' disable trigger 'abc' errored out. The error message said:
''Cannot alter the table 'tbl' because it is being published for replication."
I've digged more into this and found although it's not allowed to disable a triggers,
the SQLServer do allow delete the trigger and recreate them.
Is there any way to disable the trigger directly?
Thanks in advance,
Don
BTW:
I've used the following sql directly, however the trigger still fires.
UPDATE
sysobjects
SET
status = status|2048
WHERE
type = 'TR'
AND
parent_obj = OBJECT_ID (@table_name)
The only other way around now is to create stored procedures that dynamically create the trigger. Because our trigger is normmally larger than 8000 bytes. We have to create one stored procedure per trigger. This option is not acceptable because not only it takes quite a time, but also a maintainance nightmare.
