I'm trying to create a percentile rank function based on the standard WIKI version:
I've seen Brian Knight's article here, but that only deals with percentile.
Where I'm struggling is getting the count of members in a set using a measure, in the current context on the same hierarchy, as the filter expression. I'm using the comparative set as in belonging to the same geographical location, and therefore associating by another attribute.
So, cl as below:
MEMBER [Measures].[RegionPercentileCount] AS Count( Filter( NonEmpty( descendants(Ancestor( [Supplier].[NameMap].CurrentMember, [Supplier].[NameMap].[Region]), [Supplier].[NameMap].[Supplier Id]), [Measures].[ActiveMeasure]) , [Measures].[ActiveMeasure] < ([Supplier].[NameMap].CurrentMember, [Measures].[ActiveMeasure])))
Using the same measure and context hierarchy is always going to be equal, and therefore the count is always zero. Its almost as if I need a nested context for the FILTER which allows me to use enumerate the set on the same hierarchy whilst maintaining the external reference.
I'm thinking that perhaps I'm going to have to create another hierarchy and use that as the filter set and reference through StrToMember or similar.
In my cube there are two measures which are used in different calculations.Now I'm need to show in report if there any months in data when both or even another one of the measures is not updated (value = 0 or NULL).
how should I create the calculated measure for that?
I have tried in mgmt studio to plan this but I'm in a loop of errors.
Is it possible to filter out a measure only at the intersection of Two dimension members? I have a date dimension, a Hospital dimension and a wait time measure.
For Example, is it possible to filter out Wait time for Bayside Hospital for the Month of June 2015?
I want Wait time to continue to be displayed for all other months and roll up into the totals without the filtered value.
One of my models has order data, cost per order/invoice ID and then dimensions on Fiscal Year, category, etc...the usual.
A user wanted to search it for an exact order amount. (They knew for example that one of our accounts was not balancing by single order worth $746.13 and assumed it must be an order that was placed but never marked shipped that slipped through the cracks).
Now, in the model I have "order amount" as a field and then a measure that sums that.
I could expose that "order amount" field as a label and let them filter on it in Excel (and that works).
However, I haven't had any luck filtering on the actual measure "Total Order Amount". Such as OrderID-> View Filter -> "Total Order Amount" equals 746.13.
I assume this is due to a few things:
Measure calculates at different levels so filtering on a measure is difficult as you would have to place all the "slicers" and set them first before the measure would "exist" at a level where it could be $746.13. Orders by year would have $746.13 as part of it's year sum, but wouldn't exist as a stand alone line item orders by year 2015 might be 2 million.
Orders by category might exist at 500,000, 8,000, 15,146.36, etc... but not $746.13.
So I would need OrderID on there as a column so the measure could return at the value of $746.13 for one row for it to match the filter?
Basically: 1. Why it can't really filter on a measure? 2. Is there a better way to accomplish this other than exposing the actual column in the fact table "order amount" as it feels like that could cause all kinds of confusion if other users try to slice/filter on that not realizing exactly what it is meant to be?
The user wants to be able, using excel, to apply a filter to all measures in every measure group. I though that I can create a dimension with a single level with two members, let´s say "on" and "off" and depending on the selected member and using an IIF statement decide which formula applies to the calculated measures.
I have serious doubts about the performance and for this technique because I am thinking as a .Net developer and not as a cube developer. Maybe it is better to resolve it scoping the measures but I cannot figure it out.
I have an issue related to SSAS security. We have an SSAS multidimensional cube which needs 3 types of security:
- Access to the entire cube => OK, based upon a role - Restricted access to one department (= dimension) => OK, based upon a role - Access to the entire cube, but with dynamic security on 2 measures.
Let's say, we have 2 departments (food and non-food). Users within food are allowed to see sales and pieces from the food department, but not from the non-food department.
It is not an option to restrict access to the non-food department because there are other measure which they have access to. I tried cell security, but this is very slow and generates multiple empty rows on my selections.
i want to create a new measure that will behave based on the dimension dropped,ex. if i added the employee dimension only it will aggregate data from the #Calls Count but if i added the product dimension it should display # Product Calls at the product level and #Calls Count at the employee level as shown in the screen shot.
I am wondering how to create a matrix that contains 1 dimension for Top Label (Column), let's say "Year-Month" and then 2 Measure to be in the row format rather than columnar format. Example as below : Year-Month on the column, and the measure is on the row :
2007-04 2007-05 2007-06
Amount Sales 1000 2000 3000
Unit Sales 10 20 30
Total 1010 2020 3030
Please share with me if you have this solution in Reporting services as it works in excel, hyperion brio, bo, cognos but somehow cannot see that function in Reporting Services.
I have a dataset that needs to return "Fatalities Involving drivers age 15-17". For years 2003 , 2004, 2005.
So i set up 3 different filters: Year : 2003,2004,2005
Person type: Driver
Age : 15,16,17
Now this is fine for getting a crash count and fatalities (for teen drivers). But i want the fatalities for everyone ( All Person Types) and (All Ages) ...how do i go about this. All i get right now, is the fatalities for Drivers 15-17.
In SSAS, I want to add a calculated measure and set that measure as the Parent of existing measure. For example I have the measures as A and B from the fact table. Now i want to add a calculated measure as C and set this measure as Parent for measures A and B. How to do that in SSAS.
We have a fact table where one of the measures in that fact table is invoice balance. Some of our reports requirements list that they only want to see the sum of those invoices where the balance is greater than X dollars. How do I go about filtering calculations based on a measures value?
Any way to create a measure that filters the second column to mimic the behavior of only filtering for slicer for the Open Pool Date values as per the image below. Ultimately, I need to create a measure that only includes accounts that were opened 6 months prior to the month row context.
Trying to get the values in the second column to only include aging accounts 6 months prior instead of 12 months prior.
The data attached below is from a Fact table. When this data is browsed in the Cube the end user is only interested in value of Measure 1 when it is not equal to zero. Measure 1 is a base measure .how to suppress the value 0 for Measure 1 in the Cube.
I am trying to count a set as a calculated measure, when this set is called directly in the row , it returns fast, but when i try to count the set as calculated measure(so i can slice with another dimension) the query keeps running forever.
The queries are below
select {} on 0, nonempty ( {([Transaction].[RPC Count].&[1],[Transaction].[Account ID].[Account ID])} , {([Account].[PAYMENTSTATUS].&[0],[Account].[Account ID].[Account ID])} ) on 1
I have a wide fact table that I'm feeding to an SSAS cube. I was advised that splitting the measure group into two will improve performance when querying the cube.
I cannot find any documentation that supports this, in fact I get a blue curved line suggesting that I merge the measure groups since they have the same dimensionality and granularity.
I guess the best practice is what the blue line states, but without knowing the internals of SSAS I can undestand that a smaller measure group may be easier to handle, or create more specific aggregations for.
I'm trying to show measures from 2 measures groups in a drillthrough. Obviously, it's not possible with a standard drillthrough action, but I still hope that I can somehow achieve this with the ASSP GetCustomDrillthroughMDX function.
Speaking in AdventureWorks2008R2 terms: Imagine I have a pivot table with Product Categories in filter (say, filtered on Gloves) and "Internet Sales Amount" as measure. From context menu in Excel I can call the drillthrough action which shows me the individual sales records. I would like to show in drillthrough additionally "End of Day Rate" measure from "Exchange Rates" measure group.
One option would be to join FactInternetSales with FactCurrencyRate and make EndOfDayRate a physical measure in the "Internet Sales" measure group. This is a pretty huge overhead for my scenario and I'd like to avoid this.
Another one would be to call something completely external for a drillthrough (for example, a SRRS Report).
When I am executing below MDX query, it's giving correct result with out any issue
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Daystorecieve] , [Measures].[PO Recieved], [Measures].[Post Award Milestone PO Analysis Count], [Measures].[Powith80pct Received]
[Code] ....
After the successful execution of the above query, I am trying to filter on my measure group [Measures].
[Daystorecieve] values not equal to "0". With minimum number of the dimension selection my query executing fine.
Please find the below query.
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Daystorecieve] , [Measures].[PO Recieved], [Measures].[Post Award Milestone PO Analysis Count], [Measures].[Powith80pct Received] } ON COLUMNS,
[Code] ....
But, when I am trying to execute with total number of dimensions. It's running long time and giving out of memory exception. Is there any way to apply where condition on my measure group like where [Measures].[Daystorecieve]<>0.
we are having an existing cube in that we need to update with new measures . The Measure groups are added to the cube as linked object. so when we are updating the measure group it is throwing the exceptions as follows..“Errors in the OLAP storage engine: The metadata for the statically linked measure group, with the name of 'SalesActual', cannot be verified against the source object.”
I am using the following approach to enable dynamic date calculations: [URL] ...
However, some measures I work with are percentages (not numeric values) and demand a different formula.
See example snippet bellow (first IIF statement)
/*Calendar*/ [Date Calculation].[Calculation].[Calendar Actual versus PY WK %] = IIF ( [measures].Name = "HSP2 %", -- < ThIs is where I am trying to check if the measure is a percetgae type 0, -- < When this is the case then do something different
[Code] ....
I am trying to access the metadata. I am aware of $system.mdschema_measures but I am unable to utulize this for my case.
I can pull a last processed date for the entire model: URL...That works great for showing the last time anything in the entire model was processed. It is not table specific. Updating / processing table A also changes the timestamp on tables B and C.However, if I want to look at just a specific table in the model (build a column for each fact table and a measure to go with it) I find that doing any process operation updates all the =Now() columns in all the fact tables.If I have a model with 3 fact tables and I do a process table using ProcessFull on one of them, all three tables calculated columns "LastProcessed" =NOW() are updated. URL...
Is there a way to setup a measure in the model on a per table level to show last processed date for each individual table? LastDataRefresh:= MAX ('TableA'[LastProcessed])
For example: Our sales table may update three times a day, where as our warehouse inventory table is only updated nightly.I wanted to let end users see by adding a measure for each table when the last process event was for a given table in the model.
Developing a Retail cube using SSAS 2012. One of the dimension is DimCustomer with SCD type II. Each Customer can be a member or a non-member over a period of time. We have StartDt and EndDt to reflect the membership status.
eg: Joe is a member between 06-01-2014 and 31-08-2014 Joe is a non-member between 09-01-2014 and 01-31-2015 Joe is a member between 02-01-2015 and 04-30-2015 Joe is a non-member between 05-01-2015 and 12-31-9999
Without adding fact row of Joe for each day to reflect the membership status, I want to provide the ability to measure "Active Customers Count" on a given date. There are 2 million customers in the DimCustomer Table.
