Analysis :: Parent Child Dimension Not Displaying Name Value
Apr 16, 2015
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)
intDimParentOrgNodeID
intOrgNodeName
Hi experts,having a parent-child-table with the columns child_id, child_name, parent_idin SQL Server 2005 I just cannot create a parent-child dimension in BI DevStudio. Can anyone give me some hints? The Dim Build wizard doesn't createthe hierarchies, manually setting "parent" property to parent_id and "key"to child_id as well as dragging and dropping the stuff into the hierachyfield haven't just led to success. I also tried to right-click bothparent_id and child_id to create a member property. It just never workedout.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Kind regards,Joerg
if I pass 2014 and 2015 in sub select 171 data is not coming in result. i i pass only 2014 in sub select i get value of only 2014. if I pass 2015 in sub select i didn't get any value.

I want to create a report in SSRS against a cube in SSAS 2005.
I have a Sales fact table, a Products dimension which is related directly to the fact table, and a Categories dimension which is related to the fact through Products (referenced dimension).
Fact --> Products --> Categories
In the Categories dimension i have also implemented a parent-child hierarchy. Only leaf category members are joined to Products.
Is it possible to create a report, drilling down from parent categories to child categories to products?
I 've already implememted the categories parent-child report but when i add the Products dimension in the flattened rowset, the Products seem to be joined to non-leaf category members.
I want to create a report based on an AdventureWordsAS parent-child dimension.
I created a new report item. In the Data tab i created a new dataset using AnalysisServicesAS data source. I dragged and dropped into the designer [Organization].[Organizations] and [Measures].[Financial Reporting].[Amount] from the metadata pane.
How can i configure a table control in the Layout tab, to create a drilldown report? How do i set the Group On and Parent Group fields if i have only one attribute?
I am working on an ASP.NET site to display information about authors and books. I'm working on the Author page right now and I'm having trouble getting it to display the data I want. I'm trying to do everything with declarative controls and as little code-behind as possible. I have a datasource on the main page that selects the Author data and provides this to a FormView. Inside the FormView is another datasource that takes the AuthorID as a parameter and selects the list of books, which is provided to a DataList. Inside the DataList I display some limited Book information. I also want to display some child items of the Book (grandchildren of the author), for example other authors who contributed to that book, or alternative titles. I have tried using datasources in each DataList row with a parameter set to the BookID, and it works just great, but the response time is just not acceptable. Each datasource of possible several dozen is making its own call to the database and it's just too slow. If I use code I can grab all the data in one operation and use relations in the DataBinding event (I believe) to select the data I want, but this is a bit cumbersome and I expect will cause trouble if I want to eventually use an ObjectDataSource. Incidentally, on a display-only page I use the XMLDataSource and it works great, but I need read-write access on the Edit page. Is there a good way to do what I'm trying to do?
When creating a parent child dimension I am not using the primary key of the underlying table. I define the key when I create the dimension. The parent/child relationship works fine but my measure aggregation does not work.
The dimension has a regular relation type to the measure and the primary key from the underlying dimension table is used in the relationship to join in the measure. Since I have not used the primary key in the dimension and have defined my own key the define relationship page warns me that I have selected a non-key granularity attribute and I must directly or indirectly relate all other attributes to it. When I attempt to relate the attributes on the dimension structure tab I receive errors that I have created an attribute loop.
The 3 OrgUnits with no parentID in one column (parentOU), then any OrgUnits who's parentID matches the orgunitid of the 3 OrgUnits in ParentOU in the next column (Child OU1), followed by any OrgUnits who's parentID matched the orgunitID of the OrgUnits in 'Child OU1' would be in the third column (Child OU2)
The dataset I'm working on contains ~700 rows and the OrgUnitNames can be anything, they aren't labelled like the example dataset with 1.1.1 and so on.
I have a problem with a reporting services 2005 report. The data source is OLEDB for OLAP 9.
The report contains all the members of a parent child dimension. An example of the implementation is defined in the post following the forum msdn: Http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=138549&SiteID=1.
The report works fine in web. The problem is when the report is exported as Excel, the groups disappeared and the entire dimension is ragged down.
Normally toggled groups in reporting services are exported to Excel with the appearance '+' or '-' on the left side of the sheet. This feature is very useful to hide / show lines.
It seems that with the implementation specified in the msdn post above, It is not possible to export correctly the report in Excel.
So my questions are:
Has someone already encountered this problem? Are there solutions with a different implementation?
I 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 a parent Child attribute in my dimension. I am currently displaying the correct ID value as the business wants. So now they can see the rollup of the ID(intOrgNodeID ) values.They would also like to see the same rollup of the Name (vcharOrgNodeName) for this ID.However they do not want it concatenated. They want to be able to see them separate.You cannot create two parent child attibutes in one dimension so not sure if there is some simple trick to make this work? It seems like there should be some simple trick for this.
My dimension table looks something like this intdimOrgNodeID int Key (surreget key) intOrgNodeID int (Actual ID) intDimParentOrgNodeID vcharOrgNodeName In the Propertys I have set this below. KeyColumns = tbldimOrgNode.intDimParentOrgNodeID NameColumn = tbldimOrgNode.intOrgNodeID
Given the sample data and query below, I would like to know if it is possible to have the outcome be a single row, with the ChildTypeId, c.StartDate, c.EndDate being contained in the parent row. So, the outcome I'm hoping for based on the data below for ParentId = 1 would be:
1 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 AA 2015-01-01 2015-03-31 BB 2016-01-01 2016-03-31 CC 2017-01-01 2017-03-31 DD 2017-01-01 2017-03-31
declare @parent table (Id int not null primary key, StartDate date, EndDate date) declare @child table (Id int not null primary key, ParentId int not null, ChildTypeId char(2) not null, StartDate date, EndDate date) insert @parent select 1, '1/1/2015', '12/31/2015' insert @child select 1, 1, 'AA', '1/1/2015', '3/31/2015'
I think I've seen a similar post on a blog or on the forums - but it seems like this should be possible -
I have an MDX query - that works fine in SQL Enterprise Manager, and has my dimension members on columns, and my measures on the rows. When I try the same query in Reporting Services, I get the error:
"The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. The first axis of the query should not have multiple hierarchies, nor should it reference any dimension other than the Measures dimension.. Parameter name: mdx (MDXQueryGenerator)"
Although it works when you pivot the view, I really need my data presented with the members on the columns and the measures on the rows. Another forum post mentioned using the SQL 9.0 driver, but I can't see this listed anywhere (the only one I see is the .NET framework Data Provider for Microsoft Analysis Services).
Here's what my query looks like -
SELECT { [Time].[Month].&[2006-09-01T00:00:00] , [Time].[Month].&[2006-10-01T00:00:00], [Time].[Month].&[2006-11-01T00:00:00], [Time].[Month].&[2006-12-01T00:00:00] } on COLUMNS, { [Measures].[Unique Users], [Measures].[UU Pct 1], [Measures].[UU Pct 2], } ON ROWS FROM [Cube]
When i add a dimension to the cube dimension without any relation in my dimension usage to any measure group my units are going down.However when i remove the dimension from the cube am getting the correct values.

hi, i have two tables i want the identity value of the parent table to be inserted into the chile table here is my code,but i don't know why it isn't working ! protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString; string pcontent = TextBox1.Text; string data = TextBox2.Text; addtopic(pcontent,connectionString); addfile(data, connectionString); } public void addtopic(string subject,string connstring) { using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connstring)) { SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO parent" + "(content)" + "Values(@content)", connection); command.Parameters.Add("@content", SqlDbType.Text).Value = subject; connection.Open(); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); } } public void addchild(string name, string connstring) { using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connstring)) {Guid id = Guid.NewGuid(); SqlCommand commandd = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO child" + "(parentid,data,uniqueid)" + "Values(@@IDENTITY,@data,@uid)", connection); commandd.Parameters.Add("@data", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50).Value = name; commandd.Parameters.Add("@uid", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier).Value = id;
I have a parent/child relationship in a relational database broken out like this: Table Name: categories[category_id] int (primary_key NOT NULL),[category_name] varchar(50),[parent_fk] int The parent references the category_id in the same table to create the parent/child relationships. I can get all the bottom level categories by doing this: select category_id, category, parent_fk from categories where category_id not in ( select parent_fk from categories) Each bottom-level category has a count attached to it. The problem I have is getting the counts rolled up for each parent of the bottom level. A parent could/will have multiple bottom-level categories (and counts). My sql is a little weak, could you help me out? I can utilize everying in SQL 2000 (stored proc, UDF, anything). Thanks!
I want to find all the child of a node in a tree . A child can have multiple parent i.e 2 can be place under multiple parent . The folling is the data:
This structure requires complicated queries (recursive call) to find out all the child of a root node, so I have added another field for the root id. Is this a good relational database design ? kindly suggest.
In our database we have a list of devices in a "Device" Table, eachhaving one or more IP's located in the "IP" Table linked through aforein key on the DeviceID Column.I would like to retrieve this information as SuchDeviceID IpAddress1 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.32 ...345etc.Is it possible to do that without using cursors? Through a query?
Just wondering if any of you implemented a (Kimball type 2) dimension structure, in which a ParentID column exists which points to a record from the same dimension table, using a SCD objects in SSIS. The ParentID column would have to be "Historical".
The challange here is that you would need to go through the table twice somehow, because if I would do a lookup of the parent record in the first run, I wouldn't be sure if I got the right parent record.
Hello all, I'm having a real hard time trying to figure this one out. I'm trying to create a sql query that selects both the parent name and it's children, but it's got to loop through all the record sets to populate a drop down as an end result.
I think I thought this out correctly: I have 2 tables
category relationship
tbl category cat_id //auto int cat_name // varchar
relationship r_id // auto int parent_id // int child_id // int
both the parent_id and child_id are associated with the cat_id in my category table I could have 1cars // this is parent 2 audi 3 bmw 4 chevy
Table data example
r_id parent_id child_id **************************** 1 1 15 2 1 16 3 1 17 4 2 55 5 2 56 etc... I want to select both the parent cat_name from category and also select the child cat_name where the parent_id = #
I can do it manaully like this select cat_name, cat_id, parent_id , child_id from category, relationships where child_id = cat_id and parent_id = 1
what is the best way to loop through all the parent ids to find child category? Could this be done in a stored procedure?
I am having problems creating a trigger in SQL Server? I have 2 tables (parent and child) with one to many relationship. When I save a record, one row gets inserted in the parent and one to many gets inserted in the child. The trigger is on the parent table and it is trying to select the number of new records just inserted in the child table that meets a certain criteria. Since the transaction hasn't been committed I can not select the number of records from the child. Does anyone know how to handle this? My manager insists this be done in a trigger. Thanks, James

with an unknown number of children for each parent.
Then I would like to be able to query against this view with something like this:
SELECT * FROM FamilyView Where Child2 = 'Peter'
I have no idea how to write the SQL for this View. Is it possible? Is this possible without using a cursor?
Below is my sample data of my table named "Groups"
Code: with Groups as ( select 1 as GroupId,'Oracle' as GroupName,0 as IdParentGroup union all select 2 as GroupId,'Microsoft' as GroupName,0 as IdParentGroup union all select 3 as GroupId,'IBM' as GroupName,0 as IdParentGroup union all select 4 as GroupId,'SunMicrosystem' as GroupName,1 as IdParentGroup union all select 5 as GroupId,'peoplesoft' as GroupName,1 as IdParentGroup union all select 6 as GroupId,'mysql' as GroupName,1 as IdParentGroup union all select 7 as GroupId,'Nokia' as GroupName,2 as IdParentGroup union all select 8 as GroupId,'EShop' as GroupName,2 as IdParentGroup union all select 9 as GroupId,'Meiosys' as GroupName,3 as IdParentGroup union all select 10 as GroupId,'UrbanCode' as GroupName,3 as IdParentGroup ) select * from groups;
Expected result:
Code: with ExpectedResult as ( select 'Oracle' as GroupName,'SunMicrosystem' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'peoplesoft' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'mysql' as SubGroup union all select 'Microsoft' as GroupName,'Nokia' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'EShop' as SubGroup union all select 'IBM' as GroupName,'Meiosys' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'UrbanCode' as SubGroup ) select * from ExpectedResult;
some sample query to how to achieve this parent-child has the same table.
