View 8 RepliesI have a separate date dimension marked as Date table in Tabular Model and having proper relationship with another table(e.g SalesTable) with column of date type. But still time intelligence functions are not working. I am using the date column from other table (e.g SalesTable) in the formula. What exactly going wrong in our tabular model.

(so I can use measure security on calculations

SQL Server Data Tools within VS 2010 Shell.2012 SASS in Tabular Mode.I've created a Measure and KPI in my fact table. I've created a perspective named "Summary" When selecting the fields and measures for display in the perspective, the measure is available, but not the KPI (target, status, etc.). When Analyzing in Excel with the Summary perspective, the KPI is not available in the field list. When analyzing in Excel with the (default) perspective, the KPI is available.As far as I can tell, there is no way to select a KPI within the perspective window.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working with SSAS Tabular. I have a stand alone table with 60 columns and contains 120K records. Table size is 250MB. And trying to build a tabular report out of it and it is taking longer and throwing exception, screenshot attached.
It might be cross-join issues, as workaround created a dummy measure and using in report. But it working for 10-20 k records and beyond throwing same exception. I have 8 GB RAM and 100 GB free disk space.

i would like to pose a question, when a user do a login in SSRS server,is it possible to pass the username to SSAS tabular, to implement security? I've tested using USERNAME() creating a role that relates USERNAME() with a dim user username, but now i need to implement it with the username used in SSRS server.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Tabular data model and I'm returning a measure that counts employees (each row is an employee) and then a calculated column in the model that gets SeniorityInMonths.
So if an employee was hired exactly 1 year ago, they would have 12 in this column.
I want to group these into bins, but the Group option is grayed out.
I get the following error while processing a SSAS tabular model (2014) on a new server.The SSAS service on this server is running under a login which has access to the SQL server data sources. I tried changing the provider to OLEDB from SQLCLNI11 in the connection string but that doesn't work too. The error message isn't useful to debug further.
The cube processing succeeds on a different server. I scripted out the cube DB and ran it on the new server and am trying to process full but it fails with the following error.

We are working on implementing DAX formula(s) on our tabular model (SSAS 2012). When we tried to deploy the solution, deployment wizard giving us then below error:The given key was not present in the dictionary...I checked all the formula(s) that we recently implemented and all looks fine.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a Tabular model at my job since the users have a requirement to query against a live data source. I've been looking online for clients that issue DAX as opposed to MDX to the model, but besides SSRS and Power View, I could not find anything else. Any other client side interfaces to a DirectQuery Tabular model?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a tabular model with VS 2013 Ultimate. I deployed the model several times and everything works great with Power Pivot.
One of the dimension tables, "Age", has an integer field that is null. I updated that column in SSMS to have values, processed the table in VS and the "Age" column now has integer values.
I deployed the model again, connected with Power Pivot, and the "Age" column still has not data. I refreshed the Excel spreadsheet several times, started a new one, deployed several times and there is still not data in the "Age" column even though it clearly exists in VS.
I opened SSMS on the Analysis Service and queried the table in question and it also shows no data in the Age column even though it is in the data table and the VS model.
I can't find anything different about this column than others that contain data. How can this be happening?
Is it possible to install 2 SSAS instance (one default and one named) and have them access a single sql server instance (default) all on the same server?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two different roles, each one with a dax filter. One is for filtering users that access by Excel, and other for filtering users that access by Reporting Services, respectively:
=CONTAINS(FILTER(V_FILTRO_C;V_FILTRO_C[IDPerfilGrupo]<>7);V_FILTRO_C[iCursoCod];[SK_CURSO];V_D05_DIM_UTIL[DSC_LOGIN_USER];RIGHT(USERNAME();LEN(USERNAME())-SEARCH("";USERNAME())))
=CONTAINS(FILTER(V_FILTRO_C;V_FILTRO_C[IDPerfilGrupo]<>7);V_FILTRO_C[iCursoCod];[SK_CURSO];V_FILTRO_C[IDUtilizador];VALUE(CUSTOMDATA()))
To create only one role that serves Excel and Reporting Services users, is it viable to use only the || (OR) operator?, is there any other regard i should take?
If user want to see the grand total for a measure with include all members, even though the user has limited access for that member, so how we can do using DAX?For example, let’s say the total revenue for all the divisions in a cube is $15,000. You create a role called “Division A”, and set it up so members of that role can only see the revenue for Division A, which totals $3,000. If you use a front-end tool like Excel to access the cube and use the division hierarchy to see the total revenue, you will see the revenue of $3000 for Division A, but also want to see the Grand Total for the revenue as $15,000How we can achieve above scenerio in tabular model (DAX).

I have been asked the question specifically regarding SAS, and I can see (for example) SAS Enterprise Guide has the ability to connect to sources via ODBC, so I now need to find out if there are such things as ODBC divers for SSAS (specifically Tabular).
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a very small SSAS database with around 35 Mb. I opened it on Excel 32 bits and started dragging fields to a pivot table and it started failing with memory errors. The behavior on the SSAS server was that memory started growing very fast until 8 GB (vm memory total) and then the error is reported in excel.
What might be the issue in such a small database? I would understand in a big database, but not on this one.
I have 5 cubes, and hierachy defined for all cubes. for example:geography database with 5 continents as cubes and contries as dimensions.Now when i am doing security restrictions on my dimension ex: In USA dimension if i want only to give access to texas region then i should be able to see only texas cities. But i cansee all the states under USA even after selecting only Texas region under Dimension data tab inside ROles section in SSMS.I have tried security at database ,cube level as well as dimension level.But still not working.is that because of some wrong design of cubes or something related to database design.? I am not able to undersand that except roles everything in my cubes or datawarehouse is working fine without and defect in data.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to compute average of Sales amount for 10 days and I am having an issue when using LAG function. Since weekends fall in between working days my LAG (10) function is also including weekends and hence I am not able to get the correct average.
For ex: D1 - 10 , D2 - 20, D3 - 30, D4 - 50, D5 - 10, D6 - W, D7 - W, D8-10, D9 - 20, D10 -30, D11 - 10, D12 - 40, D13 - W, D14 - W
I am using a sample script
SUM([Time].[Hierarchy].CurrentMEMBER : Time.[Hierarchy].Currentmember.Lag(9), [Measures].[Sales Amount])/10
When I use this and When my current member is D12 Then I am getting the value as 200/10 = 20 (from D12 to D3).
However ideally it should be 230/10 =23 (from D12 to D1) and lag should exclude D6 and D7 as it is a weekend.
I also have a working day flag in my time dimensions which says 0 for non working days and 1 for working days.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to implement some powerview report in excel 2013 itself (not in sharepoint).
I have implemented a SSAS tabular model and deployed to server. Now my aim is to load this tables in the SSAS tabular database into powerpivot so that i can use this data for creating powerview reports. However when i tried to import data from SSAS, it asks database and MDX query. My requirement is to load the dimension and fact tables to power pivot as it is.
We have an Excel PowerPivot model that we are trying to move to SSAS Tabular. The model is complex and has over 300 measures. To group these in Excel, we pasted in dummy tables and defined the measures in logical groupings. Now when we are migrating to SSAS, we have to delete the pasted tables --that have ALL of the measures, in order for the import to work successfully.
How to migrate the model? We have a nice report of all of the measures from DAX Studio, but I am not looking forward to manually re-entering 300 measures through the user interface. Is there any way to define measures in batch? Or is there a way to change the pasted table to a file so the import will work? Will the import work in SSAS 2016?
The thing is I can´t make update powerpivot, it raises a generic error. Tried to import into ssas tabular and worked fine.
Is there any way to get a better error detail or debug it someway?
I have a cube that tracks sales by sales rep. In this cube, I have dimensions for SalesRep, Product, and Region hierarchies. I also have a Time dimension that provides Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Fiscal Month, and Calendar Date; the Time dimension also has an attribute showing the first day of the year for any given date (our fiscal year starts on a different date every year).
I have a report that passes StartDate and EndDate parameters back to the cube, and provides sales numbers by Rep, Product, and Region for that given date range. What I would also like is a field that provides YTD sales through the EndDate parameter.
This is a piece of cake for me to implement against the SQL tables, but I am pulling my hair out trying to determine the best way to implement with a cube. Does anyone have any suggestions?
TIA

I have a ssas tabular model as a data source in a .pbix-file. I have uploaded the .pbix-file to Power BI Services and it works fine as long as my visual studio project is open.

Any help is appreciated.
I have been living in the T-SQL world for years, and am working on my first Tabular model.
I have a fact table that I would like to use for many reports. My idea is that I would use Perspectives in the tabular model to pull in the columns that I need for each purpose. In some cases, I also need to filter out some rows. Is there a way to filter perspectives? The only solution I am coming up with is to create views in SQL Server and import the fact table multiple times for each purpose. That doesn't seem very efficient.
My boss and I attended the SQL conference in Vegas a few years ago. He remembers a session on tabular where the presenter said when the underlying table that tabular is built on changes, it automatically refreshes the tabular db. Now that we're working on a tabular project I'm looking around for this information and don't find anything like that happens. From what I can see, the refresh either has to be scheduled from a task, or manually refreshed by right-clicking the db and selecting "process db". He said the session presenter was a Microsoft Program Manager too. Is there any truth to what he remembers?

According to the book "Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services - The BISM Tabular Model" (pages 276 and 277) the following DAX query should work. However, I'll get a rank of 1 returned for every product name. My impression is that ALL doesn't block the context transition for product name. Because there is nothing in the errata, I might do something wrong!? The second query is just a workaround giving the correct result.

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.
