Analysis :: Show Grand Total When Using SSAS Tabular Role Security Permission
Oct 30, 2015
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 a requirement where I need to show the maximum value in grand totals but for the dimension members the same measure has to sum.
For ex: lets say I have a measure called Test and this is a base measure. The aggregation type set to this is SUM.
For this same measure the grand totals should not show the sum instead it should show the maximum value of the dimension members which is being analyzed across.
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.
I 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:
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?
In my cube I have defined a role where thet user can only browse certain dimention value. BUt in grand Total the result showing is for all the diemnsion values.
for example The user restricted to browse only Australia and UK Country , But in grand total its showing the SUM of all the country.
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.
I have a new 2014 SSAS installation. During VS2013 Tabular Project create I get an error Cannot connect, Reason The workspace database on server ***** is not running in tabular mode.I've changed msmdsrv.ini - DeploymentMode>2...The server wont start.
I 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 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.
I'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?
I 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.
I 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?
Can applications connect to SSAS Tabular mode cubes through ODBC drivers? 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).
I 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.
It seems simple but I'm not able to make it works. I've got a fact table with sites (DimImplantation) with allowed users (DimDroit) :
1 user can have access to many sites. I've tried these codes but only one worked and only in case where the user had only one site :
a) =DimImplantation[DimImplantation_ID]= LOOKUPVALUE (DimDroit[DimImplantation_ID]; DimDroit[Utilisateur];USERNAME() ) ==> worked for 1user with 1 site
b) =DimImplantation[DimImplantation_ID]= LOOKUPVALUE (DimDroit[DimImplantation_ID]; DimDroit[Utilisateur];USERNAME(); DimDroit[DimImplantation_ID];DimImplantation[DimImplantation_ID] ) ==> doesn't work and says 'not able to to identifie the value of DimImplantation[DimImplantation_ID] in the current context.
c) CALCULATE(VALUES(DimDroit[DimImplantation_ID], SUMMARIZE('DimDroit',DimDroit[Utilisateur]), DimDroit[Utilisateur]=USERNAME()) ==> version for SQL2012. I've had 'End of input reached'.
As you can see I have added only one contract (for the sake of simplicity). At any given date I want to calculate the running total for a contract (all contracts), but the aggregation must take the contract state into consideration.
You can see my expected result for queries 1 - 3. That means, with the actual state ('B') I want to aggregate all values regardless of their state in the past.
For query 2 the state is 'A' ... I hope you can follow.
Now my aim is to aggregate all contract states for any given date with the right value. The past states of each contract are not relevant. And of course future ones (with respect to the query date) shall also be irrelevant.
Maybe the solution is a combination of 'LastNonEmpty' and SUM/PERIODSTODATE ...
The all-level of dimensions doesn't show up in the PivotTable Field List? I have reports where I want to show one member of a dimensions compared to the total of the dimension (and not the total of the members shown). But I can't select the ALL-level. Is there any way to do this?
I am setting up some security requirements - the requirement is that team leaders get to view all teams within their division. What I would like it to do when they log onto their dashboard/ssrs report is that it defaults to the team leaders default team (they can still select from other teams if they require).If I can avoid I don't really want another parameter in the report for this.
In my cube I have an attribute under the people dimension (where teams and division also reside) called Fee_Earner_Effective_Flag and where this is set to Y this is their current team.
Under the Role properties security under the Fee_Earner_Effective_Flag attribute I have set the Default member to
When I then logon as the user and try to access the cube I get the following
Errors in the metadata manager. The '[People Primary Feeearner].[Fee_Earner_Effective_Flag].[Y]' security default member from the '{' attribute returns a result from a different hierarchy.
I have also tried setting the default member in the cube solution and then processing but then the cube failed.
I have a business requirement to build a tabular data model, where I need to mask information of other Agents from a given Agent but I still need to show the overall sales of the given product.
For eg: IF an Agent is in APAC region he should see APAC region sales and also should be able see the sales of the same product in other region without knowing region specific break down.
For Agent "Tom" in APAC region, the numbers will look like this APAC_Sales = 100,000 Other_Sales = 500,000
And if "John" is in NA region, then the number will look like this for him
NA_Sales = 200,000 Other_Sales = 400,000
I wanted to create "Roles" based on the Region, so all the agents belong to "APAC" region will have same view as Tom and "NA" region agents will have John's view.
Hello All, I've created a report that has a count of dates reports. Every company has at least one date report. I've group the report by company and did a count this works find. Now I want to SUM up this field and put it at the end of the report. I've used =sum(reportitems!textbox10.value) but it only works at the page footer. And only give me a grand total for that page. I want a grand total for the whole report. Is there a report footer???
I need to get the Grand Total of the results of this query. The query pulls the total customer quotes for each community in a management company and loads my DataGrid:
This query works fine for individual community totals"SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT vcName, COUNT(DISTINCT vcCustId) AS " & _ " Total FROM dbo.PropReportData WHERE cManagementCo = '" & Session("MgmtCo") & "' and " & _ " (vcEntryDate >= CONVERT(DATETIME, '" & StartDate & "', 102)) AND " & _ "(vcEntryDate <= CONVERT(DATETIME, '" & EndDate & " 11:59:59 PM" & "' , 102))GROUP BY vcName ORDER by vcName"
At first glance you would think that the following query would return the Grand Total for all communities in the management company:
Current Grand Total Query"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT vcCustID) As gTotal FROM PropReportData WHERE cManagementCo = '" & Session("MgmtCo") & "' AND vcEntryDate >= '" & Session ("StartDate") & "' AND vcEntryDate <= '" & Session("EndDate") & " 11:59:59 PM' "
But here's the problem. If there are multiple customer quotes created for different communites, then the customer(vcCustID) is only counted once in the Grand Total Query because I have to use DISTINCT, which of course only picks up one instance of the customer.
I am trying to calculate grand totals in the table footer area on a single table report. The report table has a grouping with a filter. I want the grand total to sum the visible grouping data but instead it sums the entire dataset. I've tried summing the textbox but RS does not allow that from the footer. I've tried specified the group for the scope but apparently RS scope works outward not inward in regards to groups. A simple example of my problem might be a list of bank accounts whose balance is overdrawn. In the report you want to show only the accounts whose balance has gone negative and all the transactions for those accounts. You can create a group on the account field and then a filter on the group to sum the transaction amount and filter out the accounts whose sum is not below zero. The grand total would supposedly sum the accounts whose balance is negative. Unfortunately the sum is on the entire dataset and therefore includes accounts with good balances. I'm sure some will suggest changing the SQL but that is not an option for me. These seems like a very basic operation for a report writer so I'm guessing there is some easy way to do this that has eluded me. Thanks for any help.
Im using Access and have created a query which adds up the grand totals of clients orders. However i want to be able to add up what each client has spent in total over any given time period. Basically in SQL logic terms:
take all order totals from same client and add together order totals to produce a grand client spend total.
how to add group subtotal and grand total in report? i try to add formula Sum(Field!Net_Weight.Value) in group footer and unable repeat footer on each page, it return same total on every pages. I hope to get subtotal on each page by group. the expected result would be like this:
