I am Srinivas working on SSAS 2005. I am not able to create or drop dimension members. I need to drop and create all members in one dimension before cube processing, as the columns are coming dynamically.
E.g. ALTER CUBE [Reporting] DROP DIMENSION MEMBER [Tbl Analysis Test].[Name]
Here cube is [Reporting] , dimension is [Tbl Analysis Test] and member is [Name].
Its giving the following error " Parsing the query ... Query (1, 46) The member '[Name]' was not found in the cube when the string, [Tbl Analysis Test].[Name], was parsed. Parsing complete"
Please look into this issue, advice me what do I do ASAP.

I'm developing a report with Samsung products sales compared to other producers' sales.
I have the following dimensions:
Dim Period (date-time) Dim Region (region where the products are sold) Dim Product Group (notebooks, CRT,...) Dim Producer (Samsung, LG, ..., Other producers)
Report should contain Samsung sales on the first row, other companies (LG, Dell,...) sales on subsequent rows and "Other producers" sales on the last row, i.e.:
Please note, Dim Producers may be enalrged, so I can't just enumerate all Dim Producer members in the query.
I tried to use field ProducerType, which I set to 1 for Samsung, 2 for other companies (LG, Dell, ...) and 3 for "Other producers", after that I ordered by this field, however it didn't position producers as I expected.
if I create a dimension from fact table, then it only has members which appeared in fact table. but if I create dimension from dimension table, then it shows all members, even those with no data. how can I show only those with existing data in member list?
Argent Need to split olap dimension members into three different dimension members example account dimension member = 11111200900 account_num.member = 11111 item_num.member = 200 sub_item = 900
I created some calculated members for a dimension. They are set to be visible and when i connect to the cube itself I can see them with both Excel and ProClarity as clients. I added them to a couple perspectives (by checking their boxes down at the bottom of the Calculations list) and deployed. There were no errors or issues. However from both Excel and ProClarity I do not see the calculated members of the dimension.
There are some 55 members in the arrival year level of the time dimension (1995 - 2055). I am trying to find a way to restrict the number of years returned by this mdx query to the current year - 5. Any help will be appreciated.
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS '[TIME DIMENSION].[ARRIVAL YEAR].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION' MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS '[TIME DIMENSION].[ARRIVAL YEAR].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME' MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS '[TIME DIMENSION].[ARRIVAL YEAR].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL' SELECT { [Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel] } ON COLUMNS, [TIME DIMENSION].[ARRIVAL YEAR].allmembers ON ROWS FROM [TOURISM CUBE]
I've got a dimension built from a fact (whatever that's called?) ... it's a date interval field, i.e. 0-5 weeks, 6-10 weeks 11+ weeks. How do I sort these members in the respective order? Looks like this currently:
The problem lies in the fact that I don't have any secondary attributes to order it by, i.e. it's not a physical dimension where I can use a key for the 3 members. I was hoping I wouldn't need to create a separate dimension to get round this.
We have a date dimension which spans till 2099 and there are future projection numbers (under measures). I want to limit the data for Future projections only to 5 years from today by default. Is there a way to do this with in the cube. I understand that this can be done using MDX but since we use excel to view the data from the cube it needs to be controlled with in the cube.
Anybody who knows how inferred members update function in slowly changing dimension? I came across this when I started using some of the functions of the Slowly changing dimension object.
A very basic MDX question. Using the following from AdventureWorks as an example:
Code Snippet WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Big Cities] AS ( [Geography].[City].&[New York]&[NY] , [Measures].[Internet Order Count] ) SELECT [Measures].[Big Cities] ON COLUMNS , [Customer].[Total Children].Children ON ROWS FROM [Adventure Works]
How would I re-write the [Measures].[Big Cities] calculated member so it included both [Geography].[City].&[New York]&[NY] and [Geography].[City].&[Los Angeles]&[CA]? Assuming there is no logical connection between these members, and that they are non-contiguous. Also, in my real example, I cannot move [Measures].[Internet Order Count] to the WHERE clause, it must remain within the calculated member.
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]
I'm using a SQL 2008 database on a SQL 2012 hosted server. I have an autoincrement ID for locations that my members create. These go up by 1.... eg. 9400, 9401, 9402.
Tonight a member attempted to make a new location and the ID went from 9407, 9408 and JUMPED to 10408. Any subsequent creations only continue from 10408 onwards.
What happened here? 9409 to 10407 just aren't available.
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.
Analysis manager won’t let me create dimension unless fact table filed has value init. Other words, how do I create MT dimension(dimension without member)
I have a fact table which contains the transaction date, ProductID, QTySold, TotalSaleAmount, etc...
Since I am new to OLAP therefore I need help to now create the table for TIME on which I will be basing my time dimension... I have read a few articles and have gathered that at the end of the exercise my fact table should have a 'timeid' column which will be linked to the same column in the table being used for the time dimension...
I have gone through the tutorial of MS-Analysis Service and FoodMart example have some idea about what he structure of this table will be.
My questions are:
1. I need guidance on how to create the table for time. One option is to just copy the table used in the Foodmart example but thought that might work but my concept will not be clear
2. The structure of the table to be used for time dimension is quite clear (i think this part is easy). What I want to understand is that how do i POPULATE this table which data? Can some one provide me with scripts, SPs, or whatever to do this.... This is the area where I am lost...
3. How will I enter the "TheDate" column in my fact table and link it with my table for time dimension...
Looking forward to someone's help.
BTW, I would like to share a very good article which i recently found in one of the newsgroups. Some of you might like appreciate it too: http://www.sqljunkies.com/Article/D1E44392-592C-40DB-B80D-F20D60951395.scuk
some of our Drill down has many values and we would like to display only top 10 ... I know how to create CALCULATEDMEMBER for the cube ..but that becomes a measure and will NOT be in the drill down so,
how to create Top 10 for Raw Url
Drill Down Groups Top 10 Urls ( this has 10000 values€¦€¦.. can we just display top 10 here? Right now the report never comes back because of the count€¦ or if there is a better way let me know
I can manipulate this in a pivot table for reporting however I need this to be a table for reporting by filterable searchable information. What can I do short of defining each field with case logic, or union queries.
Just found that I am not able to ignore the name column property for role-palying dimension even though I only select one of the key columns for this dimension in the mining structure where the role-playing dimension is used? E.g I have a fact table (which is the case table for the mining structure) which is related to the role-playing date dimension. The schema is as following:
Dim_event_day_time_key
Dim_carrier_day_time_key
Dim_domain_day_time_key
.....................................
and other attibutes in the fact table.
When I dragged the 'hours' attribute from the dim_day_time table to the mining structure, if I left the key columns of 'Hours' as the above 3 columns, then I have to select a name column, by then I dont have a name column in the dimension table yet. Therefore I want to jsut select one key column as the key of that role-playing dimension in the mining structure, but then I am not able to ignore the 'name column' property as it still always asks me to select the 'name column' for that.
Therefore my question is: we are not allowed to select only one key columns in the mining structure for the role-playing dimension? And we will have to always go to the data source view to create a named calculation as the new column for the role-playing dimension?
Hope my question is clear for your advices and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
Hi I am wana to know why we every time drop the procedure and again create it as below...will that impact on performance or compilation of SP???
Use Northwind GO IF OBJECT_ID('dbo.ListCustomersByCity') IS NOT NULL DROP PROC dbo.ListCustomersByCity GO CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.ListCustomersByCity @Country nvarchar(30)='%' AS SELECT City, COUNT(*) AS NumberOfCustomers FROM Customers WHERE Country LIKE @Country GROUP BY City GO
I want to create a table that has a datetime column, data type=datetime and I want the date to start form 01/01/2004 00:00:00 to 01/01/2008 00:00:00 the increment will be by minute like
01/01/2004 00:01:00
01/01/2004 00:02:00
01/01/2004 00:03:00 and so on up to 01/01/2008 00:00:00
I will use this time dimension in bussiness objects.
I had a question and did not obtain an answer. So I am trying to rephrase and ask again, in case I was not clear the first time.
When we drop and recreate a table, do we always have to recompile the stored procedures that reference the table? Or is only under certain scenarios that we need to do so- like if an index on the table is changed Please let me know Thanks in advance Kiran
I have to run a Big Sproc for make a lot of updates and insert. because trigger it take to many time. I can drop the trigger before the procedure and recreate it after, but I wondered whether there existed of other solution?
Can I deactive the trigger? I'm affraid too got two copie of code for the trigger that why I dont really like the Drop-Create solution...
I have 2 questions: 1. How can I drop /remove a complete db from MSDE desktop engine? 2. After exporting my db onto MSDE server and get connected those db tables in FE (adp), how can I create a new table in the same back end db?
I know these are basic questions but since I am new to MSDE I hope the forum would bear me.
Hi, How can i create and drop table in MS SQL Server 2000 via VB6? I think I should use ADOX object, but I don't know exactly how.... The following code uses ADO connection object and returns with runtime error "incorrect syntax near AS":
Dim db as ADODB.Connection '... open connection to database
Dim strCmd As String
strCmd = "CREATE TABLE tmp_tbl AS SELECT * FROM tbl"
Hi, all, I want to re-create an index on a production table. I got an error 644 "could not find index entry...". The DBCC CHECKDB and CHECKTABLE gave me this:
Server: Msg 8928, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Object ID 37575172, index ID 6: Page (1:939782) could not be processed. See other errors for details. Server: Msg 8939, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Table error: Object ID 37575172, index ID 6, page (1:939782). Test (*(((int*) &m_reservedB) + i) == 0) failed. Values are 7 and 36. DBCC results for 'Mfg_DFSFNSF'. There are 1142314 rows in 326143 pages for object 'Mfg_DFSFNSF'. CHECKTABLE found 0 allocation errors and 2 consistency errors in table 'Mfg_DFSFNSF' (object ID 37575172).
The table script for the index is like this:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX [Mfg_ITMDH_MbrIdx] ON [dbo].[Mfg_DFSFNSF]([_ITMDH_OwnRow], [_ITMDH_MbrKey], [RECTYPE]) WITH FILLFACTOR = 70 ON [PRIMARY]
My question is that can I drop it and run above create it to fix the problem in live mode?
I know the other option will be: DBCC CHECKTABLE (FSDBMR.dbo.Mfg_DFSFNSF, repair_allow_data_loss) But that has to put the db under single user mode.
The above increments by 1 day which is defined in the 1st argument of the #duration. My question is how can I dynamically change the value of this 1st argument such that its the number of days in the current month hence it will increment to only return the 1st date in the Month e.g
1/1/2000 1/2/2000 1/3/2000 etc..
I prefer to use an elegant approach if possible, the alternative would be return all dates, create a custom column from these dates which returns the month date - delete the dates column - get a distinct list of the month dates.
