Error Grouping In Pivot Table With OLEDB For Analysis Servises 9.0
Mar 21, 2006
Hi all.
I moved my OLAP DB to SQL Server 2005, installed Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis Services 9.0 on the client and keep creating Pivot Tables in Excel until...
Grouping - when I try to group couple of members (or even 1 for that matter) I'm getting :
"Intrnal error: An unexpected error occurred (file"mdinfo.cpp", line 3335 function "MDInfo::Init")."
The only reference to mdinfo error I found in OLAP newsgroup where a guy was getting it trying to process the cube. My cube is processed (obviuosly). So, anybody knows what has changed with respect to grouping in PTS?

I am using
SSAS: version 2008
Excel: version 2013
I am connecting to SSAS cube from Excel and I have date dimension with 4 fields (I have others but I don't use it for this case). I created 4 fields in order to test all possible scenarios that I could think of:
DateKey:
  - Type: System.Integer
  - Value: yyyyMMdd
Date:
  - Type: System.DateTime
DateStr0:
  - Type: System.String
  - Value: dd/MM/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture)
  - Example: 01/11/2015 Â
DateStr1:
  - Type: System.String
  - Value: %d/%M/yyyy (note: I am not using US culture)Â
  - Example: 1/11/2015 Â
Filtering on date is working fine:
Initially, in excel, filtering on date was not working. But after changing dimensional type to time, and setting  DataType to Date, as mentioned in [URL] filter is working fine as you can see in the picture.Grouping on date is not working:
I have hierarchy in my Date dimension and I can group based on hierarchy, no problem. But user is used to pre-build grouping function of excel, and he wants to use that. Pre-build functions of Excel, Group and ungroup seems to be available as you can see in following picture:
But when user clicks 'Group', excel groups it as if it is a string, and that is the problem. User wants to group using pre-build grouping function available in Pivot table. I also find out that Power Pivot Table does not support this excel grouping functionality. And if I understood well, this pre-build grouping functionality of excel, needs to do calculation at run time, and that is not viable solution if you have millions of rows. So Power pivot table does not support pre-build grouping functionality of excel and hence we need to use dimension hierarchy to do the grouping. But I am not using Power Pivot table, I am using simple Pivot Table. So I expect grouping functionality to be working fine. Then I tried to do simple test. I created a simple data source in excel itself. And use it as source of my Pivot table. Then grouping is working fine. The only difference that I can see is (When double click the Measure value in Excel),For date values of my simple test, excel consider them as 'Date'.
For date values of my data coming from cube, excel consider them as 'General'
  2.1. But value here is same as it was in simple test.
  2.2. 'Date Filter' works just fine.
  2.3. If I just select this cell and unselect it, then excel change type to 'Date' though for that cell.Â
  2.4. I have created 4 different types of fields in my date dimension thinking that values of attribute of my dimension might be the problem, but excel consider 'General' for all of them.
  2.5 This value (that can be seen when double clicking on measure) comes from 'Name Column' of the attribute. And the DataType defined is WChar. And I thought that might be the reason of issue. And I changed it to 'Date'. But SSAS does not allow it to change to 'Date' giving error : The 'Date' data type is not allowed for the 'NameColumn' property; 'WChar' should be used.
So, I don't know, what is the puzzle piece that I am missing.
1. Date filter works, group does not work
2. Excel consider it as 'General' string.
3. SSAS does not allow to change 'NameColumn' to Date.

I have a query
DECLARE @DynamicPivotQuery AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @ColumnName AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
--Get distinct values of the PIVOT Column
SELECT @ColumnName= ISNULL(@ColumnName + ',','')
+ QUOTENAME(name)

and so on.
I've tried putting my group by everywhere but it's not working. I'm missing something but what?

Hi all,
In MyDatabase, I have a TABLE dbo.LabData created by the following SQLQuery.sql:
USE MyDatabase
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.LabResults

Chloroform 1.00 1.00 1.00 0.76
Methylene Chloride 1.00 1.00 1.00 0.51
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I write the following SQLQuery.sql code for creating a Pivot Table from the Table dbo.LabData by using the PIVOT operator:
USE MyDatabase
GO
USE TABLE dbo.LabData
GO
SELECT AnalyteName, [1] AS MW2, AS MW6S, [11] AS MW7, [16] AS TripBlank
FROM
(SELECT SampleName, AnalyteName, Concentration
FROM dbo.LabData) p
PIVOT
(
SUM (Concentration)
FOR AnalyteName IN ([1], , [11], [16])
) AS pvt
ORDER BY SampleName
GO
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I executed the above-mentioned code and I got the following error messages:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'TABLE'.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'AnalyteName'.
I do not know what is wrong in the code statements of my SQLQuery.sql. Please help and advise me how to make it right and work for me.
Thanks in advance,

Wonder if you could help me ?
I have set up a cube running under MSSQL Server 2000 Analysis services and have created reports in Excel 2002 using pivot tables and linking into the cube as an external data source.
The pivottable works fine and I can slice / dice as usual, the only thing that doesnt work is the drill through into AS. I receive and error message saying "Cannot show detail data for that selection...".
Now I know that the drill through works, as when I create a report using the Analsyis Services Excel Add Inthe drill through works fine, its just how do I get it working using the pivot tables ?
fyi - the reason I dont want to use the Analsyis Services Excel Add In for all the reports is because I have to deploy this to XX number of users, who wont have admin rights on their machines etc etc....
Is there any VB that I could use to perform this drill through and return the results.....or easier ??
Thanks very much

We couldn't find a way to show row/column members in the order as in the database. The Pivot table always applies alphabetical sorting:Â
Is there really no way to show items as per database order?

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.

Hi,
I just read on web that we can not use grouping columns in a variable when using PIVOT operator. For example like,
USE AdventureWorks
GO
SELECT VendorID, [164] AS Emp1, [198] AS Emp2, [223] AS Emp3, [231] AS Emp4, [233] AS Emp5
FROM
(SELECT PurchaseOrderID, EmployeeID, VendorID
FROM Purchasing.PurchaseOrderHeader) p
PIVOT
(
COUNT (PurchaseOrderID)
FOR EmployeeID IN
( [164], [198], [223], [231], [233] ) // cannot put these in a variable like @Col
) AS pvt
ORDER BY VendorID;
Though it can be achieved using when making the query using dynamic sql. If some can make it clear why it is possible using dynamic sql and not with the above code.
Regards,

I have a dataset where I want to find the first dimension member (head, item(0), ...) for each Quarter grouping on my rows.
Example:
2015 Q1 --> Segment A+
2015 Q2 --> Segment B
2015 Q2 --> Segment /
In this case, I want for 2015 Q2 to show "/" only. I managed to get these results by using a calculated member where I take item(0) and than on my rows I group on my Quarter. However, I would like this in my rows using the dimension itself [point of sale].[Segment].[Segment].
I cannot manage to get this done. I either get only 2015 Q2 and not 2015 Q1 output or I get 2015 Q1 and 2015 Q2 but both "B".
Below is my current query that is working when using a calculated member. But I want to have it directly done on the SELECT ON ROWS using the [Stratum history].[Stratum].
[Stratum]
MEMBER [Measures].[Latest stratum per quarter] AS
NonEmpty(
[Stratum history].[Stratum].[Stratum]
,[Measures].[Stratum sales average]
).Item(0).Name
, NON_EMPTY_BEHAVIOR = [Measures].[Stratum sales average]
On my rows :
[Bonus calendar].[Calendar - Quarter].[Bonus quarte]
...
I tried also to use Rank and Rownumber as a workaround because it works on a measure, but the rownumber is not using the group by on the calendar!
MEMBER [Measures].[Rank] AS
Iif(
IsEmpty([Measures].[YTD Sales]),Null,
RANK(
Axis(1).Item(0).Item(
Axis(1).Item(0).Count-1

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.

Can I force the following measure to be visible for all rows in a pivot table?
Sales Special Visibility:=IF(

  ;IF(
    VALUES(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]) = "Sales"
    ;CALCULATE([Sales];ALL(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]))
    ;[Sales]
  )
  ;BLANK()
)
FYI, I also have other measures as well in the pivot table that I don't want to affect.

I have a simple pivot table (screenshot below) that has two variables on it: one for entry year and another for 6 month time intervals. I have very simple DAX functions that count rows to determine the population N (denominator), the number of records in the time intervals (numerator) and the simple percent of those two numbers.
The problem that I am having is that the function for the population N is not overriding the time interval on the pivot table when I use an ALL function to do so. I use ALL in other very simple pivot tables to do the same thing and it works fine.
The formula for all three are below, but the one that is the issue is the population N formula. Why ALL would not work, any other way to override the time period variable on the pivot table.
Population N (denominator):
=CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(analyticJudConsist),ALL(analyticJudConsist[CurrentTimeInCare1]))
Records in time interval (numerator):
=COUNTROWS(analyticJudConsist)
Percent:
=[countrows]/[denominatorCare]

How can I apply "Min" formula under a "new measure" (calculated field) within a pivot table under Power pivot 2010?Can see that neither does it allow me to apply "min" formula directly "formula box" nor could find any other option.Intent formula: "=Min(1,sum(a:b))" this isn't allowed so all I can do is "=sum(a:b)".

I have simple pivot table (below screenshot with info redacted) that displays a population number ("N" below), this is the denominator, a cumulative numerator number (below "#") and a simple cumulative percent that just divides the numerator by the denominator. It cumulates from top to bottom. The numerator and percent are cumulative using the below functions. There are two problems with the numerator and percent:
1. When there is not a number for the numerator, there is no value displayed for both the numerator and the percent..There should be a zero displayed for both values.
2. When there has been a prior number for the numerator and percent (for a prior month interval) but there is no number for the numerator in the current month interval, the prior month number and percent are not displayed in the current month interval--see the 3rd yellow line, this should display "3" and "16.7%" from the second yellow line.Here is the formula for the numerator:
=CALCULATE(count(s1Perm1[entity_id]),FILTER(ALL(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory]),s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory] <= MAX(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory])))
Here is the formula for the percent:
=(CALCULATE(countrows(s1Perm1),FILTER(ALL(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory]),s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory] <= MAX(s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory]))))/(CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(s1Perm1),ALL(s1Perm1[Exit],s1Perm1[ExitMonthCategory])))

I have a problem with calculating discount in PowerPivot analysis. I have
dCalendar , dDiscount, fSalesBook .
dDiscount columns:
DiscKey, StartDate, EndDate, Product, DiscountName, DiscountPercent
fSalebook columns:
OrderDate, Product, Qty, Sales, Discount
dCalendar columns:
Date, Holiday, MonthNo, MonthName, QuarterNo, QrtName, Year.
The problem (at least I feel) is I defined some dates in the Startdate and Enddate for a particular year. But these discounts should apply for all of the years in my fSalesBook, not just for that year in the dDiscount table.
So in essence, when you calculate discount for a product in fSalesBook you should consider only the month and day of the transaction, if the sale is in between the discount dates.
I have the following relationships.
Table [Column] ------->Table [Column]
fSalesBook[OrderDate] -----> dCalendar[Date]
I am not sure how to relate the dDiscount table with the dCalendar table and not sure even there is a need to relate them to calculate Row level discount in fSalesBook. You can change the relations/model if there is need be.
PS: One more clause, Sometimes I offer discount only for a particular product in that Discount season, that's why there is a column for Product in the dDiscount table.
What should be my DAX formula to calculate Row level discount in fSalesBook?
Here is the link for the sample workbook.

I have data in my Powerpivot window which was generated by a sql query. This data includes a field named 'Cost' and every row shows a value for 'Cost' greater than zero. The problem is that when I display this data in the pivot table all entries for Cost display as $0. At first I thought that maybe Cost was set to a bogus data type (such as 'text) but it is set to ''Decimal Number' so that's not the problem.Â
What is happening and how do I fix it so that my pivot table reflects the values for 'Cost'?

I am using excel 2010 and creating pivot table from Power Pivot. I created a pivot table with department slicers. All is good, the problem I am having is whilst in an unfiltered position (ALL) of the slicers (departments) I get 200 pages, now when I click on a given department with say 10 pages, I still get the same 200 pages with the first 10 pages showing the data from the clicked department and 190 blank pages.
All I want is to get a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) of what is on the screen as my print, but I am getting extra blank pages right after the data. Â How do I resolve this.
Below are the steps I go thru to printÂ
1. Select slicers in unfiltered position (ALL)
2. Select entire pivot table
3. Select Page layout and select print area.
4. Save
5. Click on Print Preview to preview the print
6. Click on a given department in the slicer and repeat item 5, but this gives me blank pages after the data.
Do I need any other step?Â

I am using the pivot task to to a pivot of YTD-Values and after that I use derived columns to calculate month values and do a unpivot then.
All worked fine, but now I get this error message:
[ytd_pivot [123]] Error: Duplicate pivot key value "6".
The settings in the advanced editor seem to be correct (no duplicate pivot key value) and I am extracting the data from the source sorted by month.
Could it be a problem that I use all pivot columns (month 1 to 12) in the derived colum transformation and they aren´t available at this moment while data extracting is still going on?
any hints?
Cheers

I have, a SSAS 2012 tabular instance with SP2, there is a database on the instance with a read role with everyone assigned permissions. When configuring the Power BI analysis services connector, at the point where you enter Friendly Name, Description and Friendly error message, when you click next I receive the error "The remote server returned an error (403)." I've tested connecting to the database from Excel on a desktop and connect fine.I don't use a "onmicrosoft" account so don't have that problem to deal with.
We use Power BI Pro with our Office 365. As far as I can tell that part is working ok as I pass that stage of the configuration with a message saying connected to Power BI.The connector is installed on the same server as tabular services, its a Win2012 Standard server. The tabular instance is running a domain account that is the admin account for the instance (this is a dev environment) that account is what I've used in the connector configuration. It's also a local admin account. There is no gateway installed on the server.

I have a pivot table that connects to our data warehouse via a PowerPivot connection. Â The data contains a bunch of comment fields that are each between 250 and 500 characters. Â I've set the columns in this pivot table to have the 'Wrap Text' set to true so that the user experience is better, and they can view these comment fields more clearly.
However, whenever I refresh the data, the text wrapping un-sets itself. Â Interestingly, the 'Wrap Text' setting is still enabled, but I have to go and click it, then click it again to actually wrap the text. Â This is very burdensome on the user, and degrading the experience.
Any way to make this text wrapping stick so that I don't have to re-set it every time I refresh the data?

I have a SSIS package that reads data from a dump table, runs a custom script that takes date data and converts it to the correct format or nulls and formats amt fields to currency, then inserts it to a new table. The new table redirects insert errors. This process worked fine until about 3 weeks ago. I am processing just under 6 million rows, with 460,000 or so insert errors that did give error column and code.
Now, I am getting 1.5 million errors. and nothing has changed, to my knowledge. I receive the following information.
Error Code -1071607685 Error Column 0 Error Desc No status is available.
The only thing I can find for the above error code is
DTS_E_OLEDBDESTINATIONADAPTERSTATIC_UNAVAILABLE
To add to the confusion, I can not see any errors in the data written to the error table. It appears that after a certain point is reached in the processing, everything, or most records, error out.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I am relatively new to SQL-Server. I was working in a company that used SS2005. Now I am with a company and client where SS2K is my only option. I know SS2005 had Analysis Services which allowed building hypercubes but I never got the chance to learn about it or use it. I am not that familiar with what SS2K has.
I have no access to any OLAP tools. I have MS-Access and MS-Excel. My SQL-Server database has to crunch a table with thousands of rows.
Having worked with MS-Access and MS-Excel for a long time, I know how powerful creating a pivot table is. I heard that SQL2005 had a T-SQL PIVOT function but never had the opportunity to use it.
Know I have the need to do this in SQL2000.
I have a lot of data so the method shown in BOL for cross-tab won't help me. The client changes the "column" and "header" categories on a regular basis, so I need something that will allow me to NOT hard code them but choose them dynamically like one would do in a hypercube.
I have more than 5 categories for "row headers". I have currency for the data to aggregate. I have "pay periods" (26 of them) for my "column" headers, but not all 26 will be present until Dec 31, so that part has to be dynamic.
Question:
Is there any feature in the standard S2K that allows one to create anything like a pivot table without massive coding (T-SQL function or technique or something like a hypercube ability)?
Can you point me to something on the web that would explain how to get started?
Many thanks ahead of time from a newbie!

Given a model in Power Pivot with a number of KPIs that are hidden with the 'hide from client tools' option. After restoring the model in SSAS and connecting to the model from Excel, the KPIs are visible under a separate category/table "KPIs".
Other hidden items in the model like columns and measures remain invisible.
Is this normal behavior and what can I do about this?

I have a report where in I want to show each record on a separate page.
So, to achieve that I took a single cell from table control, expanded it and used all the controls in that single cell. This looks nice so far.
Now, I also have to show a sub grid on each record. So I took a table control and added on the same single cell and tried to add a parent group to the table row.
When I preview, it throws this error.
"The tablix has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members."
What am I doing wrong? How can I achieve table grouping inside a table cell?

I don't know if it's a local issue but I can't use temp table or table variable in a PP query (so not in a stored procedure).
Environment: W7 enterprise desktop 32 + Office 2012 32 + PowerPivot 2012 32
Simple example:
   declare @tTable(col1 int)
   insert into @tTable(col1) values (1)
   select * from @tTable
Works perfectly in SQL Server Management Studio and the database connection is OK to as I may generate PP table using complex (or simple) queries without difficulty.
But when trying to get this same result in a PP table I get an error, idem when replacing table variable by a temporary table.
Message: OLE DB or ODBC error. .... The current operation was cancelled because another operation the the transaction failed.
