Base unit of measure values not loading into the cube.

Question

HI Xperts,
i have created a generic data source and in that i took unit as base_uom and one quantity keyfigure and in my cube i have taken 0base_uom and a quantity key figure infoobject.
in transformation i mapped the  base_uom(source) to 0base_uom (target)and soures quantity KF infoobject to targer keyfigure infoobject.
after loading the data into my cube..i am getting the values for quantity keyfiure infoobject but for  unit (CS,IT) i am not getting any value in my cube.
so in my report also the for a specific quantity unit value is showing ERR.which is wrong.it should show me as CS or IT(10CS or 15 IT etc).
Can any one help me on this?
Regards,
satihs

This is not how you map Key Figure and Currency in cube..
First check in RSD5 whether you have Unit Infoobjet assigned to the key figure.
in Type/Unit tab ..you have to assign 0BASE_UOM to your Key Figure.
Then in transformation from DataSource to Cube  : connect both the Unit and Key ( in source) figure to target KF.
In Rule Detail you have to select .
Target Unit = 0BASE_UOM
Unit  = From Source
Source Unit = Your source field name for unit
Let me know after doing all these whether are getting unit field in cube
