BIDS 2008 - Dimension Usage new relationship Measure Group Column list empty?

Ive been updating my underlying schema, and DSV and now Im having to update some of the Dimensions. Looks like things got a bit "sideways" somewhere along the way. Now that Im going back to reassign dimensions being used within the
Dimension Usage tab of the Cube, the measure group column list is empty when I go to create a new relationship (regular type)

Hi shiftbit,
According to your description, you get an empty Measure Group Columns list when defining relationship. Right?
Based on your screenshot, you may notice that Measure group table is empty, so definitely it can't show any column in the dropdown list. If there's columns in the measure group that are related to the dimension columns, at least it will show the fact
table for Measure group.
In this scenario, please check if the fact table for the Measure group is existing. Re-process the Measure group and try again. If the issue persists, please re-create that measure group.

Column missing in measure group columns list for dimension usage

I added some new columns (dimension ids) to my fact table and refreshed the data source view. Now the new columns show up in the data source view for this fact table. But when I go to dimension usage to tie the new dimensions to this measure, I am not able
to find the columns just added in the measure group columns list.
What do I have to do to be able to see my new columns in this list so that I can update dimension usage.
Thanks.

Hi kvd123,
According to your description, you add columns in fact table and the data source view is already refreshed. However, in dimension usage the meta data is not refreshed. Right?
In this scenario, I suggest you redeploy your cube. Because in Analysis Services, when we modify the cube, the changes are recorded in xxxxx.cube XML file. After you redeploy the cube, those changes are copied to Analysis Services server. Then
the source data will reload into the measure groups.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Slice measure group by dimension related to another measure group

Hello everyone,
My users are wanting to slice one measure group via a dimension related to a different measure group. I have regular relationships here: Dim_SalesStatus <- Fact_Sales -> DD_Link <- Fact_Mfg, and Fact_Mfg has a many-to-many relationship
to Dim_SalesStatus (through intermediate measure group, Fact_Sales). The DD_Link is a degenerate dimension that I created with the LinkId's that exist in the Fact_Sales table. The Fact_Mfg records may or may not have a LinkId. Processed great,
no problem. I was testing the configuration by finding multiple LinkId's that *are* in both fact tables in the data warehouse, then seeing if I can slice. If I slice by only the LinkId, they show the correct counts on both sides as 1. In my following
example, I have two LinkId's (12345 and 67890).
DD_LinkId, Fact Sales count, Fact Mfg count, MfgQuantity
12345, 1, 1, 387
67890, 1, 1, 50
As soon as I try to slice by the SalesStatus, the Fact_Mfg count goes to null on some (not all). It seems like it can’t find the data through the relationship.
Sales Status, DD_LinkId, Fact Sales count, Fact Mfg count, MfgQuantity
Incomplete, 12345, 1, (null), (null)
Incomplete, 67890, 1, 1, 50
I'm not sure what could be the issue, it looks to be all setup correctly to me. LinkId 12345 is not behaving the way I would expect, but 67890 is, and I'm not seeing any differences in the way the data is setup in the DW. What can I check/verify?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello Bill,
Neither of those are true. The FactMfgCount is the default measure added when creating a measure group, and the quantity is a simple column based summed measure.
If I drop the DateEntered dimension altogether, the results returned are shown as expected. When I then recreate it, with a regular relationship to both measure groups, it stops working. If I remove the relationship from DateEntered to Sales,
the expected results are presented. Or, if I remove the relationship from DateEntered to Manufacturing, the expected results are presented.
From what I can tell, as long as a dimension is not related to the fact on both sides of the many to many, the expected results are presented. As soon as I relate a single dimension to both sides of a many-to-many, the data in the data warehouse must
be the same in the related columns, or the results are "(null)".
Is this supposed to be true? If you look at my cube structure image above, that's my setup.
Here is the MDX that I was running, which does not reference a date dimension.
//Without Status, expected results.
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Fact Sales Count], [Measures].[Fact Manufacturing Count] } ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([DD_Link].[Order Link Id].[Order Link Id].ALLMEMBERS ) } ON ROWS
FROM ( SELECT ( {[DD_Link].[Order Link Id].&[18440402] , [DD_Link].[Order Link Id].&[18446846]} ) ON COLUMNS
FROM [TestCube]
go
//With Status, unexpected results.
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Fact Sales Count], [Measures].[Fact Manufacturing Count] } ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([DD_Link].[Order Link Id].[Order Link Id].ALLMEMBERS * [Sales Status].[On Time Delivery Status Description].[On Time Delivery Status Description].ALLMEMBERS ) } ON ROWS
FROM (
SELECT ( {[DD_Link].[Order Link Id].&[18440402] , [DD_Link].[Order Link Id].&[18446846]} ) ON COLUMNS

People and group column become empty on EDIT ITEM

Hi,
I have 3 people and group columns(Peopleonly type) in my custom content type and list definition from the content type. When I EDIT an item from the list , the values in the 3 people and group column dissappear(meaning the fields are shown empty). Has
anybody come across this behaviour. Any solution/workaround ?

Hi Vipul,
Did this only happen to the EditForm.aspx page of that custom list ?
Is this EditForm.aspx page customized ?
Please also check whether there are some related errors in 14\LOGS.
Please re-create another new EditForm.aspx page using the SharePoint Designer 2010, then check result again.

Link measure group to two dimensions

hello all - we have 3 fact tables in the data source view:
1. salesOrders
2. pucrahseOrders
3. journalEntry
The journalEntry fact table stores both sales and purchase orders, but each row in the journalEntry table can be linked to either salesOrders or pucrahseOrders. I created degenerate dimensions in the cube off of sales orders and purchase orders fact table
and I am trying to link these degenerate dimensions to the journalEntry measure group. However, the journalEntry measure group is showing no data when I link it to both the dimensions but it shows data when I link it to just one dimension.. what am I
doing wrong?

They're exclusive set isnt it? ie relationship is
either salesOrders or pucrahseOrders So when you use combination there's no data that is going to match both the condition. WHat you can do is to analyze the fact seperately using either of the dims or alternatively you can create a dimension merging
both salesOrders and purchaseOrders using UNION ALL and use it to relate to fact.

SSAS Tabular - Hide dimensions without measures from measure groups

Hello all,
I have a tabular model cube with several dimensions and fact table.
The problem is all the model tables appear as measure groups in the client (excel).
How can I hide these dimensions from the measure groups as they should only appear as related dimensions in the facts measure groups?
I have tried the option "hide from client tools" but this also hides the table in the related dimensions in fact measure groups.
Thanks for the help,
Best Regards,
André

Dimension usage multiple columns

In the Data source view, it is possible to create a relationship between a fact and dimension with multiple columns. How is this handled in the dimension usage pane? Can I create a dimensions that relates to a fact on multiple columns?
John Schroeder

Yes it is possible to have multi column relationships in SSAS multidimensional.
If you create the relationship in the DSV then when you create the cube the dimensions usage will pick up the columns in the relationship. If the cube already exists - when you add a dimension that has multiple columns in it's key attribute you can pick
which two columns in the fact should be used to link to the dimension.

Organization Model : Adding new relationships

Hi friends,
<b> Organization Model : Adding new relationships to the existing list while assigning agents to a position </b>
Using transaction PPOMW, after creating an organization unit we assign a position to it.
When we right click the Position and select assign from the context menu, a dialog box appears where we have to choose relationships.
Can we create and add new relationships to this list. say for e.g. Position: holder Site
Please help.
Jon

Jon,
This is definitely possible. I had a similar reqt where a new relationship Position: Holder Location was required.
Here's how to go about it.
1. We have to maintain the required entry in the table T77AR
This can be done through Transaction Code: SM30 or OOVK
Enter the table name T77AR and click Maintain button
2. Select Relationship 008: Holder from the table
Double Click on Relationship Characteristics from the frame on the Left Hand side. Here two entries are maintained.
The details of each of the above columns are given below.
A/B: Contains a code that represents a particular type of a relationship. there are two types, active(A) and passive(B) (reciprocal).
The two types exist since most relationships have two corresponding sides, or perspectives. For example, consider the relationship between a father and son. There is only one relationship, but there are two distinct perspectives to that relationship.
NOTE: Active and passive should not be assumed to mean superior and subordinate. Sometimes one side of a relationship does have a superior standing. However, it is also possible that both sides of a relationship have equal, and corresponding, standing. It is also possible that some relationships will be one-sided. This occurs when, for example, you create relationships with external objects.
Relationship: Contains a code that represents the relationship between two objects.
100% Check: You can specify in this field whether the 100% limit should be checked when percentages are entered for weighted relationships (infotype 1001).
The value entered in this field will determine the type of message that is issued if the 100% limit is exceeded when a relationship is created.
You can choose between the following values:
'E' = error
'I' = information
'W' = warning
' ' = no check is carried out
Check Work Schedule: You can use this field to control how the system is to treat relationships to persons in connection with the infotype "Work Schedule" (1011).
Check obsolete: This field controls the system reaction when relationships are entered or changed in connection with the infotype "Obsolete - 1014".
3. Now double click on the Allowed Relationships button from the frame on the left hand side.
Here we maintain a new entry Site.
Object: S
Object type text: Position
A/B: A
Rel: 008
Relationship Name: Holder
RelObjType: F (Site)
4. This entry now appears in the dialog box

Single line of text/email id to People or Group column

I have a list of employee details, along with their SharePoint email ID. I want to import this list along with a new People or Group column, where it reads the email id and picks the correct user from Active Directory. How to import this?

Hi Abul,
Based on your description, I did a test. When I used users' email address in excel table and imported it to SharePoint list, the column would be saved as Hyperlink or Picture type. If I used Domain\User, after importing it to SharePoint list, the column
would be saved as Single line of text type.
It seems that it only is converted into Single line of text or Hyperlink type when you import a table into SharePoint list, by default. There is not a way to convert the table column in excel file into People column in SharePoint list.
Thanks,

SSAS 2008 - How to get processing times per dimension / measure group?

Hi experts!
SSAS 2008. I am doing analysis and I'm trying to get information (from dmv or log) about processing times per dimension / measure group. Any ideas how to do that?
Thanks,

also in DMV there's no column recording the processing time, so we suggest you using SSAS AMO to programmatically get the state and last processed date time. Please see:
Analysis Management Objects (AMO)
Hi John,
Thanks for you info, As
Simon Suggested there is no DMV columns available.
You can use below link for more information.

Usage Based Optimization Wizard not finding Queries for Selected Measure Group (2008)

I have configured my analysis services server to capture queries in an OLAP Query Log table. The connection string points to a table on a SQL Server relational database. I have verified that the dbo.OlapQueryLog table was created. I have set it to
capture every 5th query. The table has been collecting query statistics for several hours. I opened my model in BIDS, clicked on the cube and opened the Aggregations tab. I click on the measure group partition and select the Usage Based Optimization
button. The wizard opens up and I click next. In the "Specify Query Criteria" dialog, there is a warning that there "are no queries in the log for the selected measure group". The problem is that there are queries but the UBO
Wizard doesn't seem to be finding them. Do I need to set a property in the BIDS to point to the location of the query log file in the relational database?
davidg12

Hi David,
Is your SSAS database name and ID are same? We came across same kind of issue while ago. We initially created our database with one name and later renamed the database.
The database name and ID should be same in order to perform Usage Based Optimization.
To do so,
On the solution explorer the top node is the database.
Right click on that node and click edit database. In the property windown you should be able to see ID. The ID and the name of the database should be the same.
If both are not same, Change the database name to match ID.
Please mark as Answer if this helps!

Dimension usage relationship between dimensions

Hi,
please I have a case where an attribute of a dimension is part of the measure in a report, How can I establish a dimension usage relationship between this table and other dimension that is related as below( whereby the supposed fact table primary key is
appearing as foreign key in the dimension table). Thanks
ACCOUNT TABLE
accid -PK
EXTRAS TABLE
accid -FK

Hi 14QR1A,
According to your description, you want to build the relationship between dimension tables. Right?
In Analysis Services, it can have relationship between dimension like some snowflake schema. In BIDS, you can direct build the relationship between dimension tables in Data Source View. For example, the ProductCategory has relationship with
ProductSubCategory in AdventureWorks sample.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Tabular : Using Table only as Measure Group not as Dimension

Hi there i am quite new to the Tabular model, and what i am encountering right now must be something many of you who have had the Chance, must have had to deal with.
I am Trying to Rebuild my Cube in the Tabular Model, Thus i have inserted all the Tables that i also have in the Cube.
Now the Creation of Measures seemed quite simple to me, i just selected the Row i would Need, click the Summation button and i would have a Measure.
Now the Problem i am facing is the following: I have a Measure Group named after the Fact Table, and the Fact Table also shown as a Dimension, my first thought was to hide it from the Clienttools,but i can't hide it from Clienttools because than the Measure
Group will be hidden too,
is there a way to Only get the Measure Group and not get the Dimension ?

Hi Victor,
When you click "Semantics", you can choose "Attribute" or "Measure" in the "Type" column and choose "SUM/COUNT/MAX/MIN" in the "Aggregation" column.
