Essbase Studio

Question

Hi friends,
I need some help in creating cube using essbase studio
I have data in the following format :
Month , Employee , Region , Activity , Activity dates
Jan , ABC , CA , Intro_date , 01/01/2011
Feb , ABC , CA , offer_date , 02/01/2011
I want to load Activity in measures and activity dates as data (typed measures) . I am able to do this successfully using Rules files but i want to do it using Essbase studio since we also want to have drill through reports. How do i create measure hierarchy ?
Please advice.

Hi SatyaB,
My data is in following format :
Month , Employee , Region , Activity , Activity dates
Jan , ABC , CA , Intro_date , 01/01/2011
Feb , ABC , CA , offer_date , 02/01/2011
instead of
Month , Employee , Region , Intro_date, Offer_Date
Jan , ABC , CA , Intro_date , *01/01/2011, 02/01/2011*
where intro_date and offer_date goes in measures.
Kindly advice. I have already ordered "Look smarter than you are with Essbase studio" today, but it will take time to arrive and i kind off need to fix this before that if possible.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
