Hi iam very new to OBIEE

1.Can any one clarifies my doubts ..what is the differnce between Fact table LTS and Dimension LTS and if we have multiple Dimension LTS how we need to define ?
2. What is the use of Bridge tables?
3. what is the use of views and is it possible to give relationship to view in physical Jions like FK

1) A logical dimension or fact table can have multiple LTS when the data of the logical table is physically stored in multiple tables for fragmentation or aggregation purposes.
Fragmentation means that the data is stored over different tables, for example: the fact table has one LTS for year = 2007, one LTS for year = 2008, etc. or the dimension table has one LTS for US customers and one LTS for EU customers etc.
Aggregation means that the data is stored over different tables but with different granularity. For example the fact table has one LTS where sales data is stored on day level, and one LTS where sales data is stored on month level.
2) Bridge table are used to create a many-to-many relationship between a dimension and fact table.
3) You can create views to create a physical table which is build upon a SELECT statement. You can use this as if it is a normal physical table, so yes it is possible to create a join between a view and another physical table.

Stijn
