MDX conversion

Question

Hi,
Could any one explain conversion of this calculation script into MDX?
If (@IsLev("Entity",0))
     "Total (e.)"="Total (e)"->@PARENT("Entity")->"Total Products"->"Total Customers"->"Total Vehicles";
EndIf
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm assuming that you're working on a ASO Cube.
I'm going to divide the question into two parts.
1)When IF statement is True.
Essbase BSO Calc :-
IF (@ISLEV(BCK,0) and @ISLEV(LTV,0) and @ISLEV(MOB,0) and @ISLEV(SCR,0) and @ISLEV("Total Product",0) and @ISLEV("ClassID",0) and @ISLEV("Status",0))
C_ENR_BAL+C_BSL_CCF_FNL*C_TOT_UNUSD;
ASO:-
In ASO cube there are no calc scripts only MDX,so you have to create a member to store the Calculated value.
Put this formula on that member.
*Case when ISLEAF([BCK].CurrentMember) and ISleaf([LTV].currentmember) and ISleaf([MOB].currentmember) and ISleaf([SCR].currentmember) and @ISleaf([Total Product].Currentmember) and @ISleaf([ClassID].Currentmember) and @ISleaf([Status].Currentmember)*
then
[C_ENR_BAL]+[C_BSL_CCF_FNL]*[C_TOT_UNUSD]
End
Coming to the 2nd part :-
ELSE
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR (BCK)));
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR (LTV)));
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR (MOB)));
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR (SCR)));
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR ("Total Product")));
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR ("ClassID")));
@SUM (@CHILDREN (@CURRMBR ("Status")));
I think in the else part,your are trying to roll up the data to the dimensional level.
If this is true then you don’t have to aggregate ASO cube, it is done automatically.Practically speaking you really don't need the else part.
