Memberset in bpc

Question

what is member set in bpc?
plz elaborate on this.....

Answer 1

In BPC a memberset is simply a collection of members from the same dimension.  These members can be at a base level or at a parent, ansector, or other level and are formulated by the report developer (in EVDRE) to meet a requirement.  The term memberset in BPC should NOT be confused with the MDX definition of SET.
Example Dimension:
~ US
~~~ North
~~~~~~ New York
~~~~~~ New Jersey
~~~ South
~~~~~~ Alabama
~~~~~~ South Carolina
~~~ East
~~~~~~ Delaware
~~~~~~ Maryland
~~~ West
~~~~~~ California
~~~~~~ Nevada
Example MemberSet 1 {North, Nevada, Maryland}
Example MemberSet 2
Example MemberSet 3 {Alabama, Delaware, West}
Example MemberSet 4 {US, West, South Carolina}
When defining membersets in BPC (in EVDRE), the software allows us to use functions to dynamically create membersets.  BPC 7.5 memberset functions: MEMBERS, BASMEMBERS, BAS, DEP, ALL, SELF, NOEXPAND, GDEP, GBAS, GALL.  Further documentation can be found in the SAP BPC documentation.
