Hi All,
I have to write one MDX query for account member.
Hierarchy:
Accounts
---acm1

Now i need to calculate AVG for acm1 which is in accounts dimension based on Year and Division.
I have written
Sum(([Accounts].[TotalCreationToInvoiceDayNumber],[TimeMonth].CurrentMember.LastChild):([Accounts].[TotalCreationToInvoiceDayNumber],[TimeMonth].CurrentMember.LastChild.LastChild.Lag(11)))
Count(CrossJoin({[Accounts].[TotalCreationToInvoiceDayNumber]},{({[TimeMonth].CurrentMember.LastChild.LastChild:[TimeMonth].CurrentMember.LastChild.LastChild.Lag(11)})}
But it is not working, Can you please help me to complete this query????

Date parameters using MDX query

Hello experts,
Not sure if this question falls under SSAS or SSRS but I'm writing it here for now and hopefully get the answer.
I'm using SSAS cube to develop a report using SSRS and this is the first time I'm doing it. I want to filter records based on date range and did some research online. My report contains two datasets:
1. dsMain dataset -> it contains all the field which I want to use in the report and added a parameter thru query designed with following settings:
Dimension : Dates
Hierachary : Date
Operator : Range (Inclusive)
Parameters : checked
it created two parameters called FromDatesDate and toDatesDate
2. I created another dataset called dsDate and wrote a custom query (found at following link) and changed FromDatesDate and ToDatesDate using this date dataset
https://jsimonbi.wordpress.com/2011/03/22/using-a-date-parameter-in-ssrs-with-mdx/
Query for dsDate
WITH
MEMBER DateValue
AS
[Dates].[Date].CurrentMember.UniqueName
MEMBER DateLabel
AS
[Dates].[Date].CurrentMember.Name
SELECT
[Measures].[DateValue],
[Measures].[DateLabel]
} ON 0,
[Dates].[Date].[Date]
} ON 1
FROM [myCube]
Here is the value returned by dsDate dataset (above query)
DateValue DateLabel
06/04/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29375]
06/04/1980
06/05/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29376]
06/05/1980
06/06/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29377]
06/06/1980
06/07/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29378]
06/07/1980
06/08/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29379]
06/08/1980
06/09/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29380]
06/09/1980
06/10/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29381]
06/10/1980
06/11/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29382]
06/11/1980
06/12/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29383]
06/12/1980
06/13/1980 [Dates].[Date].&[29384]
06/13/1980
Here is what I changed in FromDatesDate and ToDatesDate parmeter:
Under Available Values tab:
Dataset : dsDate
Value Field : DateValue
Label Field : DateLabel
Here are my questions:
1. I want to use date/time parameter so that user doesn't have to scroll thru whole date dimension.
2. I changed the FromDatesDate and ToDatesDate to date/time parameter, removed the values from Available values tab and made the following changes on Parmaeters expression under dsMain dataset
=”[Dates].[Date].&[” + Format(CDate(Parameters!FromDatesDate.Value),”MM/dd/yyyy”)
+ “T00:00:00]”
=”[Dates].[Date].&[” + Format(CDate(Parameters!ToDatesDate.Value),”MM/dd/yyyy”)
+ “T00:00:00]”
Now when I run the report I get following error:
Query (1, 55) The restrictions imposed by the CONSTRAINED flag in the STRTOMEMBER function are violated.
I think the reason is by changing parameter to date/time, now I cannot get "DateValue" which is required for the query.
1. What is the best way to work with date parameters?
Hope it is all clear and look forward to hear from experts.
Thanks,
P

Hi Parry2k,
In Analysis Services, a member can be referenced by either its member name or by its member key. The member key is used by the dimension to specifically identify a given member. The ampersand (&) character is used in MDX to differentiate
a member key from a member name. In this scenario, the datetime is member name, not the member key. So you should not add "&".

Member Names and Keys

MDX query for parent-child combination display

Hi guys..
I am really new to the Essbase technology.
Could you please help me out with this one:
is it possible to extract the data(for example the metadata of a outline)..eg:-
The outline structure is as follows :
A1
A11
A12
A2
A21
A22
I want a MDX query to display it as :
A1 A11
A1 A12
A2 A21
A2 A22
I have tried various ways but couldnt come up with a query for this.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Unfortunately MDX cannot do this. If you think about what you are asking for, you are essentially saying that you want to see members of the same dimension on different axis. Multi-dimensional queries can't do that (think about trying to do it with addin).
A further limiation is that MDX is not robust enough to allow you to work the results into a single axis using a concatenation function because while there is a string-to-member function, there is no member-to-string function and concat requires a string as input.
Other approaches would require MDX to support joins or subqueries, which it does not.
As others have mentioned, to do what you want to do, you need outline extractor or something like that.
*Fun fact - if you have OBIEE 11g, it can do reporting in Essbase with hierarchy members in hierarchy format or column format, which will give you the results you need. That alone is good reason to start using OBIEE.

MDX query in Init Block

hi,
Need a help regarding the Initialization block which connects to a Essbase and fetches the results using a MDX query.
I need to get the Max of the month cube column and put in a variable.
The cube time hierarchy contains the column at the 5th physical level with values as 2008 August, 2008 December, 2009 January and 1994 March etc.
Now I want to get the Max of the value i.e. 2009 January.
I saw another Init block with the query. This query gave result as 1994 March.
select
{} on columns,
{ClosingPeriod([DEPMTI01].Generations(5))} on rows
from [XXX.YYY]
Now when I modified the query to below and run it throws an syntax error.
select
{} on columns,
{Max([DEPMTI01].Generations(5))} on rows
from [XXX.YYY]
Please help me out with the correct way on writing the MDX so as I can fetch my desired result of 2009 January.

MDX Query Editable in BO 3.0?

Hello, everyone,
We are building BObj Universes in Version 3.0 against SAP BEx Queries. We have installed the "flattening error" service packs on the BW side, and have read and worked through the forum posts. Our issue is creating objects in the Universe, with the guidelines outlined by Didier in "OLAP universes best practices" document.
We can create simple objects in the Universe, but when we try to add the MDX functions to perform a rolling aggregate across time (the last 12 fiscal periods) or to find the corresponding value for the same period for one year ago, we get an error in the report.
So, we have a couple of questions:
1. Is there anyplace to see / edit the MDX query, like can be done in a relational universe?
2. Where exactly in the Universe does the syntax outlined in Didier's Best Practice document go? We have tried in the Universe object definition, but cannot see anywhere else to place the syntax.
Thanks for any assistance!
Regards,
Judy

Hi Judy,
Here is an example of YTD on previous member:
<EXPRESSION> SUM(YTD([0CALMONTH].PrevMember), [Measures].[4OHSNHMBZDWBV5J6NOYCWXZXV]) </EXPRESSION>
You can also use MDX expression such as PERIOSDTODATE or PARALLELPERIOD for returning the value of a n previous member at a given level.
Example, measure for the 3rd previous member at any level:
<EXPRESSION> ( [Measures].[4OHSNHMBZDWBV5J6NOYCWXZXV], PARALLELPERIOD( [0CALMONTH].currentmember.level, 3, [0CALMONTH].currentmember) ) </EXPRESSION>
Example, YTD with parallelperiod:
<EXPRESSION> SUM(YTD( PARALLELPERIOD( [0CALMONTH].currentmember.level, 1, [0CALMONTH].currentmember) ), [Measures].[4OHSNHMBZDWBV5J6NOYCWXZXV]) </EXPRESSION>
Please have a look on the Microsoft documentation for parallelperiod:[http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms145500.aspx]
Best regards
Didier

MDX Query: Equivalent of SQL's "IN" clause

Hi,
In SQL, we have an option of viewing data of multiple members by specifying IN as follows:
SELECT column1 from TABLE WHERE
column2 in ('value1','value2');
Is there any equivalent of that in MDX?
Let's say my outline is like this:
--Products (Standard Dimension)
|_____Computers (+)
|_____ Televisions (+)
|_____Others (+)
--Regions (Standard Dimension)
|_____North(+)
|_____ South (+)
|_____East(+)
|_____West(+)
--Measures (Accounts Dimension)
|_____Estimate Sales
|_____Actual Sales
I would like to answer this question:
What is the actual sales and estimate sales of each product in "North" and "East" regions?
If the region constraint is not there, the MDX query would be:
SELECT Products.Members on Rows
{[Estimate Sales], [Actual Sales]} on Columns
from appName.dbName
How do I modify this query to include only North and East regions, and still selecting product on rows?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vivek Ganesan

Just add a where condition:
WHERE
({[Regions].[North], [Regions].[East})
for more info:
Member range specification:

Converting MDX query into SQL Server 2008

We have MDX query based OLAP CUbes.
To reduce MDX based dependenies, we have to convert MDX based cube to sql server 2008 based queries.
For this I need expert advise to convert below query to sql server 2008 based query :
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.Measures.[Ack Lost]
                    AS 'Sum(PeriodsToDate([Time].[Year], [Time].CurrentMember ), [Measures].[Lost])',
                    FORMAT_STRING = "#,#",
                    VISIBLE = 1;

Hi Sachin,
According to your description, you need to convert the MDX query to T-SQL query, right?
Your MDX query is calculated measure that return the total value from the first sibling and ending with the given member. In T-SQL query we can use the query as Yogisha provided to achieve the same requirement. Now you need to a tool to convert all the MDX
related SSAS cube queries to MS SQL Server 2008 based queries.
Although MDX has some similarities with T-SQL these languages are in many ways different. Beginning to learn and comprehend SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) MDX queries can be difficult after one has spent years writing queries in T-SQL. Currently, there
is no such a tool to convert a MDX query to T-SQL query since the structure difference between MDX and T-SQL. So you need to convert them manually, please refer to the links below to see the details.

Filters not getting passed in MDX query while using SAP BW with OBIEE

Hello,
I've been working on OBIEE with SAP BW as back-end. I've created some reports & those are working fine when there is less amount of data. But when I try to run a report with 3 dimensions & 1 fact it throws an error saying "No more storage space available for extending an internal table". When I checked MDX query, I found that the filters that I had applied to request & also selected from prompts are not getting passed in that query. So, I tried running a simple request using a simple filter in Answers. Although this request returns results but I can't see filter conditions in query. MDX query always show crossjoin but I can't see filter conditions anywhere.
Is it the normal OBIEE behaviour OR am I doing something wrong in there? Can you please help me out with this?
Thanks,
Rocky

Hello Sainath,
We tried those things. But it is still giving same error.
State: HY00. Code: 10058. [NQODBC][SQL_STATE:HY000][nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. XML/A error returned from the server: Fault code: "XMLAnalysisError.0X80000005". Fault string: "The XML for Analysis provider encountered an error: MDX result contains too many cells (more than 1 million)". (HY000)
The problem here, I think, is the filter parameters are not getting passed in the MDX query. Any idea why would that happen? Is there any setting to do so?
Thanks in advance for help.

Need help in MDX query

Hi All
I am new to MDX language and need a MDX functions/query on the cube to get the required output, Given below is the scenario with the data.
I am maintaining the data in a table in dataMart with given structure. We have the data at day and weekly in a single table with granularity indicator and count is the measure group column. While loading the data in to mart table we are populaiting the week
Key from week table and Month key from month table and joining in the cube.
we need to calculate the inventory for a particular month. If a user selects a particular month the output would be count = 30 as a measure called Closed and count = 16 as a measure value called Open.

Hi Venkatesh,
According to your description, you need to count the members with conditions in a particular month, right?
In MDX, we can achieve the requirement by using Count and Filter function, I have tested it on AdventureWorks cube, the sample query below is for you reference.
with member [ConditionalCount]
as
count(filter([Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2008]&[2].children,[Measures].[Internet Order Count]>50))
select {[Measures].[Internet Order Count],[ConditionalCount]} on 0,
[Date].[Calendar].[Date].members on 1
from
(select [Date].[Calendar].[Month].&[2008]&[2] on 0 from
[Adventure Works]
Reference
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144823.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms146037.aspx
If this is not what you want, please elaborate your requirement, such as the detail structure of your cube, so that we can make further analysis.

SSRS report with tabular model – MDX query CoalesceEmpty function does not return the provided string value

Hello everyone,
I created following calculated member in MDX query. I am using it in one of the report parameter in dataset (single select dropdown list as report parameter).
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS
CoalesceEmpty([Customer].[National Account Code].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION,'None')
I would like to display 'None' text at the top of the dropdown list values. So that when user selects 'None' then this parameter will not considered in MDX query else the selected National Account Code will be considered to filter report data. But,
the above return blank/empty value for [Customer].[National Account Code].& member though I specified 'None' as text in CoalesceEmpty function. Any advice would be appreciated.

SSRS report with cube – MDX query how to get an extra row with value '0'.

Hello everyone,
I'm unable to write the MDX query to get '0' value as first row in output. Following is my MDX query:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Dummy] AS   '0'
SELECT NON EMPTY Union( {[Measures].[Amount] },{[Measures].[Dummy]}) ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY { ([Customer].[Customer Nbr].[Customer Nbr].ALLMEMBERS * [Fiscal].[Year].[Year].ALLMEMBERS ) }
having [Measures].[Amount] > 5000
ON ROWS FROM [cube]
With above query, the output returns the value '0' as a separate column.
I would like to get it in form of first row for [Measures].[Amount]. Like,
Amount
0
500
200
100
What needs to be changed to achieve the above result? I'm planning to use the above value in line chart to start the line from 0th value as described in following URL. (Note: The below URL is using SQL query and not MDX expressions.)

The round brackets in your expression are forcing an implicit crossjoin between the 3 lines. I would do the following which creates a set of the DummyYear plus the real year members and then crossjoin that with the customer set.
WITH MEMBER [Fiscal].[Year].DummyYear AS   '0'
SELECT NON EMPTY {[Measures].[Amount]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY {[Fiscal].[Year].DummyYear,
     [Fiscal].[Year].[Year].MEMBERS} *
            [Customer].[Customer Nbr].[Customer Nbr].MEMBERS
having [Measures].[Amount] > 5000
ON ROWS FROM [cube]

So It is working for two different values by using union and cross join.
Can you please provide the solution ..
Thanks in advance

Hi Philip
Thanks for replying me.
I tried on that way, In my mdx query i am using one slice attribute (i.e [Customer].[Gender].allmembers) in rows so getting error "The Hierarchy already appears in Axis1".

How to get the child data in MDX query?

I have an MDX query that will return the data for an OLAP report. These report data include the parent_id, child_id and some dimensions data in it. How do I modify the MDX query to have a New member to show a dimension value of the child_id.
The child_is is actually the parent_id on another row. It is the "Pstpd Decision" I want to be included in a new column using the "Appeal Id". Thanks

data.

I got it to work by adding the child_id's "decison' to the fact table as it is alot easier to get that data using Sql Script while creating the fact table and also there is already a "decsion" dimension setup. In the cube I can select the
parent_id's decision and/or child_id's decision. It is working on the report. Thanks.
