Re: Use TOPCOUNT to get the top ones in order of the year you want

You just need to specify the specific elements for any dimension that's in the Sales Test cube. If the Year dimension is called "Year" it would look something like below: { TOPCOUNT( { TM1FILTERBYLEVEL( {tm1subsetall( [Month] )} ,0)} ,5 , [Sales Test].([Year].[2013],[Sales Analysis Measure...

Re: MDX Filter by Cube Value

How many dimensions does the "Plan Employee" cube have? Your expression accounts for 3 dimensions; Employee, Category, and Measures_Plan_Employee. If there are more dimensions in the cube then it will either be trying to automatically derive an element for those dimensions - it can do this...

Re: DBRW with alternative hierarchies

What is the use case for involving more than 1 alternative hierarchy from the same dimension in the same formula? Consider a sku dimension where n-level elements are car models. You want all automatic models from hierarchy 1, all SUV models from hierarchy 2 - this result returns only the sum of n-l...

Check if there is a }picklist cube - if there is, it will take precedence over the attribute picklist setting.

Re: Parallel ODBC loads

In addition to the good points from Lotsaram, I will throw in an additional possibility that is easy to rule out. The problem can be the time taken querying the data source. Particularly if the source is a view and takes 1 minute to query all, sometimes (depending on keys and so such) you can find t...

Re: Feeder took 20 min to save. Can we reduce it?

Just to add a different spin/idea. It's a rate so do you actually need to feed it? Feeding gives you 2 benefits, 1 is that you can consolidate the results up - since it's a rate you don't need that. The other is that it allows you to zero suppress. Even if you don't feed the cells, they still contai...

Re: Access a users private View

You can't exactly access a user's private view. But you can copy it from the users private }vues folder in the data directory to your own (note that if it contains any private subsets you will also need to copy those over.) Then you should be able to see the view as a private view of your own, where...

Re: Rule Erroring on Duplicative Dimension in DB Formula

Do all of these dimensions exist in the cube that you are writing the rule for:
!Metrics Scenario
!MidstreamAssets
!MidstreamMetrics
!Year
!Period
!MetricScenario
!MidstreamContractMetrics


I expect that the issue you are seeing is more fundamental than the name of the cube/dimension being the same.

Hi Declan, Isn't the problem with adding the If as you suggest that there are 2 divisions in the example given (5410 and 7207), so it will run through the status twice?
