Dynamic Subset Expression - EP Access table replication
Posted: Fri Jul 06, 2018 1:29 am
Hi again all,
Facing a challenge re-creating a guide available online for mimicking access tables in EP.
I am wanting to suppress invalid intersections from the display.
Im using the following IBM guide:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.w ... 0080&aid=1
Specifically im referring to the technique found on the bottom of page 24 through 25.
I think I understand the functions and what they do, essentially im using the filter function to filter the ALL subset of my dimension against my security cube using the current members and its valid combination as a check against 0.
My code placed in the subset editor (right click on dimension/new/subset), tick dynamic and enter expression as follows:
'2 Active Projects' is my dimension on the cube im looking to suppress members if the access cube has a value of 0.
'WIP Access - WIP Active and WIP Inactive' is my access cube where I have populated the combinations with a 0 or 1 depending if visibility should be given.
'2 Active Projects' and '2 WIP Hierarchy' are two dimensions of my access cube that are being iterated over using the CurrentMember function.
'1 Access' is my calc dimension where 'Access_Num' is my element with the value (0,1) against it.
Syntactically i seem to be OK. if i purposesly put a extra bracket etc then i get a validation error and cant save the expression.
However, when actually going to apply this subset to the cube (right click the dimension / edit subset / select it from drop down and press OK) i get the following error:
Note: theres not ~900 odd characters in my expression so ive assumed this error is being thrown from some code behind the scenes.
Server logs dont have a lot more than that:
Details dont mean a lot to me but here is a dump:
A static subset seems to work ok. Creating the subset in Architect yields the same result.
Any pointers would be most helpful as im stuck.
Cheers,
Mark.
