Re: Create a pick list
What did you try? What sort of picklist are you trying to create (static, dimension based, subset based, variable upon other data input to the cube)?
As a starting point try the developer guide:

Re: Create a pick list
First of all thanks for your response. I'm trying to create a picklist based on subset. I have a dimension named "RUBRIQUE" which has a list of measure ("Garanty","blabla",...). I have a cube with a dimension named "MEASURE", this one has a measure named "RUBRIQUE". I would like to put in this measure the content of my dimension "RUBRIQUE"

If you had checked the developer guide link that I suggested you would have seen that you need to:beber005 wrote:First of all thanks for your response.

- Create a string attribute on your measures dimension called "PickList"
- In the picklist attribute against the measure "RUBRIQUE" put "Dimension:RUBRIQUE"

Re: Create a pick list
I have already read this guide. But your suggestion dosen't work. Maybe I do a bad thing when I create a string attribute on my measure.

Re: Create a pick list
Is your measures dimension the last dimension in the cube? And is the element within it specified as a string element?beber005 wrote:I have already read this guide. But your suggestion dosen't work. Maybe I do a bad thing when I create a string attribute on my measure.
Also If you specify exactly what you have tried and exactly how it doesn't work you will get to the solution much quicker.

Re: Create a pick list
Ok !!
First of all, I created a dimension "RUBRIQUE". In this one I have create a subset wihch one contains my entire measures. After that, I have created a cube named "PickList_NRE" with 3 dimensions :
- RUBRIQUE
- CUTOMER
- PICKLIST (this one is already created in my TM1's structure and it is already used by other cube)
In this cube I would like to write a rule to specify that my dimension "RUBRIQUE" contains a list of data. I used this formalism :

Re: Create a pick list
You ought to not create picklist cube manually. Create it with right click - create picklist cube
Picklist cube allows you to create a picklist for a cell. If you need to create picklist for a column (for a measure), you should use elementattributes cube

Yes I want to create a pick list for a cell. Sorry if I did not express myself properly

Re: Create a pick list
picklist cube must be named somthing like }Picklist_CubeName
it should be created be TM1 when you right click some cube and choose "create picklist cube"
it should be created be TM1 when you right click some cube and choose "create picklist cube"
