OLAP Calulated Measure Total Error

1 New Member
I have 2 fact tables, 1 contains volume of goods sold, and a month key. Each record is for a different store location.

The second fact table contains the number of business days in a month, and the month key.

Now I want to produce a report to show number of business days and the volume for that month. However runing a report returned all NBD records even If there was no volume for that month. So I created a calculated measure to return the NBD only if we had volume.

IIF ( [Measures].[TOTAL VOL], [Measures].[NUM BDS QTY], NULL )

This worked fine, but the NBD totals were wrong. The system totaled the entire NBD table instead of totaling the values returned by my calculated measure.

Does anyone have any ideas for correcting this, or is there another way to do this?

Thanks, Borf

Hi, My OLAP data cube is giving me the following error when I am manipulating OLAP data cube views: "the data being processed is over the allowed limit" I know that this message is caused by the size limit of each form field that is retrieved in the Request object is 102,399 bytes. The error occurs when I exceed this limit.

Hi there, I am trying to make an OLAP cube on a table having two columns (datetime, Number_of_times_an_event_occured). My dimension is time and I want to measure the Min and Max times an event occured over time. I have no problem in calculating Maximum occurance of events over time. However, I have some NULL values in my Number_of_times_an_event_occured column, due to which I don't see any result when I try to calculate

I have a table, advertising_spend with two columns, date and spend.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
