Default Calculated Member new bie - 12-16-2003 , 01:07 AM






I have a problem which i think must have an easy solution.

The issue is i have a dimension lets say Delievery status. What i want
to do is that if someone is browsing in a way that the Delivery Status
= Delivered then i get a sum of measures else i want to show current
values of that measure.

I hope i have been able to explain the problem.

Waiting for a solution

How many members in Delivery Status dimension? How do they behave?

One approach is to create a custom member (versus calculated member) in the
Delivery Status dim. The formula is stored in the dimension table, something
like this:

SUM(Measures.Members, [Delivery Status].DefaultMember)

It could also be done as a calc member for that matter, depending...
