Default Non-Aggregating Hierarchies - 08-23-2006 , 02:14 PM






One of the requests that we have for our project is to build a calendar
hierarchy that DOES NOT aggregate. Its only to be used for navigation
purposes. I have a hierachy built as follows:

Year
--Qtr
---Month
----Date

In AS2005, there is a attribute property IsAggregatable. I tried to set all
of the IsAggregatable flags to false but I get an error because these
attributes are in a hierarchy. Has anybody done this in 2005 yet?

change this option for the YEAR attribute only.
(not at the dimension level)

Jeje,

I figured out that using Unaries will work better since there is no
aggregation throughout the whole hierarchy. Thanks for the answer though.
