Default Processing questions - 01-11-2006 , 11:00 AM






I am unclear on a couple points with cube processing.

First, if I perform a full process on dimensions, do I have to perform
a full process on a cube or can I still incrementally update a cube?

Second, I have a cube in which the data source is a view on a table in
sql server. Can I perform an incremental update when source data is
refreshed or must I perform a full process?

Thanks in advance!
Jay

1. You have to full process the cube.

2. To do incremental processing of a partition, you need to specify a source
that contains just the new rows -- this source could be a table/view or a
SQL query.

Thanks,
Akshai
