Hello,

If I want to use a user defined function inside an MDX statement - does the
dll that contain the function have to be registered on the analysis server,
on the client or both?

Thanks.

As best I understand it, since the UDF is executed server-side, the dll
would be registered on the analysis server machine only. The clearest
explanation I've seen is on the first two links under "Dimension
Security" on Mosha's page here:

That is true for UDFs used as part of dimension security. They must be
registered on the server.
For UDFs called as part of a query, those must be defined on the client.
