As mentioned process the dimension. You may have to consider how the data is moved, (what the query is because you may have to modify the from date to pull raw data from and insure you are not inserting duplicates into the dimensional database table.) There may have been a hiccup in the Job or whatever moves the data or some disruption in network connectivity. These things can happen. On that note, when there is no match from fact to dimension you may want to set the factkey to -1 to represent a NULL, it will keep the cube from erroring out during processing (so long as you have a -1 in the Dim).Wed, 07 Nov 2012 13:03:09 GMTmmartin1http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1378068-17-1.aspx[quote][b]grasshopper26 (10/29/2012)[/b][hr][quote][b]Scott Murray-240410 (10/29/2012)[/b][hr][quote][b]grasshopper26 (10/28/2012)[/b][hr]I am new to SQL Server OLAP Cubes. I am having the following issue likeex I have purchase order and invoice tables which are used in data source view. These two tables are related by purchase order ID which have one to many relationship with invoices.I am getting the following error for the purcahse orders which i dont have invoicesErrors in the OLAP storage engine: The attribute key cannot be found when processing: Table: purchase orderCan anyone throw some light on this to help me[/quote]I would first check that your dimensions are fully processed with the most current data. If data has been added to the underlying source, but the dimensions have not been processed, that new data is not reflected in the dimension, so when the cube attempts to join the keys columns from fact to dimension, it is not available. If the dimension is up to date, then you will need to check the underlying source and find which invoices are missing. Generally, you should have a value for all keys or you can choose to how to process these error rows by choosing to ignore the missing values. I do not prefer this second option.[/quote]How can i have the value for the missing invoices in invoice table should it be a dummy insert row ? if yes how is it going to effect the data in Excel UI for Summations?[/quote]Not sure about dummy records, but if you have a PO then presumably there is one or more invoices for it, correct? Otherwise, the relationship is broken. Doesn't matter what you plan to view it with, it's broken, cube won't process. we do not use dummy records here. If there is a key in a fact table, that is because it looked up that key in the dimension table during fact ETL.If I get an error like you did, it means, as previous poster stated, that the dimension table may not have been processed. Do that first. If you still get the error, pluck out the query that processing is running and run it yourself to see the errors and do recon.If it isn't the dimension, double-check the relationship you have set up.Wed, 31 Oct 2012 11:42:02 GMTherladygeekednesshttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1378068-17-1.aspxIt will not show in your Excel Pivots.Mon, 29 Oct 2012 07:30:56 GMTScott Murray-240410http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1378068-17-1.aspx[quote][b]Scott Murray-240410 (10/29/2012)[/b][hr][quote][b]grasshopper26 (10/28/2012)[/b][hr]I am new to SQL Server OLAP Cubes.
