Design Issue

  • Greetings,

    Hi everyone, i was playing around with the adventure DW database sample already provided by microsoft, I am through till KPI's.

    but now the database i am working with is not as simple as the previous one,

    Can anyone please shed some light abt how does the AS engine decide upon the Fact Tables and the dimension tables.

    and one of the simple KPI's i want is to calculate the no of calls made every month for a particular representative.

    which is defined as

    Average calls per month = total calls made in a month / total no of working days

    Can anyone just give a brief idea as to how to go abt it.

    any help is appreciated.

    thanks.

  • You need to create 2 measures - 1 that sum the calls, 1 that sums the working days

    Then make a calculated measure that divides one by the other, but review your data and watch out for nulls.
