Ahoi,
I have to display "discount" as a measure in my Cube.
The basic structure is:
The request is:
Have a Date and display the DiscountMeasure.
My question is:
Is there a better way to solve this than creating a dataset for each day between DateFrom and DateUntill?
I was hoping the aggregate function could help me, but either they can't or i am missing something.
Thanks
I want to be the very best

How is DiscountMeasure calculated?

Its not calculated its just a number and the 2 date ranges (+ other dimension references)

OK, are these date ranges included in your cube? If so, why are you doing that, rather than allowing the end user to perform the aggregation in a pivot table (or however they are consuming the data)? I mean, why not simply have (Date, DiscountMeasure)?

because the user cant deal with the folloewing example:
Discount: 30%
DateFrom: 28.2.2019
DateTill: 08.09.2020
If the user requests any date that is between Datefrom and DateTill the 30% discount is relevant, but only appears if the specific dates DateFrom or DateTill are selected. I am intrested if there was a better way to allow the user to show the discount in the date range without creating a single row for every date between the range.
Edit:
I just tested what the multiplying version looks like. OOOF
I have 1.6 million data rows (already filtered) which leads to almost 500 million Cube rows for a single year.
Sucks i cant simply write them only on the first of the month since the data range can change mid month.
