This should be easy in MDX?

  • I want the results to show Name on the rows -which it does - but I do not want it to split out the Reponse Desc on the columns. I want to see a total figure for the [Activated] named set. I am sure I have done this before but cannot remember how?!

    Here is my query at the moment;

    WITH

    SET [Activated] AS '{[CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Response Desc].&[Not Interested],

    [CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Response Desc].&[Interested],

    [CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Response Desc].&[Cancelled]}'

    MEMBER [Measures].[ActivatedCount] AS 'CROSSJOIN([Activated],

    [Measures].[CRM Sales Prompt Activity Count])'

    SELECT NON EMPTY [CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Name].MEMBERS ON ROWS,

    NON EMPTY ([Activated],

    [Measures].[CRM Sales Prompt Activity Count])

    ON COLUMNS

    FROM [CRMCube]

  • You're using a named set rather than a tuple. If you use a calc member you created, it should work. Note I've used a SUM assuming that summing the counts is correct for the rollup. You may have to use an alternate aggregation function.

    WITH

    SET [Activated] AS '{[CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Response Desc].&[Not Interested],

    [CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Response Desc].&[Interested],

    [CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Response Desc].&[Cancelled]}'

    MEMBER [Measures].[ActivatedCount] AS 'SUM([Activated],

    [Measures].[CRM Sales Prompt Activity Count])'

    SELECT NON EMPTY [CRM DIM Sales Prompt Activity].[Name].MEMBERS ON ROWS,

    [Measures].[ActivatedCount] ON COLUMNS

    FROM [CRMCube]

  • Thanks Steve, I'll give this a go tomorrow.

    I have to product several reports which have NoOfAppointments, CancelledAppointments, SuccesfulAppointments etc. By Sales Person and by Area.

    At the moment the only fact I have is [Measures].[CRM Sales Prompt Activity Count] the I have to go about using the Reponse Desc field to seperate the activty out each time.

    My feeling is that these fields; NoOfAppointments, CancelledAppointments, SuccesfulAppointments should be defined as facts within the cube? Therefore I can bring them straight into the query and slice on Area and Sales Person etc.

    What are your thoughts?
