Property |
Description |
|---|---|
Name/Code/Comment |
Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field. |
Stereotype |
Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file. |
|
Fact |
Specifies the fact used by the cube. Use the tools to the right of the list to create, browse for, or view the properties of the currently selected fact. |
Keywords |
Provide a way of loosely grouping objects through tagging. To enter multiple keywords, separate them with commas. |
The following tabs are also available:
Fact Measures - lists the Measures linked to the fact used by the cube (see Measures (PDM)).
Queries - displays the SQL statement required to generate the cube data text file that is used to populate the OLAP cube.
