This may be a simple MDX question but I've spent 2 days without any luck.
I have a simple fact table with the following columns:
ID state type price
001 CA TRUCK 50300
002 MA BIKE 3010
003 MA BOAT 0
004 CO BOAT 20100
... 开发者_开发知识库 ...
I have a cube with 2 dimensions, state and type. Now I'd like to get a count of rows for these two dimensions where price > 0. Can I do it without creating a 3rd dimension (id)? How would I go about doing this? Thanks!
You can first create a new column in your fact table/view -> CountRows which is 1 where the Price is > 0 and NULL otherwise. E.g. (in T-SQL):
...
CASE
WHEN Price > 0 THEN 1
ELSE NULL
END CountRows
...
Then, create a new measure with Sum aggregation type on top of this column and you should be good to go. In the example above, this new measure will give you 1 for State.MA and for Type.Boat.
