Specifies the basic characteristics of a measure. A measure refers to data, usually numeric and additive, that can be examined and analyzed.
A Measure
is be a simple fact, such as unit cost or unit price. A DerivedMeasure
is a fact derived from existing data using a mathematical operation or a data transformation. Examples of derived facts include averages, totals, percentages, and differences. An OlapMeasure
is a measure that implements a specific OLAP operation, such as Lag or Lead.
Solves can be applied to measures. Solves can implement aggregation, allocation, or forecasting.
A measure is a component of a cube. A cube represents a single measure or a group of measures with the same dimensionality.
