Show Calculation Wizard introduction page |
Displays the Calculation Wizard introduction page. The introduction page also contains an option to suppress its display in the future. Use the Calculation Wizard to create new calculation columns that compare two existing columns and to create metrics in bulk (aggregated), including existing error trapping for NULL and divide by zero logic. You start the Calculation Wizard in the Business Model and Mapping layer by right-clicking any logical fact or dimension column of data type numeric, and then selecting the option Calculation Wizard. NOTE: Time Series calculation is not allowed for a logical table not identified as a time dimension. For more information, refer to topics about time dimensions in Process of Creating and Administering Dimensions.

You can also right-click on a table or column in the Physical Layer and select the option Update Row Count. Note: Row counts are not shown for items that are stored procedure calls (from the optional Object Type drop-down list in the General tab of the Physical Table dialog). Row counts are not available for XML, XML Server, or multidimensional databases. You cannot update row counts on any new objects until you check them in. |
Prompt when moving logical columns |
Allows you to ignore, specify an existing, or create a new logical table source for a moved column. |
Remove unused physical tables after Merge |
Executes a utility to clean the repository of unused physical objects. It might make the resulting repository smaller. |
Allow import from repository |
When checked, the Import from repository option on the File menu becomes available. NOTE: By default, the Import from repository option on the File menu is disabled and this option will not be supported in the future. It is recommended that you create projects in the repository that contain the objects that you wish to import, and then use repository merge to bring the projects into your current repository.
