CAUTION: Although you can create a physical schema from a multidimensional data source, it is strongly recommended that you import it. Siebel Business Analytics uses XMLA standards to import data from a multidimensional data source into the analytics repository. During the import process, each cube in a multidimensional data source is created as a single physical cube table. Siebel Business Analytics imports the cube, including its metrics, dimensions and hierarchies. After importing the cubes, you need to make sure that the physical cube columns have the correct aggregation rule and that the default member type ALL is correctly imported for a hierarchy. For more information, see Adding a Hierarchy to a Physical Cube Table. The following list includes information that you should consider before importing data:
