Return Value

BOOLEAN

Note:

The OLAP DML converts +INF or -INF values to NA when it performs calculation. Consequently, this function can only possibly return TRUE when executed against data that has been imported into an analytic workspace from a SQL-populated database but not yet used in an OLAP DML calculation.
