About range dimension values

Configuring a dimension to use range dimension values is useful for data that should be navigated as discrete values.

For example, a price value can be organized into discrete ranges ($0 - $50, $51 - $100, $101 - $200, and so on) with a Price Range dimension.

You can create a hierarchy of range dimension values. Normally the higher levels of a dimension's hierarchy are more general and the lower levels are more specific. For a range dimension, this translates to broader ranges at higher levels and more narrow ranges at lower levels.

This section describes the work necessary to construct range dimensions values and how to configure the pipeline to assign the appropriate range values to records.
