Create new dimensions from the Dimensions view, on the Project
tab.
To add a new dimension:
On the Project tab, double-click
Dimensions
to open the Dimensions view.
Click
New.
The Dimension editor appears.
In the Name box, type the name of the new dimension.
Important: Endeca properties and dimensions share a
namespace in the Endeca MDEX Engine. For this reason, Endeca property and
dimension names should always be unique. If the application will use Endeca
Query Language requests, all property and dimension names must be in an NCName
format. For more information about the Endeca Query Language and the NCName
requirement, see the
Endeca Advanced Development Guide.
Modify the other settings as appropriate.
Click
OK.
To add dimension values to the new dimension:
In the Dimensions view,
select the new dimension and then click
Values. This opens the Dimension Values view, where
you can establish the dimension value hierarchy.
Important: Do not add Dimension Values with ID=0. Dgidx rejects dimension values with ID=0.
