Viewing Dimension and Member Properties

Use Outline Viewer or Outline Editor to view member property details. Outline Editor enables you to change properties but requires more Essbase Administration Server resources than Outline Viewer does, possibly affecting overall performance.

  To view dimension or member properties using Outline Viewer:

  1. From Enterprise View or a custom view, select a database.

  2. Right-click the Outline node and select View. Outline Viewer displays the selected outline.

  3. On the Outline tab of Outline Viewer, right-click a dimension or member and select View member properties.

    Administration Services Console adds a view pane, showing the outline in the left pane and the properties of the selected items in the right pane. If the right pane is already open, it displays the properties of the most recently selected item.

If the selected member has a formula, Administration Services Console shows the formula in a third pane immediately below the properties pane. See Viewing Formulas.

  To view dimension or member properties using Outline Editor:

  1. From Enterprise View or a custom view, select a database.

  2. Right-click the Outline node and select Edit. Outline Editor displays the selected outline.

  3. Select one or more dimensions and members and right-click.

  4. Select Edit member properties.

    The Member Properties dialog box is displayed. Information is organized on tabs. See Member Properties dialog box for details about the tabs.
