Member Preview Dialog Box

The Member Preview dialog box enables you to preview the list of members meeting the selection criteria in the Rules list box, and displays the number of selected members at the bottom of the dialog box.

If you apply the subsetting rules to the members, the Member Preview dialog box expands the rules to member names. For example, if the subset is:

Qtr1, All Children

The Member Preview dialog box displays Jan, Feb, and Mar.

If you use the Find button to do a search on a member, and the search finds one or more matches for the search, the Member Preview dialog box displays the members once. The same holds true for overlapping subsetting rules. For example, if the subset is:

Year, All Children

 Qtr1

The Member Preview dialog box displays Qtr1, Qtr2, Qtr3, and Qtr4 once.

Note:

If the rules do not produce members, the Member Preview dialog box displays only the dimension. For example, if the subset is 400, Pattern Matching 300*, the Member Preview dialog box displays only the Product dimension member because no members begin with 300 in the product code 400.
