You can create alias set bindings in the Alias Set Manager. You can also create or edit alias set bindings when creating or editing dimension elements or derived text measures.
Note: | Use care when adding or deleting alias set bindings. Any bindings you add or delete in this dialog box are reflected in the bindings for the selected alias set in the Alias Set Manager. |
To create or edit the alias set bindings for a given alias set:
If the element with which you want to work is not already open, perform an action:
To create a dimension element in the Metadata Navigator, right-click the folder where you want to store the dimension element, and select New, then Dimension Element.
To edit a dimension element, locate it in the Metadata Navigator, right-click, and select Edit.
The Edit Properties dialog box is displayed.
To create or edit an alias binding expression, click the Edit Alias Set button.
In the Alias Bindings dialog box, select the column that contains the alias information that you want to bind to this element, and click Apply.
Optional: To delete an alias binding, select a row in the Alias Sets grid and click Delete.
Repeat step 3 and step 4 for each alias binding you want to create or edit.
