Title: Urgent - no data in dimensional report
Post by: cogcurious on 17 Sep 2011 07:09:18 AM
I drag a measure into my crosstab. drag members into my rows and columns but all i get is 0s in my report. I checked in the cube and there are numbers in there. Am i doing something wrong and have to enable something. This is happening for all measures and all the combinations of rows & columns This is a dimensional report out of TM1 cubes

Do we have to state contexts for each dimension in the report. For eg, if i have 6 dimensions, but,  my crosstab only needs data out of 2 dimensions, one in row and other in columns. Do i need to specify the other 4 dimensions in context filter else the report would throw 0s

Depending on the structure of your cube,  it is very possible that you need to reference another hierarchy. Try placing a member from each hierarchy in the slicer, and running the report after each one.  Can you get data from AS?

Thanks. The default member used is the root. When i put context filters for those heirarchies. It does come upwith data.
