Calculated members in the framework

Hi,

I'm building Report Studio reports against a dmr package. In some of them I have had to build calculated members which typically tends to appear in several reports.

Is it possible to build these calculated members in the framework instead? It would by convenient to reuse them in Report and Analysis Studio.

Regards,
Fast

What do you mean with calculated members? I tend to solve any logic in the underlying relational layer if at all possible..

In one of my crosstabs I have just pulled a couple of members (calculated in the data mart) as rows. Based on these members I have to calculate several other members/rows to be displayed. These cannot be calculated in the mart. It is no problem doing so in the report but it would be convenient to resuse them in other reports and in Analysis Studio.
