A cube view is a method of displaying source cube data by fixing one or several source cube dimensions. To fix a dimension, select an element, by which the data should be extracted. If required, a dimension can be fixed by selecting several dimension elements. Data will be aggregated by these elements.
Select a dictionary, which elements should be fixed, in the Source Cube Dimensions box. Then select the checkbox of the selected dictionary and select the required dictionary element in the Fix Dimension Elements box.
NOTE. After the cube view is created, all dimensions with default element added to the cube source will be automatically put to the cube view with the Fix Dimension selection on the default element.
Multiple element selection becomes available after an aggregation method is selected in the Aggregation drop-down list. The aggregation of fixed dimensions with the use of the specified method is applied for selected elements.
The fixed dictionaries during building a report based on a cube view are hidden.
