feeders from different cube/dimension

Post by jg.bios »

Hi,

I have a problem of cell not fed,

I take value from another cube and others dimensions name which have not the same degrees of hierarchy.
So I use in feeders, attributes of source leaf elements which reference higher element corresponding to leaf elements of my target,

but it dont work for all indicators unless they are well consolidate in origin.

Any Idea?

It sounds like you have the basic idea correct that feeders only take place at the N level and you have to step up the heirarchy if a dimension in the destination cube is a summary of one in the first.

If your attribute is working some of the time then I'd suggest that in come cases your attribute is wrong, try putting a Dimix test against the attributes and see if any come back 0. =Dimix( 'Summary Dimension', AttributeValue)

If the source values for the feeders are rules then they need to be fed too, so this another possible issue.

Also don't forget that you need to recompile the rule sheet when you change attributes or the feeders don't fire. Just open the rule sheet, press return to enter a line and hit return.

Hopet this helps!
