Hi all,

This one has made me curious:

Syntax
The weighting property controls how a child member rolls up to its immediate parent, whether that child is also a parent of another consolidation or just a leaf member. Top level consolidations do not have weight.

Please refer to this page

Can someone shed some light and provide an example ?

Best regards,

Wim

Pretty sure this was introduced in order to support the subset editor in Workspace (and PAfE).

Thanks. Indeed I hadn’t seen it earlier.

Not to drag up an old post but did anyone figure out the syntax of how to use this? I was looking for a way to filter for all elements that have a weight not equal to 1. I realize weighting is based up on the elements relationship to a parent but there isn't any documentation on the syntax and it would be nice to use this if possible

Hi,

The answer I got on this was:

"the weight expression seems more of an internal mechanism, not really built for something like filtering. We (IBM) would recommend filtering using another method"

Regards,
Mark

Couldn't you use the Elweight function to pull the value out into an attribute and then run your MDX filter versus the attribute value?
