I read the useful tips FAQ sorry in advance if I didn't follow it right

I'm in PAW. I think we're 2.0.0.84.

I have a TI process where the data source is a named view tiListSalesYTD. My goal is to change the TI to do the exact same thing but make the view in the prolog. I will post the code after this to both processes. I opened the current process and saved it as a new name. In the new TI I changed the data source from the tiListSalesYTD view to the cube's default view. I then added code to make a temp view TempListSalesYTD based on a mdx. I run it and it makes the view ok. The MDX matches the old view exactly. However there are no loops through the metadata or data tabs. If I change the data source of the old code from tiListSalesYTD to Default same thing happens. If I change the data source of the new TI to tiListSalesYTD it works.

Here's the original code. This is the version of the TI with the data source of tiListSalesYTD

Code: Select all

Here's my new code. I changed the data source from tiListSalesYTD to Default and am making the same view dynamically in the prolog. When I run this I never run through metadata or data tabs. The only changes are in prolog

I can't figure out for the life of me why this is happening. I've googled around and found some threads here and some on the ibm community. I've seen numerous posts suggesting mdx views as data sources are possible. I'm sure I'm doing something stupid and the answer is obvious. I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

EDIT: Forgot to mention I also made it so my new view was not temporary. The mdx of current vs new view is exactly the same.

Hi,

never used the CreateViewByMDX function before, so hopefully someone with more experience with that will be ale to help you out. I still prefer viewcreate.

But just to confirm, this is not a consolidated element:

mdxProcessSalesMonthYTD

It is a subset the contains a mix of consolidations and leaf elements. I did change the view to use a single leaf value in its place and got the same result (no loops through the data tab)

I also tried

ViewExtractSkipCalcsSet(vCubName, vDataSourceView,0); and it didn't change anything

I think what may be happening is all the intersecting cells are 0 and the old TI is making a file full of zeros while the new TI is not looping the zeroes through data and metadata. Trying to figure out a way to prove that

Posted: **Thu May 29, 2025 9:39 pm**

There is nothing "on 0" which would be the columns and I think you need to have a column set, at least one member. The old static views would allow not having a column dimension, but I think MDX is more particular.

Right now you have all your dimensions nested row-wise.

Move "[currency].[currency].[Local]" to a column position.

vDataSourceMDX = 'SELECT
{ [currency].[currency].[Local]
} ON 0,
{
[book].[book].[Original]
}*{
[scenario].[scenario].[Actual]
...

THANK YOU!

I did what you suggested and got a temporary memory pool error. So I decided to rewrite the mdx below

Code: Select all

# set the MDX for the dynamic view
vDataSourceMDX = 'SELECT non empty
   {  [currency].[currency].[Local] } 
   ON 0,  NON EMPTY
   { TM1SubsetToSet([entity].[entity],"mdxLeaf","public") }*
   { TM1SubsetToSet([customer].[customer],"mdxLeaf","public") }*
   { TM1SubsetToSet([location].[location],"mdxLeaf","public") }*
   { TM1SubsetToSet([territory].[territory],"mdxLeaf","public") }*
   { TM1SubsetToSet([product].[product],"mdxLeaf","public") }*
   { TM1SubsetToSet([year].[year],"mdxProcessSalesYear","public") }*
   { TM1SubsetToSet([month].[month],"mdxProcessSalesMonthYTD","public") }
   ON 1 
FROM
   [rp_sales]
where ( 
 [book].[book].[Original],
 [scenario].[scenario].[Actual],
 [profitability_msr].[profitability_msr].[List Sales]
 )   ';

Which seems to work fine. I also had to rearrange my data source variables as they no longer are in cube dimension order.
The order is
1 - Columns
2 - Rows
3 - Where clause

Also to note the requirement to at least have something on 0 doesn't apply when using the view as a zero out view. I've taken several of these without columns defined the view the same way and done a ViewZeroOut call with no problem. It seems it only applies to a view as a data source.
