MEASURE_AGGREGATOR

xsd:int

An enumeration that identifies how a measure was derived. This enumeration can be one of the following values:

  • 1 – (MDMEASURE_AGGR_SUM) MEASURE aggregates from SUM.

  • 2 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_COUNT) MEASURE aggregates from COUNT.

  • 3 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_MIN) MEASURE aggregates from MIN.

  • 4 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_MAX) MEASURE aggregates from MAX.

  • 5 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_AVG) MEASURE aggregates from AVG.

  • 6 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_VAR) MEASURE aggregates from VAR.

  • 7 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_STD) Identifies that the measure aggregates from STDEV.

  • 8 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_DST) Distinct Count: The aggregation is a count of unique members.

  • 9 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_NONE) None: No aggregation is applied.

  • 10 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_AVGCHILDREN) Average of Children: The aggregation of a member is the average of its children.

  • 11 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_FIRSTCHILD) First Child: The member value is evaluated as the value of its first child along the time dimension.

  • 12 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_LASTCHILD) Last Child: The member value is evaluated as the value of its last child along the time dimension.

  • 13 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_FIRSTNONEMPTY) First Non-Empty: The member value is evaluated as the value of its first child along the time dimension that contains data.

  • 14 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_LASTNONEMPTY) Last Non-Empty: The member value is evaluated as the value of its last child along the time dimension that contains data.

  • 15 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_BYACCOUNT) ByAccount: The system uses the semiadditive behavior specified for the account type.

  • 127 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_CALCULATED) Identifies that the measure was derived from a formula that was not any of the single functions listed in any of the preceding single functions.

  • 0 - (MDMEASURE_AGGR_UNKNOWN) Identifies that the measure was derived from an unknown aggregation function or formula.

DATA_TYPE

xsd:unsignedShort

This enumeration is the same as LEVEL_DBTYPE for MDSCHEMA_LEVELS. (See section 3.1.4.2.2.1.3.8.)

NUMERIC_PRECISION

xsd:unsignedShort

The maximum precision of the measure if the measure object's data type is Numeric, Decimal, or DateTime. NULL for all other property types.

NUMERIC_SCALE

xsd:short

The number of digits to the right of the decimal point if the measure object's type indicator is Numeric, Decimal or DateTime. Otherwise, this value is NULL.<247>

MEASURE_UNITS

xsd:string

The units for the measure.

DESCRIPTION

xsd:string

A description of the measure.

EXPRESSION

xsd:string

An expression for the member.

MEASURE_IS_VISIBLE

xsd:boolean

When true, indicates that the measure is visible. Always returns a value of true. If the measure is not visible, it will not be included in the schema rowset.

LEVELS_LIST

xsd:string

Not currently in use.

MEASURE_NAME_SQL_COLUMN_NAME

xsd:string

The name of the column in the SQL query that corresponds to the measure's name.

MEASURE_UNQUALIFIED_CAPTION

xsd:string

The caption of the measure, not qualified with the measure group caption.

MEASUREGROUP_NAME

xsd:string

Yes

The name of the measure group to which the measure belongs.

MEASURE_DISPLAY_FOLDER

xsd:string

The display folder of the measure.<248>

DEFAULT_FORMAT_STRING

xsd:string

The default format string for the measure.
