Description (where applicable)

Measures (table to be generated as far as possible)

Aggregation of measures is based on SUM if not explicitly noted.

This section describes the basic measures in the cube. These are either measures defined in the core Information Source, in the model itself or in the ETL process. The columns have the following meaning:

Core Measure: A measure that has its origin in a core Information Source
Calculated Y/N: A measure specifically defined for the model, e.g. percentages etc. These measures do not derive from the Information Source.
Contains Time Intelligence Y/N: Some measures do also have addtional time intelligence measures like Year To Date (YTD) Se separate section.
Definition/Note: Specifies if there is a specific logig behind a measure. More information might also be found in documentation for Information Sources.
Aggregation Type: Specifies the aggregation type of a measure when not SUM is used.
Hidden Y/N: Specifies if a measure is hidden and there by not visible to the end user when browing the model.

Time Intelligence Measures

Time based measures are calculated in the cube with respect to other measures. The table below defines the meaning/definition of the different time measures. These measures need to be used with a specific time dimension hierarchy [REPORTING_DATE].[RepDateMFHy].

Measure	Meaning
Ytd	Aggregated value for current month in current year. E.g. for period 201210 Ytd represents sum of periods 201200-201210.
R12	For a given period, the sum all months from one year back up to the previous month. E.g. Rolling 12 for 201210 is the sum of months 201110 - 201209
PY	Previous Year The value of the corresponding month one year back. E.g. for month 201210, the value of month 201110.
YTD PY	Year to Date Previous Year Aggregated value for corresponding month one year back. E.g. for month 201210 YTD Previous Year represents sum of months 201101-201110.
R12 PY	Rolling 12 (completed) Months Previous Year For a given month, first going one year back, then taking the sum of all months from one (more) year back up to the previous month. E.g. for month 201210 the sum of month 201010-201109
Avg XXX Ytd	Sum XXX YTD/Count XXX YTD

Data source Information

The data source for this object is defined using IFS Developer Tool. The data source contains a number of transformations where the model reads data from the last step, i.e. the Data source view name (DW Source View Name).
