LastNonEmpty vs MDX Script solve order

Hi,

I'm using the Account Intelligence and some account members use the aggregation function LastNonEmpty.

Witch evaluates before the LastNonEmpty function or my MDX Script that I put in the calculation inside the cube?

If my MDX Script change some values only in the the leaves of the time dimension in one account (taht uses LastNonEmpty function). What will be evaluate first? My MDX Script and after the LastNonEmpty function or the oposite?

LastNonEmpty is applied to the members above the leaves of Time dimension by aggregation the leaves through LastNonEmpty. Therefore if you will apply some calculation to the leaves of Time - it will be done before the LastNonEmpty aggregation.sql

LastNonEmpty + Time PrevMember don't aggregate correctly

I'm using the Account Intelligence and when I have a balance account modified with a mdx script in cube calculation using the Time prevmember it don't aggregates correctly. I think that it's a solver order problem.

I have a account dimension like that:

Balance (balance account)

Asset (balance account)

Computers (balance account)

Result (flow account)

Computers Investments (flow account)

In the cube calculation I have these formula:

Computers = (Computers, Time.Currentmember.Prevmember) + Computer Investments;

When I query these data I receive these:

2007 Jan Fev Mar

Balance 0 100 50 0

Asset 0 100 50 0

Computers 150 100 150 150

Result 150 100 50 0

Computers Investments 150 100 50 0

It's not aggregatin the (Computers, Time.Currentmember.Prevmember) in account hierarchy, any Idea why is that?

I'm using SQL Server 2005 Enterprise SP1.

I was using the follow Time Hierarchy:

Year

Last Month-to-Last-Child

I am trying to write a calculation to give a Last Month reference, I use the following MDX and it works fine for the Day level

[Time].[Month Comparison].DefaultMember,
ParallelPeriod(
[Time].[Date with Month].[Month], 1,
[Time].[Date with Month].CurrentMember
)

However for Month level, I do not want it to reference to the last month value directly. What I want is, for example, today is "7th May 2007", I want the Last Month Reference for "May 2007 " to be the sum of "1st Apr 2007" to "7th Apr 2007" instead of the sum of the whole "Apr 2007".

Does anyone have any idea on how to archive this? Thanks in advance!

Assuming that all days in a month till the last day with data should be included, something like:

Aggregate(

CrossJoin({[Time].[Month Comparison].DefaultMember},
PeriodsToDate([Time].[Date with Month].CurrentMember.Level,

ParallelPeriod([Time].[Date with Month].[Month], 1,
Tail(NonEmpty(Descendants([Time].[Date with Month].CurrentMember,
[Time].[Date with Month].[Day])).Item(0).Item(0))))))

Last available Value from Last n Years(OLAP, MDX)

Hi,

We have a requirement in which data for a member if not avbl. need to be replaced by the latest data avbl. in the last 'n' previous members and we need to control the number of previous members('n') that can be traversed.
ie..

if we are querying data for 1999 and we give traversal parameter of 3 yrs, in case of non avbl. data for 1999, the next avbl data between 1999-1997 should be placed there. In case of traversal year being 4 then the search range changes to 1999-1996.

Year--- DataSet1 --- DataSet2
1996--- 1 ------ 1
1997--- N/a ------ 2
1998--- N/a ------ N/a
1999--- N/a ------ N/a

Result Set --- YEAR --- (Traverse 3years) ---(Traverse 4years)

Data Set 1 --- 1999 --- N/a --- ------ 1
Data Set 2 --- 1999 --- 2 --- ------ 2

We used the fallowing query...but it is throwing the recursion error.

With Member [Measures].[Last Updated]AS 'tail(
Filter ( LastPeriods(3,[Time].Currentmember),
Not isEmpty([Measures].[Observation Value])
),1).item(0)'

Member [Measures].[Last Updated1]AS'
iif (NOt isEmpty([Measures].[Observation Value]),[Measures].[Observation Value],([Measures].[Last Updated]))'

Select
Crossjoin ({[Series].[All Series].[Current account].[BM.GSR.FCTY.CD],[Series].[All Series].[Travel & tourism].[ST.INT.XPND.MP.ZS]},{[Measures].[Observation Value],[Measures].[Last Updated1]}) on columns,
({[Time].[All Time].[1996],[Time].[All Time].[1997],[Time].[All Time].[1998],[Time].[All Time].[1999]}) on rows
from Test1
where([Country].[All Country].[IND])

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks and regards

RajaWhat is N/A? Null?

Also, you're trying to mix and match rows...do you want the MAX?|||Thaks for responding..

1. N/A is Not Available. It means for these combination of dimensions there is no data.

2. I am writing a query like, for each member what is the value available in cube and what value it has been replaced with (in case of n/a cases).
