New feature Attribute left outer join effect in MicroStrategy Web

New workaround Attribute left outer join effect in MicroStrategy Web

Left outer join for attribute is unavailable in Developer by changing the VLDB settings in for the attribute and grid.

But, this can also be done with this work around, here are three tables in warehouse. Create three attributes named A, B, C, and after them added in a report in Developer, no data returns， as showed below.

Here is the workaround to achieve the attribute left outer join on MicroStrategy Web.

Follow the steps below.

Create three reports named A (with attribute A), A&B (with attribute A and B),A&C (with attribute A and C)
Create a dashboard based on the three reports created in last step.
In the right corner of the dashboard, change the data source to none.

Logical Views to specify an outer join between two attribute lookup tables when only attributes are on a report

Logical Views to specify an outer join between two attribute lookup tables when only attributes are on a report Apart from using the VLDB properties to create the left outer join, article describes how to use the Logical View to specify an outer join between two attribute lookup tables when only attributes are on a report. This method exists as attribute only outer joins will not be generated on their own by the MicroStrategy SQL engine. This is because they are only necessary with r agged/unbalanced hierarchies which are not supported as null attribute IDs are not supported (parent elements with no child elements or child elements with no parents). Brief instructions are provided using the example below. Consider, two attributes: Parent01 and Child01 have a parent-child relationship. Their Lookup tables are defined, as follows Parent01 Child01 Note that although there are 4 ID values for the attribute Parent01, there is no defined relationship ...

Fiscal Week, Fiscal Month, Fiscal Quarter and Fiscal Year calculations in Microstrategy

Fiscal Week, Fiscal Month, Fiscal Quarter and Fiscal Year calculations in Microstrategy FiscalWeek Returns the numeric position of a week within a fiscal year, for a given input date.

Syntax FiscalWeek< firstWeekDay , firstMonth >( Date / Time ) Where: • Date / Time is the input date or timestamp. • firstWeekDay (default value is 1) is a parameter that determines which day of the week is considered as the first day of the week. You can type an integer value from 1 to 7, with 1 representing Sunday, 2 representing Monday, and so on until 7 representing Saturday. • firstMonth (default value is 1) is a parameter that determines which month is considered as the start of the fiscal year. You can type an integer value from 1 to 12, with 1 representing January, 2 representing February, and so on until ...

Settings for Outer Join between metrics in MicroStrategy

Settings for Outer Join between metrics in MicroStrategy MicroStrategy adopts multi-pass logic to determine the execution plan for a report. This means that every metric is evaluated in separate SQL passes. Outer Joins come into play when MicroStrategy Engine merges the results from all SQL passes into one report. For a multi-pass report, different Outer Join behaviors can give the user completely different results. In addition, report metrics can be of different types which can, in some cases, influence the result of the outer join. In MicroStrategy, there are two settings that users can access to control Outer Join behavior : Formula Join Type and Metric Join Type . Metric Join Type: VLDB Setting at Database Instance Level Report and Template Levels Report Editor > Data > Report Data Options Metric Level Metric editor > Tools > Metric Join Type Control Join between Metrics Formula Join Type: Only at Compound/Split...

Predictive modelling in Data Science using Microstrategy

Creating a predictive modelling in MicroStrategy MicroStrategy Data Mining Services has been evolving to include more data mining algorithms and functionality. One key feature is MicroStrategy Developer’s Training Metric Wizard. The Training Metric Wizard can be used to create several different types of predictive models including linear and exponential regression, logistic regression, decision tree, cluster, time series, and association rules. Linear and exponential regression The linear regression data mining technique should be familiar to you if you have ever tried to extrapolate or interpolate data, tried to find the line that best fits a series of data points, or used Microsoft Excel’s LINEST or LOGEST functions. Regression analyzes the relationship between several predictive inputs, or independent variables, and a dependent variable that is to be predicted. Regression finds the line that best fits the data, with a minimum of error. For example, you have a dataset ...

Scheduling a report or document to be sent to an FTP in MSTR

Scheduling a report or document to be sent to an FTP server You can have a report or document automatically delivered to a location on your FTP server on a specific schedule. To do so, you must subscribe to the report or document, as described in the steps below. You can customize your subscription by typing macros in the File Name , Sub-folder , or Zip File Name fields. These macros are automatically replaced with the appropriate text when the report or document is delivered. For example, you create a subscription to a document. If you type {&Project} in the File Name field, the name of the project in which the document is saved is displayed in the name of the document when it is delivered. • This procedure assumes that an administrator has already added your FTP server as a new device in Developer. Steps to do so are included in the System Administrator Help . To send a report or document to an FTP server on a schedule ...
