MSTR The key specified is the true key for the warehouse table

The screen shot below illustrates the setting "The key specified is the true key for the warehouse table" in the logical view of a warehouse table:
external image rtaImage?eid=ka1440000009HBu&feoid=00N44000006TPNo&refid=0EM440000002FzU
This setting is only applicable when the attributes on the template are comprised of all the attributes listed as table keys in the logical view of the fact table. Therefore, when checked, this setting forces the Structured Query Language (SQL) to not aggregate the data and to pull only from the fact tables directly.The following SQL demonstrates the difference between two identical reports when this setting is checked and when it is not. The report SQL is provided below the grid view.The first report was run against the fact table City_Subcateg_Sls without the "The key specified is the true key for the warehouse table" checked. It demonstrates aggregation by the metric:
select a11.CUST_CITY_ID CUST_CITY_ID,

max(a12.CUST_CITY_NAME) CUST_CITY_NAME,

a11.SUBCAT_ID SUBCAT_ID,

max(a13.SUBCAT_DESC) SUBCAT_DESC,

sum(a11.TOT_COST) COST

from CITY_SUBCATEG_SLS a11

join LU_CUST_CITY a12

on (a11.CUST_CITY_ID = a12.CUST_CITY_ID)

join LU_SUBCATEG a13

on (a11.SUBCAT_ID = a13.SUBCAT_ID)

group by a11.CUST_CITY_ID,

a11.SUBCAT_ID

The following SQL demonstrates that by having all the keys from the fact table on the report template, the setting "The key specified is the true key for the warehouse table" allows the metric to return the values straight from the fact table without aggregation. This optimizes the SQL generated considerably:

select a11.CUST_CITY_ID CUST_CITY_ID,

a12.CUST_CITY_NAME CUST_CITY_NAME,

a11.SUBCAT_ID SUBCAT_ID,

a13.SUBCAT_DESC SUBCAT_DESC,

a11.TOT_COST COST

from CITY_SUBCATEG_SLS a11

join LU_CUST_CITY a12

on (a11.CUST_CITY_ID = a12.CUST_CITY_ID)

join LU_SUBCATEG a13

on (a11.SUBCAT_ID = a13.SUBCAT_ID)

Microstrategy Dossiers explained

Microstrategy  Dossiers With the release of MicroStrategy 10.9, we’ve taken a leap forward in our dashboarding capabilities by simplifying the user experience, adding storytelling, and collaboration.MSTR has  evolved dashboards to the point that they are more than dashboards - they are  interactive, collaborative analytic stories . Ultimately, it was time to go beyond dashboards, both in concept and in name, and so  the've  renamed VI dashboards to  ‘ dossiers ’.  Dossiers can be created by using the new Desktop product or Workstation or simply from the Web interface which replaces Visual Insights. All the existing visual Insights dashboards will be converted to Dossiers   With MicroStrategy 10.9, there was an active focus on making it easier to build dashboards for the widest audience of end users. To achieve this, some key new capabilities were added that make it easier to author, read, interact and collaborate on dashboards ...

Case functions Microstrategy

Ca se functions Microstrategy Case functions return specified data in a SQL query based on the evaluation of user-defined conditions. In general, a user specifies a list of conditions and corresponding return values. Case This function evaluates multiple expressions until a condition is determined to be true, then returns a corresponding value. If all conditions are false, a default value is returned.  Case  can be used for categorizing data based on multiple conditions. This is a single-value function. Syntax Case ( Condition1 ,  ReturnValue1 ,  Condition2 , ReturnValue2 ,...,  DefaultValue ) Example Case(([Total Revenue] < 300000), 0, ([Total Revenue] < 600000), 1, 2) sum(Case (Day@DESC in (“Sat”,”Sun”), Sales, 0) {~+} Sum(Case(Category@DESC In("Books","Electronics"),Revenue,0)){~+} CaseV (case vector) CaseV  evaluates a single metric and returns different values according to the results. It can be used to perfo...

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 ...

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...

Recursive Hierarchies in Microstrategy

Recursive Hierarchies in Microstrategy Recursive Hierarchies: Explanation A recursive hierarchy or recursive dimension, usually consists of elements that point to other elements pertaining to the same attribute with a parent-child relationship. A classic example is an organization chart: This information can be stored in a recursive fashion using only one table with two ID columns: Problem Recursive hierarchies are not supported by MicroStrategy Recommendation Explode the schema from recursive to dimensional Workaround / Solution The recursive hierarchy table has to be split into several tables, one for each level in the hierarchy (turning it into a traditional snowflake schema). A physical snapshot of the solution is: Each attribute has a 1-M relationship with its child.
