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)

N-Level deep nested prompts in MicroStrategy

N-Level deep nested prompts in MicroStrategy Prompt-in-prompt is a feature in which the answer to one prompt is used to define another prompt. This feature is only implemented for element list prompts. The following procedure describes how to achieve this: Create the highest level filter. This is a filter which contains a prompt on an attribute element list. Create a filter on the attribute "Year." Click "prompt on attribute element list" and click "Next" through the rest of the screens to accept the default values. Do not set any additional conditions. Save the filter as "YEAR FILTER:"   From this level on, each filter will contain both a prompt on an element list and will have its element list filtered by the filter created one level above it. There is no limit to the number of such filters that can be layered. Create a filter on attribute "Quarter" and click "Prompt." Select "Use a filter to reduce the nu...

Split Hierarchy with M-M(many to many) relationships in Microstrategy:

Split Hierarchy with M-M(many to many) relationships in Microstrategy: Split Hierarchy with M-M relationships: Explanation A split hierarchy is one - that at the lowest level - has more than one child. The schema looks like the following diagram. Problem Reports that contain B or C will ignore filters on the other . Recommendation MicroStrategy recommends to have only one child at the lowest level. Workaround / Solution Make B and C parents of a new compound attribute using both columns as its ID with A B and C as its parents.  

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. This function is useful in financial reporting when the start of the fiscal year is different than the start of the calendar year. 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 ...

"System Prompt" and its uses in MicroStrategy

System Prompt and its uses in MicroStrategy WHAT IS A "SYSTEM PROMPT"? "System Prompt" is a system object that was introduced back in version 8.0.0. The object is named as "User Login" and is implemented as a prompt object. The object can be found under Public Objects > Prompts > System prompts, as shown below: Unlike ordinary prompt objects, system prompts don't require any answers from the user. When a report containing a system prompt runs, the prompt is answered automatically with the login of the user who runs the report. On the other hand, like other prompt objects, answers to system prompts are used to match caches. Therefore, users don't share caches for reports that contain system prompts. For details on how caches are matched, refer to the following MicroStrategy Knowledge Base document: KB5300-7X0-0147 - How are caches matched in MicroStrategy Intelligence Server 7.x? WHEN ARE SYSTEM PROMPTS USED?    System pr...

"Element browsing is not supported for this subtype of attributes" error message in MicroStrategy

Element browsing is not supported for this subtype of attributes]" error message appears MicroStrategy This happens when browsing attribute elements in a filter, prompt report or dashboard. When running a prompt dashboard in MicroStrategy Web 9.4.1 and above, the following error message appears when browsing prompt attribute. The issue does not occur in MicroStrategy Desktop.         "Element browsing is not supported for this subtype of attributes. The element net server was unable to load an element collection from the element server due to failure." CAUSE: Possible causes are: There is no browse forms selected in the attribute creation process, this also happens when one of the browse forms have been deleted by architect and forget to add another browse form. The attribute contains multiple browsing form and MicroStrategy Web is unable to load its elements.     WORKAROUND: Add a browsing form under display tab of the attribute, so that display form ...

Dashboard performance troubleshooting in MicroStrategy 10

 Dashboard performance troubleshooting in MicroStrategy 10.x Details of Document Execution Request, introduce the Performance Troubleshooting Cycle, and present links to other resources with detailed steps for troubleshooting specific components that may affect performance. To begin, the architecture for dashboard execution is diagrammed here: MicroStrategy Intelligence Server When an end user makes a  Document Execution Request  through any client (a web browser via MicroStrategy Web, the MicroStrategy Desktop/Developer client, the MicroStrategy Mobile app, or the MicroStrategy Office client), the request is sent to the MicroStrategy Intelligence Server, which processes the request and prepares the response. The MicroStrategy Intelligence Server will execute all children datasets on the dashboard by either generating SQL and running this against the data warehouse, or by fetching data from a cache. The Intelligence Server will first analyz...

System Manager workflow to execute on a schedule

Creating a System Manager workflow to execute on a schedule System Manager workflow can execute on a schedule or after an event has been triggered. This can be accomplished by creating a simple batch file, and scheduling that batch file to execute with a third-party tool like Microsoft Task Scheduler.   Note : To avoid user permission conflicts, the following steps must be performed with highest privileges.   In the below example, the workflow makes the i-server restarts every day.   1. The user must first have a valid workflow. This particular workflow is a template that is delivered out-of-the-box with System Manager.   2. Save the workflow in  .smw  format.   3. In a text editor (such as Notepad), enter the command line statement that the task scheduler should execute.     MASysMgr.exe -w C:\filename.smw” “UserName=User1 “Password=1234”   4. Save the file in  .bat  ...
