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 URL API Parameters

MicroStrategy URL Structure The following table summarizes the root URL structure used for every request to MicroStrategy Web. Environment Main Application URL Administration URL J2EE http://webserver/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWeb http://webserver/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWebAdmin .NET http://webserver/MicroStrategy/asp/Main.aspx http://webserver/MicroStrategy/asp/Admin.aspx Every request sent to MicroStrategy Web calls a central controller. Parameters are appended to  Main.aspx  or  mstrWeb  (in a .NET and J2EE environment, respectively) to indicate to the controller how the request should be internally forwarded and handled. The following examples show a URL for accessing a MicroStrategy folder when the user does not have an existing session. The URL contains not only the parameters needed to connect to MicroStrategy Web, but also the parameters needed to log on and create a session. J2EE environment: <a href="http:...

Metric values are repeated across rows when a report is executed in MicroStrategy

Metric values are repeated across rows when a report is executed in MicroStrategy When comparing report results between DB Query Tool and MicroStrategy, some reports show repeated metric values in MicroStrategy where there were none in DB Query Tool. To illustrate the issue, a fact table CAT_ITEM_SLS has been added into the MicroStrategy Tutorial project and populated with a small set of three rows. CAT_ID ITEM_ID REVENUE  1 1  10   1 2  20  2  2  30  Report results in DB Query Tool: Report results in MicroStrategy: In MicroStrategy, the row for "Art As Experience" in the Spring 2007 catalog repeats the $20 value from the Winter 2007 catalog, where DB Query Tool shows the $30 value from the fact table. CAUSE The discrepancy occurs because the attribute elements for Catalog and Item are in a many-to-many relationship, but the attribute relationship in the MicroStrategy schema is defined incorrectly w...

This value is often the graph item's attribute element information, as attributes are commonly used as the categories of graph reports. {&SERIESLABEL} Name of the graph item’s series. This value is often the graph item's metric name information, as metrics are commonly used as the series of graph reports. {&VALUE} The value of a given data point. {&XVALUE} The X-value of a data point. Only applicable to Bubble charts and Scatter plots. {&YVALUE} The Y-value of a data point. Only applicable to Bubble charts and Scatter plots. {&ZVALUE} The Z-value of a data point.

Personalizing file locations, email and file subscriptions using macros in Microstrategy

Personalizing file locations MSTr allows to dynamically specify the  File Location  and  Backup File Location  in a file device using macros.  For example, if you specify the  File Location  as  C:\Reports\{&RecipientName}\ ,  all subscriptions using that file device are delivered to subfolders of  C:\Reports\ . Subscribed reports or documents for each recipient are delivered to a subfolder with that recipient’s name, such as  C:\Reports\Jane Smith\  or  C:\Reports\Hiro Protagonist\ . The table below lists the macros that can be used in the  File Location  and  Backup File Location  fields in a file device: Description Macro Date on which the subscription is sent {&Date} Time at which the subscription is sent {&Time} Name of the recipient {&RecipientName} User ID (32-character GUID) of the recipient {&RecipientID} Distribution Services add...

Configure a report for use with Bulk Export in MicroStrategy

Configure a report for use with Bulk Export in MicroStrategy The Bulk Export feature enables a large report to be saved as a delimited text file. Using this feature, it is possible to retrieve result sets from a large dataset without having to load the entire dataset into memory. PS:  Once a report is setup for bulk export it cannot be used as a regular report. So if the report needs to be run as a normal report and as a bulk export report, the first step is to make a copy of the report for use with bulk export. Configure Bulk Export Bulk Export options are only available in MicroStrategy Developer. Open a 3-tier connection using MicroStrategy Developer and edit the desired report. Go to 'Data' on the top menu bar. Select 'Configure Bulk Export': Specify any additional desired configuration options. General Settings Bulk export database instance : This is the database instance to use to store the bulk export results. Temporary tables w...

Microstrategy Report Services documents and dashboards

Microstrategy Report Services documents vs Dashboards A MicroStrategy Report Services document displays data coming from multiple reports, with the data laid out and designed in presentation-quality format. Most data on a document is from one or more underlying datasets. A dataset is a standard MicroStrategy report. Other document components that do not originate from the dataset, such as static text used for a title or heading, page numbers, and images, are added by the document's designer and are stored in the document's definition. A Report Services (RS) dashboard is a special type of document. An RS dashboard is commonly only one page long, is intended to be viewed online, and usually provides interactive features that let analysts change how they view the dashboard’s data, as well as what data they are viewing. A broad selection of widgets and a wide variety of formatting options allow you to design a customized, interactive dashboard. Both documents and RS dashb...

Report filters are being ignored in Microstrategy report SQL

Report filters are being ignored in Microstrategy report SQL When users run a report using a simple filter, the filter is not applied to the report in MicroStrategy Developer 9.x and 10.x. The results returned to the users are not filtered as expected. The Report SQL indicates that the filter has not been applied. CAUSE: One scenario is that the MicroStrategy 10.x SQL Engine is ignoring the conditionality at the report level because a metric in the report also contains a related conditionality which has been set to "remove related report filter elements" or "ignore" the filtering criteria at the report level. ACTION: When a report contains the above situation, the follow steps can be done to have both filters applied and be merged for the report results to be executed with: If the report's and metric's filter affect attributes from the same hierarchy, check that the following setting is un-checked: This setting is placed in the me...
