Totaling Data Non-Leaf Data Members

  • Hi everyone, I am new in this world of Business Intelligence and this is my question:

    I have a dimension Seller, it has a relation parent-child for its boss, but the boss too has sells. Are there any method for getting the total of my sellers without include the sells of their bosses.

    Example:

    Boss 1 Total = $600 (but he also too sells of $200, but default it would $800)

    Seller 1 -> $100

    Seller 2 -> $200

    Seller 3 -> $300

    With option must i include for don't include the boss as total of sells.

    Thank you very much for helping me.

    Regards.

  • I assume that you are using Analysis Services - otherwise this will not help you at all... 🙂

    You can the the boss'es own values by addressing .Datamember and if you subtract this from the value that you already have in a calculated member you will get the value without the boss, e.g.:

    .Currentmember.Datamember)

    (You should obviously exchange the text between " "'s with the real name of your measure and hierarchy :))

    "measure" - ("measure" - Seller."hierarchyname".Currentmember.Datamember)
