Cube functions
Unfortunately don't remember any guidance, only samples in different places. And yes, if go deeper that's all about MDX. You may use practically all MDX functions and expressions within cube formulas.
Unfortunately the second function with the 2 sets isn't working for me. I'm getting a n/A error reading. I don't know what . I did actually try this before I made the post but in a way suggested in a mdx video on Youtube using {} to encase the joined members but that didn't work which brought here. But I'm sure we're both onto something, but I am blank. A
I saw the difference in what I missed. But even when I tried switching up the numbers in the file you sent the numbers didn't always show up correctly. But after researching some more videos, I noticed a trend. They all had a [measure] as a the "sort by". So I made a simple MIN( function of the ID numbers column and it now works once I choose ascending order as well. To anyone that may need to use this as reference, the numbers would have to in perfect order without skipping any numbers in between because if you don't the next number will screw everything up. For e.g. if you you were to have numbers from 1 to 10 and you miss out the 2 and the 4, number 3 will come in as the 2nd smallest number and number 5 will be the 3rd smallest number.
Also you will see the cubeset count one of the photos highlighted in blue w/ white text which is of course the correct amount. However, on another note, the number highlighted in brown tan w/ white text is where I get an N/a reading as if that's the limit of the set. Not sure if it's a bug in excel or if its from the fact the sample data model I used has several flaws unnoticed to me at this time
. Now I'm trying to see how I can get some kind of MATCH( function or something that can be nested the cube function. I'll try cubememberproperty since there's only 7 of them. If you or anyone reading this knows a function that's compatible please make mention. Will try any and post results. Thank you
