Hi, it's been a while since I've developed an SSAS cube but I have the following requirement.
Simplified (in reality there are lots more dimensions) we have a dataset as below which tracks change request tickets:
Dept | TicketNo | CreatedDate | ClosedDate |
Sales | 123585 | 08/09/2012 | 01/10/2012 |
Sales | 123586 | 09/09/2012 | 01/10/2012 |
HR | 123587 | 13/09/2012 | 14/09/2012 |
HR | 123588 | 13/09/2012 | 21/09/2012 |
Sales | 123589 | 21/09/2012 | 25/09/2012 |
Marketing | 123590 | 22/09/2012 | 22/09/2012 |
Sales | 123591 | 22/09/2012 | 03/10/2012 |
Sales | 123592 | 24/09/2012 | 26/09/2012 |
HR | 123593 | 25/09/2012 | 05/10/2012 |
HR | 123594 | 28/09/2012 | 01/10/2012 |
Sales | 123595 | 28/09/2012 | 01/10/2012 |
Marketing | 123596 | 28/09/2012 | 29/09/2012 |
What the users want is to be able to get a count, by department, of the number of tickets created in a given date range, which is easy. But they also want displayed, in the same pivot chart in excel, the number of tickets raised AND closed within that same date range. So something that looks like this:
I can't think how to create the Created and Closed measure in my cube.
Many thanks in advance for your help
