I have constructed a time dimension(Year/Quarter/Month) for the cube.

However, when I expand the time dimension, the display format for month is 1,10,11,12,2,3,4,.....,9

what can I do to order the time dimension like 1,2,3,4.....10,11,12

If your time dimension is defined as a string, months or days need to be front padded with zeros to a total length of 2.

Hope that helps.

The virtual dimension order the weekday in alphabetical order.


Then How can I order Mon, Tue, Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun in virtual dimension?

don't use the "label" column for sorting. Use a different column for the sorting.

When you use the dimension wiazrd, it offers you the choice to modify the sorting and uniqueness properties.

hope that helps.
