| I have a time dimension used in all the cubes. While reporting, I would like to show the current date (or month or year) whatever the granularity be as the default filter for that dimension. How can we achieve this? I am not able to find out an MDX function which does this. Thanks in advance. |

| Hi,I see many people have read the post, and nobody replied so far.This Date stuff and getting the client to show the current date seems to be a common problem in AS.I have no ready solution, but maybe this idea might help:Use the VB functions Date, Now, CStr ... functions to format the datemember you want to filter on.Then use StrToMember("...MyFormattedDate...") to get a dimension member in the time dimension, and apply this as default filter./rockmoose |
