My fact table is

Col1
Col2
Col3
Sum1
Sum2
Sum3

Col1 and Col2 are related to respective other information tables in a star schema fashion.

Col3 is related to other information table, but when I include that table in Cube during the processing of Cube I get error "Members Per Parent Limit exeeds(64,000)", Col3 have more than million of distinct values. So I did not include that information table in cube.

My requirement is to have distinct count of col3, I define it using DISTINCT COUNT Col3

But the problem is that it takes huge processing time and space too. I search internet to find some solutions but all other alternatives need information table for col3.

Is there any other alternative?

I think that error message came about as all your members where part of a hierarhical structure make all the members the same level and see what that does, but I could be mistaken!!!
