excel - Is Power Pivot Multi Dimensional? -
i created multi dimensional pivot table in excel , used following add on generate mdx: http://olappivottableextend.codeplex.com/releases/view/618637
the mdx generated excel follows:
select non empty hierarchize(drilldownmember({{{drilldownlevel({[customer].[customer geography].[all]},,,include_calc_members)}}}, {[customer].[customer geography].[state province].&[new south wales]&[australia]},,,include_calc_members)) dimension properties parent_unique_name,hierarchy_unique_name,[customer].[customer geography].[state province].[country-region],[customer].[customer geography].[city].[state province] on columns , non empty hierarchize({drilldownlevel({[customer].[fullname].[all]},,,include_calc_members)}) dimension properties parent_unique_name,hierarchy_unique_name on rows [adventure works dw2012] ([measures].[sales amount]) cell properties value, format_string, language, back_color, fore_color, font_flags
i opened power pivot windows , copied , pasted mdx. generated 2 dimensional data structure.
i realise power pivot available because of max row limitation in excel i.e. can deal more rows. power pivot 2 dimensional data source? i.e. used of data 1 place standard pivot table can used analyse data multi dimensional perspective?
it pivot table using mdx
. pivot tables came around same time olap
- use same technology. think if create pivot , point @ server-side tabular model xl pivot still talking in mdx.
so pivot table needs work mdx irrespective of data source.
power pivot , tabular models use language called dax. tabular uses analysis services different multi-dimensional .... tabular
