How to: Define a Linked Object (Measure Group)

You can use the Linked Object Wizard to either link to or import cubes, dimensions, measure groups, calculations, and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). You can link to or import these items from another database on the same server or from a database on a remote server

Note

If you choose to link to or import calculations or KPIs, they will not be valid if you do not also include the objects that they reference. After you complete the Linked Object Wizard, review the Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) for all calculations and KPIs that you chose while you were running the wizard.

To start the Linked Object Wizard

  1. Open the cube to which you want to link or import objects, and then click either the Cube Structure tab or the Dimension Usage tab.

  2. On the toolbar, click the New Linked Object button to start the wizard.
