The following table describes the elements that are included in the XSD schema for MeasureGroup. Those elements common to all major objects are described in section 2.2.4.2.2.1.

Element	Read-Only	Default value	Description
LastProcessed	Yes		A timestamp indicating the date and time when the MeasureGroup was last processed.
Translations		Empty	A collection of Translation objects.
Type		"Regular"	Provides both the server and client applications with information about the contents of the MeasureGroup.
State	Yes		The state of processing of the object.
Measures		Empty	A collection of Measure objects.
DataAggregation		"DataAndCacheAggregatable"	Indicates whether the server can aggregate data (persisted on disk or cached in memory).
Source		Empty	The source of data for MeasureGroup. MUST NOT be used if DataSourceID for cube is not OLAP sourced DataSourceView. If present, MUST be of type MeasureGroupBinding.
StorageMode		Default is the value from the Cube	The storage mode for this object. When the value of StorageMode is "InMemory", the valuens attribute MUST be used.
StorageLocation		Default is the value from the Cube	The file system storage location.
IgnoreUnrelatedDimensions		True	When true, specifies to ignore dimensions unrelated to this MeasureGroup in an MDX query or expression; otherwise, false.
ProactiveCaching		Empty	Proactive caching settings for the MeasureGroup.
EstimatedRows		Empty	The estimated number of rows in the MeasureGroup.
ErrorConfiguration		Empty	Error configuration settings for this MeasureGroup.
EstimatedSize	Yes		The estimated size of the MeasureGroup in bytes.
ProcessingMode		"Regular"	The processing mode for the object.
Dimensions		Empty	A collection of type MeasureGroupDimension. None are allowed if there is a MeasureGroupBinding at time of creation. When returned by DISCOVER_XML_METADATA, at least one Dimension is always returned.
Partitions		Empty	A collection of Partition objects.
AggregationPrefix		Empty	A prefix used on tables that are used for aggregation. This serves as default for partitions in this MeasureGroup.
ProcessingPriority		Zero	An integer that determines the priority for processing.
AggregationDesigns		Empty	A collection of objects of type AggregationDesign.
