Properties
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
![]() |
AdjustTimeZone | Whether to apply UTCToWarehouseTime conversions to the field. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
AggregationFunction | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
AttributeHierarchyEnabled | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
ComputedExpression | If the field is a computed column, this will contain the expression to determine the column |
![]() |
DisplayFolderName | The name of the Display Folder for this item in the Cube. Null or Empty String indicates no folder. Currently Display Folders are not translated. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
FormatString | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
FriendlyName | The Friendly Name. (Inherited from NamedItem.) |
![]() |
GenerateETL | Should this field be included in the auto-generated ETL for the relational warehouse? If it is not included it will not be in the autogenerated stored procedures. Any fields included in the stored procedures must be assigned a value when the stored procedure is called otherwise the row will will be updated to have NULL for that value. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
IncludeInRelationalInterface | Include this field in the autogenerated Relational Interface (that is Fact Views). Default Value: True (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
InstanceSelection | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
IsComputed | Whether this field is computed or not |
![]() |
IsNumeric | Returns whether the field is "logically numeric". Currently person fields are stored by using integer SK fields, but this property does not consider them numeric. This property *does* currently consider the SurrogateKey field to be numeric, although some users of the property may want to ignore it. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
IsPerson | Denotes whether the field is a person field type. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
IsString | Returns whether the field is a database string type. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
Length | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
Name | (Inherited from NamedItem.) |
![]() |
NameColumn | This is used for Dimension Fields: the name of the NameColumn for this item in the Cube. Null or Empty String indicates no special NameColumn. |
![]() |
Persistent | Fields such as parent keys can be non-persistent to enable passing them to sprocs for lookup purposes without actually persisting them. Defaults to true. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
RelationalOnly | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
SourceField | The source of data for this field. This is used for Fact Fields - a fact field will give you a measure in measure group in the cube. This will be the source column in the DSV for this field. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
SqlDbType | Converts the string attribute Type to a SqlDbType. FUTURE: Change Type to be a SqlDbType. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
Translation | (Inherited from NamedItem.) |
![]() |
Type | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
![]() |
Visible | (Inherited from DataTypeItem.) |
