Fact table method for this scenario

dmohanty — Sat, 24 Jan 2015 02:27:25 GMT

Hi All,

I need to build a fact table for below scenario. Please guide me.

In QV GUI, need to show two tabs (below image) :
- 1st tab holds One Month Data (Current Month - 1) : Aggregated at Month Level
- 2nd tab holds 12 Months data : Detailed at Date level

For 1st tab: I am able to fetch the Data for first tab from the QVD using script calculation and store as one month QVD (aggregated at Month Level).
For 2nd tab: 12 QVDs ( for 12 months) are stored and concatenated into one QVD. I am able to do this. (The reason for storing it as 12 QVDs, just to store the snapshot/locked records, there would be no change to records).

Now the target to merge the 2 QVDs (structure of both QVDs are same) into one Fact table. What would be the correct approach for this, so that in report I can easily show the distinguished data?

Regards!

concatenate the 2 tables adding a field to distinguish them

then use set analysis to filter the different tables depending on tab

maybe this can help you (also look for generic key in community)
