Metrics nothing but measures here i want know how to identify metrics in fact table?

because every field in fact table is measure   so all are metrics ? or is there any another rules to findout metrics in fact as well as  in Dimension table also?

Hi,

It is general question related to DBMS..

measures are the quantitative or factual data that tell how much or how many. The information that you gather from analysis of the sales business process results in the following list of measures:

• Revenue
• Cost
• Units sold
• Net profit
