No Values for a Measure in Some Dimensions
Values may be missing in IBM®
Cognos®
PowerPlay® because
- The source data lacks values for the measure. IBM Cognos Transformer writes the value 0 to the cube.
- The measure applies only to a portion of a dimension. Transformer does not allocate the measure to lower levels.
Ask the administrator to try these remedies:
- Clean the source data so that records with missing values are excluded from the query.
- Omit the measure from the cube if it is not necessary.
- Allocate the measure values to lower levels either proportionally, based on other measure values, or as a constant value. If you allocate as a constant, note that the same value appears in all cells of a crosstab for the categories to which you allocated the constant value.
