Example
In this example, the TM1 server name is Planning Sample. The function writes Jane Smithers to the Manager attribute of the UK member of the business_unit dimension.DBSA("1.8", "SData:Model", "L Series 1.8 L Sedan", "Engine Size")Example
In this example, the TM1 server name is SData. The function writes 1.8 to the Engine Size attribute of the L Series 1.8 L Sedan member of the Model dimension. The value, 1.8, is in double quotation marks because the Engine Size attribute is a text attribute. If the data type of the Engine Size parameter was Numeric, the function would be:DBSA(1.8, "SData:model", "L Series 1.8 L Sedan", "Engine Size")
