Introduction to Dimension Security in SQL Server Analysis Services SSAS 2005

  • Article

I have seen the tip Dynamically Control Data Filtering in SQL Server Reporting Services Reports which showed how to leverage a SQL Server database table to filter sales data based on the user running the report. I have a similar requirement to implement dynamic filtering except my data is in a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) cube and the users query the data with a variety of different tools. How can I implement dynamic security in my case?

How To Enable User-Defined Hierarchies in SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS)

  • Article

I have a requirement to provide users with the capability to define their own reporting hierarchies for sales data. For instance they had a report which broke down sales by the four regional VPs then by office. Later they created regions, assigned VPs to each region, then assigned offices to each VP. Now they want to be able to create a number of other scenarios and choose which one when they run a report. Can you provide some suggestions on how to do this?
