Properties Window for Measure Items Axis

Time Range - This controls the type of measure items that you can set up for the view – either measure items with time ranges (Yes) or measure items without time ranges (No). Leave the property set to Yes if you want to work with measure items that have time ranges. Time hierarchies will not be available. Change the property to No if you want to work with measure items without time ranges and want to be able insert time hierarchies into the view. See also Time Ranges vs. Time Hierarchies for YTD, Trending, and Other Time Analysis.

Changing this property for existing views will impact existing measure items and time hierarchies.

  • Change from Yes to No = existing measure items will be removed. Then you can work with time hierarchies and measure items without time ranges.

  • Change from No to Yes = existing measure items and time hierarchies will be removed. Then you can work with measure items that have time ranges.  

Drilldown View - Assign a drilldown view if you want to drill from measure items to another view, for example, to a view with related or complimentary data to the originating view. Choose from views that you normally have access to in the application.
