With some members I only want to aggregate a certain percentage of the measures in the fact table. It would seem I need a custom member formula I know I need to create a column in the underlying dimension table to hold an MDX expression, but what is the syntax of the expression? I have tried (for example): H_Cons.&[27] * 0.33 and Measures.[value] *0.33 etc etc. All I get is #ERR when i browse the cube data post processing. I have found an example in the Foodmart database but it doesn't bear the slightest resemblence to what I am trying to do. Anyone got any ideas??? Maybe an example???
