Hi,
in my fact table there is a date in this format "21.1.2009 0:00:00"
and I want create a time dimension.
I can split the date into day, month, year, but the question is, how to add a foreign key to the fact table.
Does anybody have an example how to add a time dimension table and add a foreign key to the fact table???
Cheers

usually the key that we use for time dimension will represent the date itself i.e like 20090121 for 21.1.2009
