Measure Folders Property Sheet: General tab

Measure folders group measures together so that they can be identified and accessed easily.

Name

A simple name.

To provide default labels, use an underscore for spaces; Analytic Workspace Manager provides initial capitals automatically. For example, global_enterprises generates the name GLOBAL_ENTERPRISES and the label Global Enterprises.

You cannot change the name after creating the folder.

ID

The fully qualified name.

This information appears on the property sheet after the measure has been created; it does not appear on the initial dialog box.

Short Label

A short descriptive name for display where space is limited, usually in mixed case.

Long Label

A long descriptive name for display, usually in mixed case.

Description

Additional descriptive text, which can include mixed case and spaces.

Available Measures

A list of measures defined in the analytic workspace that have not been moved to the Selected Dimensions list. Use the arrow keys to move measures between Available Measures and Selected Measures.

Selected Measures

A list of measures for the folder. OLAP querying tools will list these measures together in a named folder.
