Creating Models

To create an OLAP DML model, take the following steps:

  1. Issue a DEFINE MODEL statement to define the program object.

  2. Add a specification to the model to specify the processing that you want performed as described in MODEL.

  3. Compile the model as described in "Compiling Models".

  4. (Optional) If necessary, change the settings of model options listed in Table: Model Options.

  5. Execute the model as described in "Running a Model".

  6. Debug the model as described in "Debugging a Model".

  7. When you want the model to be a permanent part of the analytic workspace, save the model using an UPDATE statement followed by COMMIT.

For an example of creating a model, see "Creating a Model".
