Problem Note 40077: MDX to-date functions might return incorrect values when used with other calculated members
If a calculated member exists on the Time dimension and is used with an MDX to-date function (such as YTD, MTD, and PeriodsToDate), the resulting value might be incorrect.
For example, here's a query that has a calculated member for Time that is at the Quarter level:
WITH
MEMBER [Time].[All Time].[1993].[myaggr] as AGGREGATE([Time].[All Time].[1993].[2])
MEMBER [Measures].[Set] AS SetToStr(YTD(time.currentmember))
SELECT
NON EMPTY {[Measures].[Set]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY [Time].[All Time].[1993].[myaggr] ON ROWS
FROM [SalesCube]
|
The YTD function will return all four quarters of 1993 rather than the empty set that is expected.
