Default selecting of attribute in Dimension

Line Dalgas Erichsen ·

Hi,

Does anyone know how to choose another default selection of an attribute when just clicking on the dimension heading?

 

Example: I have af dimension (with several attributes) called Customer. When i click at 'Customer' Targit chooses 'CustomerName' as default attribute. I need to change this CustomerName to another attribute. 

For your information, the underlying cube is a tabular cube made in Tabular Editor. 

Thank you in advance. 

 

Regards Line

    Hi Line

    You can't currently decide that from the TARGIT client.

    It could, however, be a great feature request - please feel free to suggest it here: https://community.targit.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/7278561562141-Feature-requests-Ideas

    Hi Niels Thomsen, 

    Thank you for your response.

    Do you know what the logic behind the default is then? Is it just randomely which become the default attribute?

    Normally - if nothing is done in the backend - TARGIT will select the first attribute (or first hierarchy) in the given dimension (like shown below).


    In OLAP cubes you have something called default hierarchies, which will override this. 
    I'm not familiar with such a setting in tabular models, but that could be due to my lack of knowledge.

    If it's okay with you, I will create a feature request on your behalf that suggests allowing a setting in TARGIT to decide this regardless of which backend you are using.
