The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services

BUG #: 11969 (Plato7.x)

SYMPTOMS

Attempting to change the Members With Data property to non-leaf data hidden in a Parent-Child dimension may produce incorrect results for different levels when unary operators are involved.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (the Analysis Services Components - Sql2kasp1.exe). For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services version 8.0. This problem was first corrected in the Analysis Services Components of Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 1.

MORE INFORMATION

If a Parent-Child dimension has no unary operators, or if all unary operators are "+", the non-leaf data hidden member is included in the total aggregation along with the children members, which produces the correct result. However, if any of the descendant members with non-leaf data hidden has a unary operator other than "+", the non-leaf hidden data member is not included in the total aggregation and produces the wrong result.
