Cube View row member expansion

Hi, We have a cube view with 4 levels of Row expansions UD1, UD2, UD3 and UD4 (Currency). We need to add 2 more levels for UD5 and UD6. Is there any way we can have 6 levels of Row expansions in Cu...

Hi Madesh

You can use the cubeview Header Overrides section to define up to 6 nested dimensions independent from the nested member expansions:

    ChristianW, does this allow you to select more than four dimensions on rows. I'm not sure whether that is what OP is looking for. I get that this one shows the header of the other two dimensions in POV.

      For every level on rows (4) or columns (2) you can specify more than one dimension type, you are not limited to the selected one. But only the selected dimension type is dynamic and can be used with list functions like .base or .tree. As a work around, you can create a xfbr function that creates comma separated lists of concatenated members in a scripts and with this, you can extend the row level limit beyond 4. With the Header overrides, you can show these members in the header independent from the selected dimension types in the rows or columns. If you need more than 6, you can works with name().

        I think (I could be imagining this) there was a limit on using an XFBR and an expanded list (I tried it once, and it was a ginormous list), and I got an error while opening it. Or it was something else, and I can't remember it. However, I'm still not convinced why someone will need such a big cube view.
