All Load Jobs processes

The processes are:

  1. Load Dimension
  2. Create Cube
  3. Load Facts
  4. Set Cube Properties
  5. Set Dimension Properties
  6. Fill Dimension Attributes
  7. Set Cube Rules
  8. Load Subsets
  9. Clear Cube Region
  10. Delete Dimension
  11. Delete Cube
  12. Set Dimension Level Names
  13. Load Dimension / Create DAC
  14. Load Elements
  15. Set Attribute Driven Hierarchies

For example, you can set an existing dimension's properties. This is job type 5. But if a dimension is being created, setting its properties is done automatically during the dimension load process. The properties are read from the dimension's metadata in the _Dimensions table and loaded into the dimension in the OLAP database after it is created. There are other peripheral processes that loading a dimension invokes. These are listed in the "Process Dependencies" section.
