GETATTR
Syntax
GETATTR(DimName, ElemName, ATabID,
FieldName)
DimName
is the name of the dimension
containing the attribute table. ElemName
is the element
the attribute is attached to. ATabID
is the ID of the
attribute table containing the attributes. FieldName
is
the name of the column in the attribute table containing the attributes.
Example
If the APRODUCT field for the Car Tires Summer element in attribute table 1 of the Product dimension contains the text "Tanja.Saarbruecken@Genesis.com" then:
GETATTR('Product', 'Car Tires Summer', 1,
'APRODUCT')
Returns Tanja.Saarbruecken@Genesis.com.
The GETATTR
function is analogous to
an external cube reference in a cube rule. For example, if you want to write the above rule
as a rule for all products, you substitute !Products
for
Car Tires Summer
in the second argument of the
function.
