how u create cubes in ur project..

Answer / rajdeep chatterjee

Cubes can be built by running the powerplay transformer
model (.mdl file). We need to define the dimensions and
measures in the transformer model, need to mention the
sources (.iqd file, .xls file etc.) and need to provide the
cube name and path. Then we can build it manually as well
as it can be built using any third party scheduling tools.

Can someone tell me whether we can apply filter on list of values in the 'Value Prompt'? e.g. I have a value prompt (named city) and the prompting is holding around 2000 cities but I want to apply filters on cities so users can select only 15 cities out of 2000 and then run the report. Users should be flexible enought to select any 15 cities from the list. Is it possible. Please advice!
