Answer / preeja
if it is required for metric to calculate from a particular
table in report, you can try changing the "level" in the
merics.
or by using relationship filter also can direct to a
particular table ,based on the requirement.
modifying the logical table size is a good idea, but it can
affect all reports which depends on the attributes defined
on the same table.

Totally agree Preeja's answer...but when you have more then
one fact table and they all are hitting some other attribute
you will have take VLDB prop under consideration.
changing the logical size never recommended unless you full knowledge of architect and expertise.
It will create some problem in other reports.
