I have a cube that contains a fact table that has three date dimensionID's (FK) in it. Names are like StartDateID, ProjectedEndDateID, ForecastedEndDateID. These all are referenced to the dDate_id in the Date dimension table. Metrics in the fact table pertain to integer values that measure the number of customers that are somewhere in our Sales Process. An example might be how many customers were called during a Sales Campaign.

All Sales Campaigns have Start dates, Projected end dates, and forecasted end dates.

I have no problem creating any of the dimensions (can browse the data). And I have no problem creating and processing the cube. I do however, have a problem when I go to browse the data - there is none!

I have narrowed the problem down to the FK's for the Date dimension that exist in the fact table. If I have only one date (either start, forecasted or projected) all the metrics show up.

So how can I diplay all the dates and still maintain the metrics? And why is this a problem?

The OLAP services and SQL Server all have sp3 installed and I have administrative priviledges to both.

Any answers are most welcome and appreciated.  

I'm tring to picture what you have so I appologize if I am asking pointless questions.

in you fact table you have three columns similiar in apperance to the following:

StartDateID   ProjectedDateID   ForcastDateID
-----------   ---------------   -------------
23            45                51

In your cube you have 3 seperate time dimensions, A multiple hierarchy Time dimension or a single Time dimension?

Single Time dimension, some of the attributes for the Time dimension are:

dDate_id dDate_date dDate_DayOfWeek dDate_day dDate_month....  

StartDateID, ProjectedDateID and ForecastedDateID all are FK in the fact table that are related to the dDate_id (PK) in the dDate time dimension table.

Thanks for the reply.
