Thank you for your feedback
Note:
You can delete one dimension at a time.
In Practice
- In SpotlightXL, go to Model > Setup.
- The model must be in a non-generated state. Click Modify Model. The dimensions associated with the model are displayed.
- Delete the required dimension.
- When asked if you want to delete the selected item, click Yes.
Note:
If there is a formula defined on the dimension that is being deleted then that formula will be deleted when the dimension is deleted. Delete dimension will adjust all dependent artifacts of the model (for example; Map, Formula, Scope, Views, Reports) so that they all become available for usage once the dimension is deleted, however, it is recommended that a Power user validates key artifacts and make necessary changes if needed. Deleting a dimension will not make any changes to the Calculations defined on the model. Power users have to review the calculations and make necessary changes if needed.
