We use Excel to browse a SSAS cube on our intranet. The cube is located on SQL Server 2012. The users are not very familiar with pivot-tables.
The cube has a lot of dimensions. We would like it to come up with a set of standard dimensions in Excel when it is opened for the first time. The user can click on an odc file but then he has to decide the layout of dimensions, filters and measures himself. How can a predefined first layout that comes up automatically be implemented? ?
A VBA macro can be used to select dimensions, measures and filters. Can the VBA macro be incorporated in the .odc file? If so, how is this done?
Any other suggestions to achieve standardisation will be appreciated.
