Defining Cubes in Microsoft Dynamics AX

A cube is defined by its measures and dimensions. You can specify measures and dimensions at different levels and on different objects in the Application Object Tree (AOT) using the Business Intelligence properties that appear in the Properties sheet. A perspective is used to identify the tables that contain the measures and dimensions for a cube. This section describes how to specify measures and dimensions for a cube in Microsoft Dynamics AX and how to create a perspective for a cube.
