Calculated Members

Calculated members may be defined either within the MDX SELECT statement (in the DEFINE clause) or may be defined on the SESSION scope using the CREATE MEMBER statement. The syntax for these statements is described in Appendix A.

Note   Calculated members are not persisted as part of the cube. Therefore it is the responsibility of the client application to persist the definition of the calculated members and manage the instantiation of those members for each new session with the cube.
