Re-order Dimensions on a Cube via a Turbo Integrator Function

We have systemised approaches to building cubes and dimensions within Planning Analytics, this includes automatically building cubes from source systems and adding dimensions to cube after they have been built.

Unfortunately when rebuilding these cubes they default back to their unoptimised state, and can consume considerably more RAM.

It would be great if we could perform a "System" cube re-order, which automatically reordered the dimensions in the cube, or a "User" cube re-order which had parameters for the dimension order.

New function CubeDimensionOrderSystem(CubeName);  or  CubeDimensionOrderUser(CubeName, d1, d2 [,...dn]);

    We have created an API solution to reorder the dimensions, however our logic for working out the desired order has some flaws, and sometimes it reorders the cubes in a negitive way.

    Are you able to share how the "system" feature works out the desired order.

    We have cubes with upward of 60 dimensions, so trying to manually reorder these cubes is not a desired outcome.

    This idea is not under consideration. IBM will continue to monitor for votes and comments and may reevaluate the idea at a later date.

    Note that it's possible to use the ODATA API call to reorder dimensions. With the use of an automation service that can make API calls it should be possible to programmatically update the system order of dimensions in a cube.
