Calculation for c-elements for numeric attributes in }attributes_cubes

Hello, 

we need the same calculation possibility for numeric attributes for the c-elements in the attributes cubes as it functions for the normal cubes for c-elements. 

For now you get a zero for your c-Element, even if there are figures at n-elements at numeric attributes. 
You can already use the CellPutN-function to put the numeric values to the attribute. We need also the CellIncrementN-function for the attribute cubes. 

Thank you in advance. 

With best regards, 
Vitalij

    Hello Stuart,

    I think, a c-type-rule can be used in an attribute cube.
    what we need, is the hierarchy calculation for c-elements in the attribute cube and for now it is not possible, for the reason that the numeric attribute is not seen as a "normal" numeric attribute, but a string.

    With the CellIncrementN - function, for now it is used as a CellPutN-function for the attribute cubes and it would be nice to get the real result, it means, the incrementing of values, but you are writing that you will have to create a new function for the attributge cubes, yes?


    I added a small example:
    dimension DB_Fuhrpark with some elements and sum-element and also a numeric attribute "Numeric".

    For the c-Element in this dimension I don't get the "sum", although the weight is 1 for each element. At the normal cube, you would get the sum automatically.

    At the 3. screen I have the attribute cube again with the calculated element and the sum, so for the calculated element there is no problem. And it would be nice to get the sum also for the normal c-element. I don't know if it is technically possible or easy to get.

    Thanks in advance.

    With best regards,

    Vitalij
