Define “composite views” from 2 different cubes in the same grid in PAW

We have a large planning cube that has 350+ users capturing planning data on a product level based on insights gained from both string and numeric measures. Based on IBM's best practice, string measures should be removed from the planning cube if dimension reordering is required. If the string measures are moved into a separate cube, functionality is lost from the users perspective as they now need to scroll on 2 separate views.

We are currently reviewing all options to increase performance and dimension re-ordering has indicated that the cube can be optimised by 40 to 50% if string measures are removed and dimensions re-ordered.

    Updates status of idea to future consideration.

    This remains a use case for Websheets. We do have interesting in addressing this use case directly in Planning Analytics Workspace. However, this is not a part of our 2021 Planning Analytics roadmap. We may revisit this request at a later date.

    I can suggest that bringing feature of combining data from two cubes with one web widget on PAW will resolve this and bring very handful feature to Planning analytics where we can separate cubes in back as modeling BP without worring about how to show in UI.
