Title: Creating a single cross tab report based on 2 cubes
Post by: cognos05 on 15 Feb 2016 10:05:51 AM
I have 2  cubes one with Sales for X product category and other cube with Sales with Y product Category.

Crosstab 1

                      Sales   Product X
Customers


CorssTab2
                     Sales   Product Y
Customers

I just need one craoostab report,
                     Sales on ProductX   Sales on Product Y
Customers

How do I achieve this in single crosstab report.

Thanks,
Nithya

Hi,

You're going to need a single cube that contains all the required data here.

What if I dont show the products in column and instead show total prod X and total prod Y. Customers are still same right ?

Hi,

Although they might have the same captions, the customer members in each cube will have different Member Unique Names (MUNs), so they are not the same under the covers.
