Show Attributes of an Item

If the data source you use contains attributes, you can show the attributes in the item label to provide more detail about items in the crosstab.

Not all data sources contain attributes. It is common to have attributes in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) data sources.

You can also use the Information pane to see the attributes of an item.

You cannot show attributes when the set contains a single member. If you want to show the attributes of a single member set, you must add at least one more member to the analysis, show attributes, and then remove the unwanted members.

Procedure

  1. Select a set.
  2. Right-click the set and click Show Attributes.
  3. Click the attributes that you want to show in the item label.
    Tip: To view attributes in a selection-based set that contains multiple levels, click the level name. The attributes for all items at that level in the crosstab appear.
