Returns a generation number or level number.
Ordinal ( layer )
| layer | A layer specification for which to determine the ordinal. |
The following example prints generation number and level number for each
member in the Product dimension. The value of calculated member [ProdGen]
is a generation number because the input argument to the Ordinal function is a generation.
The value of calculated member [ProdLev]
is a level number because the input argument to the Ordinal function is a level.
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[ProdGen] AS
'Ordinal([Product].CurrentMember.Generation)'
MEMBER [Measures].[ProdLev] AS
'Ordinal([Product].CurrentMember.Level)'
SELECT
{[ProdGen], [ProdLev]} ON COLUMNS,
[Product].Members ON ROWS
FROM Sample.Basic
This query returns the following grid:
| ProdGen | ProdLev | |
|---|---|---|
| Product | 3 | 0 |
| 100 | 2 | 1 |
| 100-10 | 3 | 0 |
