In Microstrategy, how can you direct the sql generated to use a specifc table?..

Answer / preeja

if it is required for metric to calculate from a particular
table in report, you can try changing the "level" in the
merics.
or by using relationship filter also can direct to a
particular table ,based on the requirement.

modifying the logical table size is a good idea, but it can
affect all reports which depends on the attributes defined
on the same table.

Answer / sunil

Totally agree Preeja's answer...but when you have more then

It will create some problem in other reports.
