what is the difference between aggregate table and fact
table ? how do you load these two tables ?

Answer Posted / santosh

The difference that i know is that the aggregate tables
contain only the summaries of the data where as the fact
tables contain summaries and measures. i.e.,the grain of
the data present in fact table is more than the grain of
the data present in aggregate tables.
