Answer / madhu

We Merge to data providers to make them compatable and
present columns from both DP's in the report.We do that by
using Merge Dimension in XI 3.1 and Link to option in Data
Manager Tab till XIR2.
We need a common dimension to do soo..
If you try to merge with 2 uncommon dimensions the results
will be in acurate and the Data providers will be
incompatable when you try to place them in the report.
