how u create cubes in ur project..

Answer / rajdeep chatterjee

Cubes can be built by running the powerplay transformer
model (.mdl file). We need to define the dimensions and
measures in the transformer model, need to mention the
sources (.iqd file, .xls file etc.) and need to provide the
cube name and path. Then we can build it manually as well
as it can be built using any third party scheduling tools.
