Explain in Detail about Measure Objects? and what is the use of it? How to create it?..

Answer / preetham

Measure objects are meant to define and retrieve the
numeric data. Example : If we want to retrieve the data of
country wise sales revenue. We have to create any measure
object(name it 'Sales') throgh right click in universe pane
> double click the object > define as measure property,
give select statement with facts measure and click OK.

Now, If you run query against country and sales. We will
get data form the report level showing the sales in
numerical data that exist. So Without assigning the measure
object with the select statement of fact measure, we cannot
get sales value.
