What is level based metrics?
Answer / madhu
Level based metrics means, having a measure pinned at a certain level of the dimension.
A LBM is a metric that is defined for a specific level or intersection of levels.
Monthly Total Sales or Quarterly Sales are the examples.
Ex: if you have a measure called “Dollars”, you can create a “Level Based Measure” called “Yearly Dollars” which is Dollars for a Year. This measure will always return the value for the year even if you drill down to a lower level like quarter, month, etc. To create a level based measure, create a new logical column based on the original measure (like Dollars in the example above). Drag and drop the new logical column to the appropriate level in the Dimension hierarchy in the above example you will drag and drop it to Year in Time Dim.
