Answer / harry
facts and dimensions are considered according to the
project requirement ,we cant say particular number ,its
depend upon the project environment ,if you want to know
more about fact and dimensions ,Cognos provides default GO
sale package by using that you will be able to get your
answer.
here are some facts and dimensions:
Dimensions are time, products, retailer type, activity
desc, sale staff, and retailer type, return reson, order

Hi Pinky....
To identify dimensions and fact tables we no need to have
real time exp. Just Assume few dimensions and think for
proper justifications according to ur Project.” But Stick
to Basic Concepts".
My Assumptions
Dimensions are Products, Location(Area),Time, Employees,
Retailers or Dealers, Inventory, Logistics.....etc
Fact (Measures)
Sales target, Returned Sales, Purchase Returns
Revenue, Quantity, gross profit, net income, losses,
margin, Fright, operational cost
unit cost, unit price...etc.
Good Luck
