=> Determinants reflect granularity by representing subsets or groups of data in a query subject and used to ensure correct aggregation of this repeated data.
=> Determinants are most closely related to the concept of keys and indexes in the data source and are imported based on unique key and index information in the data source.
=> By modifying Determinants, you can override the index and key information in your data source,replacing it with information that is better aligned with your reporting and analysis needs.
