PerformancePoint Dashboards: Using Named Sets as a Filter

Posted on November 24, 2010 by Kevin Carter

Named Sets are dimension members or set expressions that are created with reuse in mind. Many of these named sets would make great dashboard filters, but there is no easy way within PerformancePoint to easily make this happen.

For example, a client might want the “Last 5 Working Days”, or “Last Full Sales Cycle”. These sets would require a more complex MDX solution.
