Hi everyone,

Has anyone done any OLAP cubes for cost of sales analysis/reports?  I am
considering doing this for a customer and am just wondering if there is any
potential dangers/risks?

>From what I can see there is an 'OLAPCostValue' on the custinvoicelines
table.  Can I use this field and if so is there any extra step I need to do
(i.e. is this field populated by normal invoice update and inventory
closing).

I plan to make the cubes directly in SQL (as the customer does not have the
Business Analysis module) and so I believe there is some challenges to
getting the cost per invoice line (since this is a method rather than actual
field).  Should I think about first creating a view in Axapta and then using
that to make my cube (e.g. I have not really used views but I guess I can
use Axapta methods to get a cost in the view but in a direct SQL to the view
will such a cost field exist and be already populated?)

I look forward to hearing your experience and advice
Thanks
James
