Creating and Maintaining Actions in Virtual Cubes

You can both import actions into virtual cubes from their component cubes and create new actions directly in virtual cubes. You can use the Action Wizard to create and edit actions in virtual cubes.

Use Virtual Cube Editor to maintain the actions in a virtual cube. Virtual Cube Editor provides single-click access to the Action Wizard and the Import Actions dialog box, which is used to import actions into virtual cubes.

Note  Virtual Cube Editor is used for maintaining actions in virtual cubes only. To maintain actions in regular cubes, use Cube Editor. From Cube Editor you can access the Action Wizard.

For more information, see Virtual Cube Editor.
