  • 0

I have two queries which I would like to join together,which would give me the calculated total of the row. The problem I have is that although the measures are from 1 fact table the Squad names are in two role playing dimensions. I’m extremely new to MDX.

The outcome would be something like 

 | Competition    | Squad   | Goals A | Goals B | Total (Goals A + Goals B)|
 |----------------|---------|---------|---------|--------------------------|
 | Premier League | Arsenal | 25      | 15      | 40                       |

Thanks in advance.

Query1:

([Measures].[Goals A]) ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY ([Dim Competition].[Hierarchy].[Competition ID],[Squad A].[Squad Name].ALLMEMBERS) ON ROWS
FROM 
[FDC Star]
WHERE [Dim Competition].[Competition ID].&[1];

Query1 result:

Competition     Squad                 Goals A
