[SOLVED] Limit on drop down list in dimension of Olap report?
Hi,
When we click on the date dimension in our Olap report in UAT, it only shows the dates up to 2005 even though we know we have dates up to 2010.
Is there a limit on the number of rows that can be displayed in the drop down list?
Could it be an installation's limit in Olap?
Could it be an installation's limit either set in Oracle or the View.
We are using a simple Oracle View as the starting point for the Olap report. It has already joined sevaral tables together. It is not a Materialised View.
Thanks in advance.

Up to 768 the limit on number of unique values in an OLAP drop down was 500 values. In 769 (and maybe in a hotfix 768 hotfix) we bumped that to 5000 values.

Does that explain the limit you have?

Thank you, Brian.
Our version is V766 so that means we are limited by that 500 values. I will pass it on to our team members.
