Summary


In this chapter you learned two types of subset dimensions. The month subset dimension is an example of a roll-up dimension, which is a higher level dimension populated from its more detailed base dimension. The PA customer is a specific subset dimension; populated from its base dimension by selecting PA customers only.

In the next chapter, you learn another technique of reusing an existing dimension, called role-playing dimension
