Question

Cube View sum of columns sums only values from column with first child

Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue with a cube view. I have a column whose parameter is E#GroupEntity.Base. When launched, it shows one base entity per column, with its respective data.
I need to place a new column at the end of the cube view that sums the values of all the base entities. I tried to use the CVC function to sum columns, but it only sums the data of first base entity, ignoring all the other base entities.

Is there a way to achieve what I need, and if yes, could someone please help me? 

Thank you!

No need to calculate columns.  The total is already in your cube. 

Add a second column after your E#GroupEntity.Base column called GroupEntity Total.
Use member filter E#GroupEntity.Name(GroupEntity Total)
The .Name(GroupEntity Total) part puts "GroupEntity Total" as the column header for your total.  You can change that to anything you want.

Hi Robb,

thank you for your answer. You are right that I could just consider the GroupEntity in a separate column, the problem is that I'm looking to show the value of total eliminations for the whole group, and there seems to be a constraint between the E#GroupEntity and the C#Elimination members.

My idea was therefore to create a hidden column showing the Elimination values for all entities, and showing their sum in a separate col
