Once you have familiarized yourself with the creation of the following three dimensions, you are ready to start creating our first Cube.
SSAS Series-Custom Date dimension design
SSAS Series-Dimension design based on snowflake model
SSAS series-about the design of parent-child dimensions
We'll use the following scripts to create some dimension tables and fact tables with the source of AdventureWorksDW2012, but because there are so many data columns, I've streamlined some tables and customized the Dimdate tables.
