What is named query in SSAS & how we create in SSAS?

A named query in SSAS is a SQL expression represented as a table. The user can define a SQL expression in a named query to select rows and columns that are returned from one or more tables.

A named query is like any other table in a data source view with rows and relationships, except that it is based on an expression and extend the relational schema of existing tables in a data source view without modifying the underlying data source.

Named queries can be used in series to split up a complex dimension table into smaller, simpler dimension tables for use in database dimensions.


Use Below steps to create named Queries.

1. Double-click the Bedrooms Named Calculation in the Customers table to open the Named Calculation dialog and copy the SQL text.
