What is a Formula?
• User-defined members are created with formulas• Formulas use Necto’s predefined formulas or MDX functions to create
members• Members in the grid can be dragged into the formula definition• Formulas can use dynamic parameters

Formula Location• Formulas are available under the “View” category in the ribbon bar
