Hi,
How to refresh data for a day in a cube. I want to do this without deleting
the records from the fact tables for the specified day.

Hi

One way is to have daily partitions on the cube so that
you have a control on what to delete/maintain on the cube
over the Relational side. This way you could refresh the
desired partition.


Best,
Lakshman.

You do this with an incremental build of the cube... You must be able to
write a sql expression which identifies WHICH rows in the fact table are
new. If you allow rows to come in twice your cube data will be inaccurate.
