What defines a HansaWorld data cube ?
...
Essential
Essential data that will be connected to create data cube and start analysing.
...
Main data source of data that belongs to this Data cube. For example: HansaWorld Invoices main register is Invoices, For for HansaWorld Financials Financials - Transactions. See full list below. Main register values will be stored in Measure Dimension. Values are stored in currencies that is defined in your base currency setting and have Item and record level measures. You can read more about it here - HansaWorld record and item level measures
...
Support registers
While main data source registers add all the numbers to the data cubes they only contain codes for all the information. To add full names and descriptions for all the information support registers need to be added. Some examples of support registers are Customers (CUVc), Persons (UserVc) and Items (INVc).
Optional
Optional registers and measures that you can connect will add other extra Measure values connected to main data cube register, give names to members and create properties that you can use in data filtering and sorting.
Optional registers contain extra values that can be added to Measures dimension based on some specific register in HansaWorld. For example, Invoice Balance (Invoices), Item Status (Stock).
Shared measures
If you are importing multiple cubes in one account then flex.bi automatically shares some of the measures between different data cubes. You can use some support register that is common for different data cubes and using shared measures see the information combined in one report. For example, both Invoices (IVVc) and POS (IVCashVc) registers contain items so you can have a report that shows the total of Invoices and POS sales combined.
Extra dimensions
Please see HansaWorld Extra dimension (importing objects, classifications, varieties) page for more information.

| Extra Measure registers | Optional registers contain extra values that can be added to Measures dimension based on some specific register in HansaWorld. For example, Invoice Balance ( Invoices ) , Item Status ( Stock) | |
Data Filters | Optional registers are all the rest that you decide to import and would like to use in your reports as measures or filters. | |

| Shared Measures | In HansaWorld ERP typically you can create reports based on current modules data, in Flex.bi - data can be mixed together from different data cubes as long as they makes sense and have valid connection. Those are called Shared Measures.||
