Import Size problem - SQL Server Analysis Services Database

Hi,

 

I have the problem that the system doesn't import the full data and I think its because of the import size. 

Also I tried to import with less elements and then I saw more data in the system.

 

Is it possible to set a filter on the elements before the import because I have a date element with 8 years but I only need 3 years in the analyse?!

 

 

Data source type: SQL Server Analysis Services Database

Connect: Import - not Live connection

Hi @davor_adl

 

I've experienced this issue before and the best option is to create a view of your table on your server

Create a view for the last 3 years and then import it.
