Slice Element (ASSL)

Contains a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) expression defining the slice contained in a partition.

Syntax

  
<Partition>  
      ...  
   <Slice>...</Slice>  
   ...  
</Partition>  

Element Characteristics

Characteristic Description
Data type and length String
Default value None
Cardinality 0-1: Optional element that can occur once and only once.

Element Relationships

Relationship Element
Parent element Partition
Child elements None

Remarks

The Slice element contains an MDX tuple expression or set expression that identifies the portion of the cube for which the partition stores information. The MDX expression is similar to the StrToSet MDX function with the CONSTRAINED keyword, in that the expression cannot include MDX or user-defined functions.

The element that corresponds to the parent of Slice in the Analysis Management Objects (AMO) object model is xref:Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Partition.
