I have a calculated measure [Qty on hand] in my cube to emulate LastNonempty function for semi additive measures in Standard edition. Excel 2013 is a front end tool for the users. Here is calculated measure formula:
CREATE MEMBER CURRENTCUBE.[MEASURES].[QtyOnHand]
AS ([measures].[_Qty on Hand],
TAIL(Nonempty(existing[DateTime].[Date].[Date].Members,[measures].[_Qty on Hand]),1).Item(0))
1. Excel pivot (SKU#, Qty on Hand) does not calculate totals correctly:Totals show 10 but it should be 0. How to tweak Pivot table options or calculated member to get correct totals?

2. Another issue is that Excel 2013 does not show detail for OLAP calculated measures (from cube)? I'm not able to get detail on SKU# if I group by Brand id then try to dig to SKU#. I'm getting all groups collapsed and no Expand option for Row fields - Brand and SKU No - as shown here:
| Qty On Hand | Column Labels | ||
| Row Labels | October 2013 | November 2013 | Grand Total |
| Grand Total | 10 | 9 | 9 |
If Iremove SKU No, then I'll get to see Brand (ALIA). But when I try "Show Detail" on 10 Excel saying that he cannot show details on calculated cell. Is there a way to dig to SKU#?
Qty On Hand | Column Labels | ||
Row Labels | October 2013 | November 2013 | Grand Total |
ALIA | 10 | 9 | 9 |
Grand Total | 10 | 9 | 9 |
3. last and least, is that my 3 poor calculated measures slows down Excel and cube significantly. Is there a good way to tune cube or the measures up?
