To define the members display

Context

Members can be displayed as key, text or both. For texts, you can define which text should be displayed.

Key, text and short text of a dimension and its members is set during creation in SAP NetWeaver BW. In the query definition, you can define the member display that should be used as default. In Analysis, you can define the member display for each dimension.

The defintion of the member display does not affect the totals and subtotals in your analysis.

Select a member cell of a dimension to define the display for all members of this dimension.
Choose Members and the display option you want to use. You can select the following display options:
- Text: The members are displayed with their text.
- Key: The members are displayed with their key.
- Text and key: The members are displayed with their text and key.
- Key and text: The members are displayed with their key and text.
If you select a display option that contains text, you can choose between two display options for the text. Choose Members and one of the following options:
- Short Text: The short text for the members is used for the text display.
- Text: The text for the members is used for the text display.
Select the Access Mode for the dimension to define which members should be displayed in the crosstab.

Note The Access Mode option is only available if you select the check box Allow Access Mode to be Changed in the Advanced Settings dialog.
For HANA data sources, the Access Mode option is not available.
