Measures enrich datasets. You can manually create them at any time directly from a
column or dimension or by using the formula language to create a calculated measure, or you
can allow the application to detect them automatically on numeric column data types when a
dataset is acquired.
Note When using a Connect to SAP HANA data source, it is not
possible to create a measure with a numeric or string dimension. Measures in
Connect to SAP HANA data sources are detected directly
from the SAP HANA Analytic view. Measures must be created in the
SAP HANA view, before being acquired automatically in the
application.
Note When using a Connect to SAP HANA data source, it is not
possible to change the aggregation type of a measure.
