The set is fundamental in MDX. Each axis is composed of a set of tuples. The slicer condition (WHERE clause) is a set (usually with just one tuple). This section does not describe how to map every set value expression. For illustration purposes, it does present a limited number of topics to convey the concepts, which will help with mappings optimized for your SQL implementations.
The following topics provide introductory information about the process:
- Tables and Sets
- Literal Sets
And the topics below provide information about converting a set expression into a table:
- UNION Function
- EXCEPT Function
- INTERSECT Function
- CROSSJOIN Function
- HIERARCHIZE Function
