Micro Strategy Interview Question:

Difference between standard, absolute and ignore condition in metrics?

Submitted by: Administrator

Standard filtering allows the report filter to affect the
metric.

Absolute filtering raises the report filter to the level of
the target, so all subcategories in the categories included
on the report are added together.

Ignore filtering disregards filtering criteria based on the
attribute in the target and its related attributes (both
parents and children).
