Create calculation views to provides composites of other views. You can classify
calculation views as script-based calculation view or graphical calculation view
They can be used in the same way as analytic views; however, in contrast to analytic views,
it is possible to join several fact tables in a calculation view.
Set to Cube - if you want to define a calculation view that is visible in the
multidimensional reporting tools.
Set to Dimension - The view is not available for multidimensional reporting and is
only consumable via SQL.
Calculation views can include measures and be used for multidimensional reporting or
can
contain no measures and used for list-type reporting.
We can use Attribute View, Analytical View, Database Tables , Column Views in creating
