TDimensionItem.DerivedFrom Property

Specifies the index of a dimension item from which a derived value is calculated.

Pascal
property DerivedFrom: Integer;
C++
__property int DerivedFrom;

Read DerivedFrom to determine whether the dimension item represents a field from the dataset of its decision cube. Dimension items that represent averages do not come directly from the dataset, but are derived from count and summary fields that appear in the dataset. When a derived average dimension item is created, DerivedFrom is set to the index of the count or summary dimension item. The corresponding summary or count dimension item is located by matching the BaseName property when the derived values are calculated.
