Cube Reference

This is for sharing Cubes through Extensible Dimensionality ®.  Multiple Cubes can be linked together and extended for different purposes. See Entity Dimension for more details. These options appear in a Top-Level Cube for Workflow where there are references in the assigned Entity Dimension to other Entity Dimensions. In the example below for the GolfStream Cube, the CorpEntities Dimension have references to the five other Entity Dimensions following it. Therefore, in this example, the GolfStream Cube needs to be told which Cube to find data for those other Entity Dimensions.

GolfStream acts as a Super-Cube that consolidates data from five other Cubes because the Houston Entity and its children are referenced within the CorpEntities Dimension and the Cube References are updated to point to the Houston Cube for their data (shown below).
