Properties

	Name	Description
	AdjustTimeZone	Whether to apply UTCToWarehouseTime conversions to the field. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	AggregationFunction	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	AttributeHierarchyEnabled	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	ComputedExpression	If the field is a computed column, this will contain the expression to determine the column
	DisplayFolderName	The name of the Display Folder for this item in the Cube. Null or Empty String indicates no folder. Currently Display Folders are not translated. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	FormatString	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	FriendlyName	The Friendly Name. (Inherited from NamedItem.)
	GenerateETL	Should this field be included in the auto-generated ETL for the relational warehouse? If it is not included it will not be in the autogenerated stored procedures. Any fields included in the stored procedures must be assigned a value when the stored procedure is called otherwise the row will will be updated to have NULL for that value. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	IncludeInRelationalInterface	Include this field in the autogenerated Relational Interface (that is Fact Views). Default Value: True (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	InstanceSelection	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	IsComputed	Whether this field is computed or not
	IsNumeric	Returns whether the field is "logically numeric". Currently person fields are stored by using integer SK fields, but this property does not consider them numeric. This property does currently consider the SurrogateKey field to be numeric, although some users of the property may want to ignore it. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	IsPerson	Denotes whether the field is a person field type. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	IsString	Returns whether the field is a database string type. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	Length	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	Name	(Inherited from NamedItem.)
	NameColumn	This is used for Dimension Fields: the name of the NameColumn for this item in the Cube. Null or Empty String indicates no special NameColumn.
	Persistent	Fields such as parent keys can be non-persistent to enable passing them to sprocs for lookup purposes without actually persisting them. Defaults to true. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	RelationalOnly	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	SourceField	The source of data for this field. This is used for Fact Fields - a fact field will give you a measure in measure group in the cube. This will be the source column in the DSV for this field. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	SqlDbType	Converts the string attribute Type to a SqlDbType. FUTURE: Change Type to be a SqlDbType. (Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	Translation	(Inherited from NamedItem.)
	Type	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	Visible	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Clone	(Inherited from CloneableItem.)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsWellFormed	(Inherited from DataTypeItem.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ShouldSerializeTranslation	(Inherited from NamedItem.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
