| data dimension | Datendimension (A specific node created in the hierarchical view of the Tracking Profile Editor as an immediate child of the specific tracking profile in order to describe a logical grouping or dimension of data. Each data dimension is uniquely named and is made up of one or many data fields) |

| dimension expression | Dimensionsausdruck (A valid Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) expression that returns a dimension) |
| dimension granularity | Dimensionsgranularität (" The lowest level available to a particular dimension in relation to a particular measure group. The "natural" or physical grain is always that of the key that joins the main dimension table to the primary fact table.") |
| dimension hierarchy | Dimensionshierarchie (A logical tree structure that organizes the members of a dimension such that each member has one parent member and zero or more child members) |
| dimension level | Dimensionsebene (The name of a set of members in a dimension hierarchy such that all members of the set are at the same distance from the root of the hierarchy. For example, a time hierarchy may contain the levels Year, Month, and Day) |
| dimension member | Dimensionselement (A single position or item in a dimension. Dimension members can be user-defined or predefined and can have properties associated with them) |
| dimension member property | Dimensionselementeigenschaft (A characteristic of a dimension member. Dimension member properties can be alphanumeric, Boolean, or Date/Time data types, and can be user-defined or predefined) |
| dimension set | Dimensionssatz (A named group of accounts or dimensions that contains either account values for the account or dimension values for a single dimension) |
| dimension table | Dimensionstabelle (A table in a data warehouse whose entries describe data in a fact table) |
| fact dimension | Faktendimension (A relationship between a dimension and a measure group in which the dimension main table is the same as the measure group table) |
| financial dimension | Finanzdimension (A financial data classifier created from the parties, locations, products, and activities in an organization and used for management reporting) |

| formatting dimension | Formatierungsdimension (The dimension that numeric formatting is applied to) |
| intercompany dimension | innerbetriebliche Dimension (A system-maintained dimension that consists of only those entities that are involved in intercompany transactions with other entities in the system) |
| item dimension | Artikeldimension (A classification used to describe an item's physical characteristics, physical location, or relationship to other items. For example, the item SHIRT can be classified by the dimensions COLOR, SIZE, and STYLE) |
| ledger dimension | Sachkontodimension (A classifier created from the combination of financial dimension values listed in a chart of accounts and used to classify the financial consequences of economic activity) |
| linked dimension | verknüpfte Dimension (A reference in a cube to a dimension in a different cube (that is, a cube with a different data source view that exists in the same or a different Analysis Services database). A linked dimension can only be related to measure groups in the source cube, and can only be edited in the source database) |
| many-to-many dimension | m:n-Dimension (A relationship between a dimension and a measure group in which a single fact may be associated with many dimension members and a single dimension member may be associated with a many facts. To define this relationship between the dimension and the fact table, the dimension is joined to an intermediate fact table and the intermediate fact table is joined, in turn, to an intermediate dimension table that is joined to the fact table) |
| measure dimension | Messdimension (A dimension used to characterize the magnitude of a measurement) |
| performance dimension | Leistungsdimension (A dimension used to distinguish and categorize key performance activity against objectives) |
| predefined dimension | vordefinierte Dimension (A dimension that is assigned a certain dimension type that is recognized by PerformancePoint Planning Server. Predefined dimensions have specific member properties and behaviors associated with them; for example, Time or Account) |
| primary dimension table | primäre Dimensionstabelle (In a snowflake schema in a data warehouse, a dimension table that is directly related to, and usually joined to, the fact table) |
| product dimension | Produktdimension (The size, color, or configuration product attributes that are used for dimension-based configuration) |
| reference dimension | Bezugsdimension (A relationship between a dimension and a measure group in which the dimension is coupled to the measure group through another dimension) |
| role-playing dimension | Dimension mit unterschiedlichen Rollen (A single database dimension joined to the fact table on a different foreign keys to produce multiple cube dimensions) |
| shared dimension | gemeinsame Dimension (A dimension created within a database that can be used by any cube in the database) |
| storage dimension | Lagerdimension (The dimension of an item that controls how items are stored and taken from inventory, giving retailers the ability to manage inventory on a very detailed level) |
| system-defined financial dimension type | vom System definierter Finanzdimensionstyp (A financial dimension mapped to a table or view in the database that represents an entity type and whose values are in the domain of one attribute of that entity type) |
