Grouping Sets to use in filter

peter.malacek Mar 27, 2012 1:58 PM

Hi, can someone tell me if there is a way to group sets to use them in a filter? I have a list of counties that I have grouped into sets (5 regions). I can take each set and place it in the "filters" pane, but ideally I would want to have a "Region" field that I can drop there and pick one of my sets. This way I can make it global and flow through my workbook.

Thank you,

Peter

Thanks Tracy, my problem is that our cube does not allow for grouping on the Dimension level so I was hoping to group either using sets or by creating a calculated field pointing to the sets I created in the calculation.
