Fatima,

When you create the model, you can chose the time granularity to the day level. The time horizon you chose will automatically create members accordingly including the hierarchy. If you have some custom requirement, you can replicate your Time dimension as a generic dimension and create the members and hierarchy manually to create rollups. Your main time dimension will just act as a dummy in that case.

thank you - this is a really important workaround, but not obvious to our customers

Yeah Henry. I did something similar to get YTD for my charts as delivered YTD works only for Grid. I am not sure if this limitation has been addressed but I am sure coming waves of the product will address all these limitations.

You can have only one date per model - see POST data

Hi Tammy,

Thank you Tammy for your reply but i'm not talking about having more than time dimension per model but about having for example Year->Quarter->Month->Week->Day.

Reviewing the SAP Help - SAP Cloud for Analytics Product Page I don't see a way to do that now; best thing is to have those manipulations done at the data source level
