Context - Covering the existing contexts

Hi,

I have Nine contexts in the universe.Two of the contexts are of significance for now. I need to build a query that gets objects from both the contexts. Since there are a lot of uncommon objects to be queried from both the contexts, i thought of building a new context that would cover the two contexts.But when i did that and checked, it gives me "This context contains 7 loops" message.

Is it ok to proceed with this message?

Thanks!

Hi Sarma,

Context in simple is the path that is followed while retreiving the data.

Contexts and aliases are defined to resolve loops and traps in the universe. So, the context we define should not contain any loops.

I don't think you will get the desired result in the current situation, as in the queries the new context (covering the other two context) will be considered.

Regards,

Rohit

Hi,

It is not ok to proceed with this message as you will get very strange results !

Keep your nine contexts seperate and ensure that the "Allow selection of multiple contexts" checkbox is ticked in the SQL tab of your Universe Parameters, this will allow you create the report you are after.
