UPDATED 03/17/2016 - Attached file 3providers.txt. This file is, in fact, a zip file containing both the wid file and the excel. Rename from 3providers.txt to 3providers.zip. This example was done in 4.1 SP5
Hi,
I´ve just find a way to use 3 Data Providers which are "compatible" 2 by 2. The idea came from this post Merging 3 queries using 2 merged dimensions.
In this post, I´ll use three Data providers in an Excel file.
The first one that I´ll name Invoices has 2 fields an ID of the invoice and the date of the invoice
