Tracking the use of dynamic sourcing

If you enable dynamic sourcing for a project, you can track various information related to dynamic sourcing that can determine why dynamic sourcing succeeds or fails for reports. By determining why dynamic sourcing fails for a given report, you can modify your reports, Intelligent Cubes, and other objects to allow reports to utilize dynamic sourcing.

You can track the use of dynamic sourcing with the MicroStrategy Diagnostics and Performance Logging tool. For information on how to use the Diagnostics and Performance Logging tool, see the System Administration Help.

This tool allows you to enable or disable various logs related to dynamic sourcing, which record various information about dynamic sourcing, including why dynamic sourcing cannot be used in different scenarios. The sections listed below describe the dynamic sourcing log files and error codes that can be tracked using the Diagnostics and Performance Logging tool:
