When you define a semantic model, you add dimensions and measures. In Source Fields, the the circled numbers next to candidate measures and dimensions indicate how many times each one is used in the design.

Note Kyvos supports naming semantic model entities in the ENTITY_ format, such as DIMENSION_, DIM_,and MEASURE_, and so on. |
To design a semantic model, perform the following steps.
From the Toolbox, click Semantic Models.
Click the Actions menu ( ⋮ ) at the top of the Semantic
...
Models column.
Click Add Semantic Model.
Enter a name for the semantic model.
Select a Relationship from the list and click Add.
You can enter a term in the search box to quickly find a name.

Do one of the following:
Right-click in the Dimension or Measure areas to add dimensions or measures.
By default, the name of the data source table from which the first measure is created in the measure group is taken as

the measure group name. However, if you have created a measure group with a custom name, then dragging a measure in it would not impact the name of the measure group.
Drag candidate measures or dimensions to the semantic model design worksheet to the areas for measures and dimensions. Use Ctrl+click to select multiple fields.
Click the plus buttons in the Dimension or Measure columns to add additional dimensions or measures. Then select candidate measures or dimensions from the candidate lists on the left.
...
Right-click at the Dimension or Measure Group levels to rename them and add lower levels.
Right-click at the lower levels to rename the item you selected or add items at that level.
Click the Actions menu(...) menu near the top of the page and choose Validate. See Validating semantic model.
Click Save.

Selecting dimensions and measures
Under Source Fields, you can select dimensions and measures to drag into the dimension and measure areas. You can select multiple elements in a semantic model using Ctrl+Click. You can also select and delete multiple elements in the cube.
Methods to move hierarchies, attributes or levels
When using the Design tab, you can drag an item to a different dimension or measure a group. You will see a placeholder indicator, for example, Drop as dimension.
When you select an item, you can use the Properties pane to move it to a different hierarchy or measure group.

Filtering
Use the Filter panel, which by default is located below the Properties pane, to filter dimensions and measures. If the Filter panel is collapsed, click the Actions menu ( ⋮ ) next to Filter and select Expand.
As you select filter settings, the dimensions and measures lists adjust based on your criteria. Use filters to get insight into your data. For example, you can set Invalid to Yes to swiftly view all invalid items. Click Clear to clear the settings in that filter.
Properties
Use the Properties pane to view and modify the properties of a semantic model or you can use the context menu for each item. Click each item to view or modify its properties. Some properties have an information icon next to the name. Click it to learn more.
You can also use the Refine tab to view the advanced properties and other strategies.
Description
If you add a description to properties of dimensions or measures, you can view those descriptions when creating a worksheet or dashboard.
Logical and Physical views
You can maintain the logical view of a semantic model to support business requirements and tune the physical view to support optimization requirements. The logical view, which is the default view, shows all calculated measures and members.
To switch to the physical view, perform the following steps:
Click the Refine tab.
To change back to the logical view, click the Design tab.
