Default layout of a PowerPlay Cube

A default PowerCube layout is determined by the order of the dimensions and measures in a PowerPlay model. It can be adjusted in a PowerPlay model by a cube developer in Transformer.

The layout of each newly created Cube is the following:

Rows - first dimension from the left and categories from the first level in that dimension

Columns - second dimension and categories from the first level in that dimension

Measures - first (top) measure from the measures list

The PowerPlay Cube report will also show row and column summary by default.

Please refer to the screenshots below to see how PowerPlay transformer organizes measures and dimensions in a default layout.
