Reporting on Intelligent Cubes with dynamic sourcing

You can manually connect a report to an Intelligent Cube to perform all reporting and analysis within the shared in-memory copy of data, as described in Reporting and analyzing data with Intelligent Cubes. Even if you don't manually connect your reports to an Intelligent Cube, the reports you create can also access Intelligent Cube data rather than querying the data warehouse automatically. Enabling this automatic link between reports and Intelligent Cubes is referred to as dynamic sourcing.

Dynamic sourcing extends the accessibility of Intelligent Cubes by allowing regular reports to access published Intelligent Cubes, as long as the Intelligent Cubes can satisfy the data requirements of the report. For a detailed explanation of dynamic sourcing and procedures to perform the project-wide configurations necessary to enable and support dynamic sourcing, see the In-memory Analytics Help.
