SSAS: The Sort Order Specified For Distinct Count Records Is Incorrect.

Symptoms

During a processing time of a cube that contains a distinct count measure, the process fails with the following error message:
The sort order specified for distinct count records is incorrect

Cause

This is most likely caused by different sort order used on the data warehouse data set and the analysis service database data set.

Resolution

Modify the sort order of the data warehouse data set so that it will match with the analysis service database data set.

Into the Depth 

Navigate to the analysis database and start to process the desired database. When the processing begins, the Process progress window will pop up. Wait till the process gets failed. After the process failed, find the failing measure group and expand to the last node where you can see an SQL query. Double click on the query and view the details. This query gives you the exact order by the column which caused you this trouble. 

Execute the query using the data warehouse database. View the analysis service database data set and compare the result. There will be a mismatch between two data sets.

May the force be with you!

Thought it worked I got some issues here and there so I decided not to continue with the same project rather create a new ASP.NET Core 3.1 React TypeScript template project. When you are going to create a new project, Visual Studio provided you a list of templates where you can pick desired Even though we have a project template for ASP.NET Core with React JS, there is no direct project templ...

Satellite Assembly in C#

Satellite Assemblies Resource files in Dot Net Resource files are typically used to store any resources in your Dot Net application. Resource file allows you to store images, icons, audio, files, strings and other types of resources. Of cause it is not mandatory to keep them inside a resource file. But when it comes to localization it is recommended to work with the resource file. localization Which means based on the user's language and culture change the application and the resources. How to archive localization with resources? Seems to be an impossible task. But to make the impossible possible, Dot Net provides you a special assembly called "Satellite Assembly" Satellite assemblies are assemblies that containing resources specific to a given language and culture. Using satellite assemblies, you can place the resources for different languages in different assemblies, and the correct assembly is loaded into memory only if the user selects to view the ...
