As an enterprise reporting solution, Reporting Services can consume many different types of data sources, including Analysis Services cubes and PowerPivot workbooks. You can build simple reports using a graphical design interface in Reporting Services without learning the Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) language, but to fully leverage multidimensional data in your reports, you should develop a solid understanding of this language and how to structure your query to facilitate the report design process. In this session, we'll review how the graphic designer constructs an MDX query, explore ways that you might want to change the generated query, and demonstrate how to work with parameterized MDX queries. We'll also explore how to use T-SQL stored procedures to call MDX queries.
