Why do Analysis Services Dimensions need to be linked to tab

les and how to work it around?
For example make a Dimension of the Entry Type in Item Ledger Entry. Yeah I could define a view... but isn't there an easier way?
I am confused because AFAIK it is just basically a big bunch of SUM - GROUP BY and a normal SQL GROUP BY never needed table relations for the fields grouped by? So why do they need it here?

Go to Amazon.com and search for "datawarehouse kimball". You can read his original book, but there are also books (written by some of his associates) on the methodology specifically in relation to the SQL Server tools, and there's a book for each major SQL Server version. I started the SQL Server 2005 one and it enlightened me greatly. You'll find out that a LOT of what is currently called 'business intelligence' is in fact NOT business intelligence.
