Advanced Excel - Cube Functions



The Excel Cube functions enable data from OLAP cubes to be brought into Excel to perform calculations. These functions are supported with a connection to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services or later data source.

As PowerPivot creates a data source, which is compatible with OLAP cubes, it can also be used with these functions.
