Remarks

Duplicate key errors are generated only during dimension processing, when an attribute key is encountered more than once. Because attribute keys must be unique, Analysis Services discards the duplicate records. Duplicate key errors typically indicate a flaw in the design of the dimension, specifically in the relationships between attributes.

The value of this element is limited to one of the strings in the following table.

Value

Description

IgnoreError

Processing should ignore the error and continue.

ReportAndContinue

Processing should report the error and continue.

ReportAndStop

Processing should report the error and stop.

The enumeration that corresponds to the allowed values for KeyDuplicate in the Analysis Management Objects (AMO) object model is ErrorOption.
