RE: What are non-additive facts?
 
# Additive: Additive facts are facts that can be summed up through all of the dimensions in the fact table. 
# Semi-Additive: Semi-additive facts are facts that can be summed up for some of the dimensions in the fact table, but not the others. 
# Non-Additive: Non-additive facts are facts that cannot be summed up for any of the dimensions present in the fact table.
