BO Data Providers
when we use 2 data providers, and each data provider contains different universe,
when we merge these two universes in a report with some common dimension, then what will be the result of the report with that merging dimension and one measure from one universe and one dimension from other universe?
Eg: Universe1 and Universe2
say merging dimension is d1
and measure m1 from universe1
and measure m2 from universe2
then what will be the output?
is it gonna be union, intersection or outer join or inner join or something else?

Hey in such case you can only use dimensions from one data provider in the report except the dimensions which are involved in merging. Meraged dimension can be used from any of the data provider. Measures from both data providers can be used in single report.
