?Logical Views? allows application architects to create any desired view using MicroStrategy, without DBA involvement. Once these Logical views are created, they are available to the report designer in a way similar to any other table. This allows developers to model attributes and facts whose expressions span multiple tables.

Solves complex data modeling challenges.

Logical views are views in Oracle database it contains one or more table columns from different tables without DBA involvement.

Logical Views or logical tables are used to model a Microstrategy schema that cannot be supported with just the database structures.

By using Logical views it is easier to manage SCD's , attribute form expresseions from multiple tables etc.

Logical views in MSTR are created by the application architect and mainly intended to provide a level and combination of columns that does not exist in the ware house. These type of views makes developer life easier in situations where the existing data warehouse does not support the requirement.
