Which of the following statements best describes the MicroStrategy Metadata?
- A.
  
  It stores all of the information that you want to analyze from your various business systems.
- B.
  
  It contains the definition of reports as well as all of the objects that are included in reports.
- C.
  
  It records data about your business
Correct Answer
B. It contains the definition of reports as well as all of the objects that are included in reports.

Explanation
The MicroStrategy Metadata is a repository that stores the definition of reports and all the objects that are included in those reports. This includes information about the structure, layout, and formatting of the reports, as well as the data sources and calculations used in generating the reports. By storing this information, the metadata allows users to easily access and analyze the data from various business systems in a consistent and organized manner.

Which of the following objects provides descriptive information from the data warehouse that can be displayed on a report?
- A.
  
  Fact
- B.
  
  Attribute
- C.
  
  Hierarchy
Correct Answer
B. Attribute

Explanation
Attributes in a data warehouse provide descriptive information about the data. They describe the characteristics or properties of the objects in the data warehouse. When displayed on a report, attributes provide additional context and details about the data, helping users understand and analyze the information more effectively. Therefore, attributes are the objects that provide descriptive information from the data warehouse for display on a report.

Which of the following objects enables users to select the information to be included in a report or document at run time?
- A.
  
  Metric
- B.
  
  Attribute
- C.
  
  Prompt
- D.
  
  Fact
Correct Answer
C. Prompt

Explanation
A prompt is an object that allows users to select the information they want to include in a report or document at the time it is being run. It provides a user interface where users can input their preferences or criteria, such as selecting specific data or applying filters, which then determines the content of the report or document. Prompts are commonly used in reporting and document generation tools to give users flexibility and control over the output they receive.

All reports in MicroStrategy are made up of a filter and the following object:
- A.
  
  Hierarchies
- B.
  
  Fact
- C.
  
  Template
Correct Answer
C. Template

Explanation
In MicroStrategy, all reports are composed of a filter and a template. The template defines the layout and formatting of the report, including the placement of hierarchies and facts. It allows users to customize the appearance of the report and present the data in a visually appealing manner. The filter is used to specify the criteria for data retrieval, allowing users to narrow down the information displayed in the report. Together, the filter and template form the structure and design of the report in MicroStrategy.

This folder contains reports, documents, and other objects that are accessible to you and other users.
- A.
  
  My Subscriptions
- B.
  
  History List
- C.
  
  Shared Reports
- D.
  
  My Reports
Correct Answer
C. Shared Reports

Explanation

Which of the following statements about prompts is true?
- A.
  
  Documents cannot be prompted
- B.
  
  A prompt may have a default answer already selected when you first view it.
- C.
  
  All prompts are displayed the same way.
Correct Answer
B. A prompt may have a default answer already selected when you first view it.

Explanation
A prompt may have a default answer already selected when you first view it. This means that when you are presented with a prompt, there may already be a suggested answer or option chosen for you. This can be helpful as it saves time and effort for the user, as they can simply accept the default answer if it is appropriate. However, it is important to note that not all prompts have default answers and it ultimately depends on the specific prompt and its design.

Rate this question:
7.

This type of report or document already has all of the content defined at run time.
- A.
  
  Static
- B.
  
  Predefined
- C.
  
  Prompted
Correct Answer
A. Static

Explanation
A static report or document refers to a type of report or document that has all of its content defined at run time. This means that the content of the report or document is fixed and does not change dynamically. The information presented in the report or document remains the same regardless of any changes in the data or variables. Therefore, the correct answer is "Static."

Rate this question:
8.

Which type of prompt display option enables users to enter a single value? (For example, number, text, or date).
- A.
  
  Pull Down
- B.
  
  Text Box
- C.
  
  Option Button
- D.
  
  Check Box
Correct Answer
B. Text Box

Explanation
The text box prompt display option enables users to enter a single value. This is because a text box allows users to input any type of text, such as numbers, letters, or dates, in a single field. Pull down, option button, and check box are not suitable for entering a single value as they are used for selecting from predefined options or multiple choices.

Rate this question:

  Grid
- B.
  
  Graph
- C.
  
  Grid and Graph
- D.
  
  All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the above

Explanation
All of the above is the correct answer because the question is asking about the different views that can be used to display reports. The options provided include Grid, Graph, and Grid and Graph, which cover all possible views for displaying reports. Therefore, selecting "All of the above" encompasses all the available options for viewing reports.

After you run a report, what report manipulation enables you to view data at levels other than the original level of the report?
- A.
  
  Drilling
- B.
  
  Advanced Sorting
- C.
  
  Data Pivoting
- D.
  
  Outline Mode
Correct Answer
A. Drilling

Explanation
Drilling is a report manipulation technique that allows you to view data at different levels than the original level of the report. It enables users to navigate through the report hierarchy by expanding or collapsing data to reveal more detailed or summarized information. This allows for a deeper analysis of the data and the ability to explore different dimensions and levels of granularity.

- C.
  
  Drilling
- D.
  
  Page-by
Correct Answer
D. Page-by

Explanation
Page-by functionality enables a report to be divided into separate pages for viewing purposes based on an object, such as an attribute or metric. This means that the report can be organized and presented in a more organized and structured manner, making it easier for users to navigate and understand the information presented. By dividing the report into separate pages, users can focus on specific sections or elements of the report, enhancing the overall user experience and making it more efficient to analyze the data.

While viewing a document, which of the following statements about the grouping feature is true?
- A.
  
  Grouping in documents is similar to the page-by axis in reports
- B.
  
  You can change the order of the data elements in the Grouping field.
- C.
  
  You can add additional data elements to the Grouping field.
Correct Answer
A. Grouping in documents is similar to the page-by axis in reports

Explanation
Grouping in documents is similar to the page-by axis in reports. This means that when grouping data in a document, it organizes the data in a similar way as the page-by axis in reports. This allows users to group and organize data based on specific criteria, making it easier to analyze and understand the information presented in the document. Additionally, this statement implies that the grouping feature in documents and the page-by axis in reports serve a similar purpose and function in organizing and presenting data.

Which of the following statements about sorting report data is false?
- A.
  
  Quick sort enables you to sort by one row or column at a time
- B.
  
  You can perform an advanced sort using the sort buttons
- C.
  
  Advanced sort enables you to sort sequentially by up to three rows or columns at a time.
Correct Answer
B. You can perform an advanced sort using the sort buttons

Explanation
The given statement is false because you cannot perform an advanced sort using the sort buttons. The sort buttons in a report are usually designed to perform a basic sort, such as sorting data in ascending or descending order based on a single column. To perform an advanced sort, which involves sorting data sequentially by multiple rows or columns, you would typically need to use more advanced sorting features or functions provided by the software or application you are using.
