 Defines a custom empty member for the attribute. This feature allows fact data with missing or invalid foreign key values to be isolated and independently aggregated from those with valid foreign key values. Because fact records with invalid foreign keys are aggregated separately from records referencing valid dimension members, analysts can easily spot data integrity problems and further investigate them. Use this feature to ensure that un-joinable values are included in query results and aggregated under a specially designated dimension member called the Custom Empty Member.
