Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| .gif) | AdjustTimeZone | Whether to apply UTCToWarehouseTime conversions to the field. | 
| .gif) | AggregationFunction | |
| .gif) | AttributeHierarchyEnabled | |
| .gif) | DisplayFolderName | The name of the Display Folder for this item in the Cube. Null or Empty String indicates no folder. Currently Display Folders are not translated. | 
| .gif) | FormatString | |
| .gif) | FriendlyName | The Friendly Name. (Inherited from NamedItem.) | 
| .gif) | GenerateETL | Should this field be included in the auto-generated ETL for the relational warehouse? If it is not included it will not be in the autogenerated stored procedures. Any fields included in the stored procedures must be assigned a value when the stored procedure is called otherwise the row will will be updated to have NULL for that value. | 
| .gif) | IncludeInRelationalInterface | Include this field in the autogenerated Relational Interface (that is Fact Views). Default Value: True | 
| .gif) | InstanceSelection | |
| .gif) | IsNumeric | Returns whether the field is "logically numeric". Currently person fields are stored by using integer SK fields, but this property does not consider them numeric. This property *does* currently consider the SurrogateKey field to be numeric, although some users of the property may want to ignore it. | 
| .gif) | IsPerson | Denotes whether the field is a person field type. | 
| .gif) | IsString | Returns whether the field is a database string type. | 
| .gif) | Length | |
| .gif) | Name | (Inherited from NamedItem.) | 
| .gif) | Persistent | Fields such as parent keys can be non-persistent to enable passing them to sprocs for lookup purposes without actually persisting them. Defaults to true. | 
| .gif) | RelationalOnly | |
| .gif) | SourceField | The source of data for this field. This is used for Fact Fields - a fact field will give you a measure in measure group in the cube. This will be the source column in the DSV for this field. | 
| .gif) | SqlDbType | Converts the string attribute Type to a SqlDbType. FUTURE: Change Type to be a SqlDbType. | 
| .gif) | Translation | (Inherited from NamedItem.) |

Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| .gif) | Clone | (Inherited from CloneableItem.) | 
| .gif) | Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .gif) | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .gif) | GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .gif) | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .gif) | IsWellFormed | (Overrides NamedItem.IsWellFormed().) | 
| .gif) | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) | 
| .gif) | ShouldSerializeTranslation | (Inherited from NamedItem.) | 
| .gif) | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
