Dimension Tables
Dimension tables store the values that are used in the fact tables. The dimension tables that appear in the Team System warehouse are either created at the time the product is installed or are created at the time the team project is created.
Dimension Tables Created During Setup
The following table shows the dimensions tables stored in the Team System relational database that are created at the time the product is installed and appear in all Team System data warehouses.
