title: SSAS 2008 Dimension Wizard and the Date Template
body: <p>Does anyone know how to use the Date Template with the BIDS 2008, SSAS Project, Dimension Wizard? I keep getting an error - rightly so, I suppose - "Dimension not generated because it is bound to a time binding" (after having selected Generate a non-time table in the data source, in order to get to the Date template).</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to do this as there is no Time dimension table in my data source.</p>
  
  <p>Furthermore, I need time periods of HourOFDay, MinuteOfHour, and MinuteOfDay, which are not there if I go down the Generate a time table in the data source route.</p>
  
  <p>In the meantime, I will go create the Time table from scratch, but it would be useful to know if I could achieve the same through some clever use of the Dimension Wizard.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you,
  Oana</p>
