Which two statements are true when creating navigation paths?

Question

Options

• AA data module can have multiple navigation paths.
• BA modeler must delete the navigation path and re-create it to change the path.
• CColumns from different tables cannot be added to a navigation path.
• DA navigation path is a collection of Group Data columns.
• EA navigation path is a collection of non-measure columns.

• A
  4% (1)
• B
  83% (20)
• C
  8% (2)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

Option E is correct because a navigation path defines a drill-down sequence using dimensional context - attributes, hierarchies, and other descriptive columns - never measures (facts like revenue or quantity). Option B is correct because navigation paths are not editable in place; if you need to change the sequence or columns, you must delete the existing path and build a new one from scratch.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is false - a data module supports only one navigation path, not multiple.
• C is false - columns from different tables can be included in a navigation path, enabling cross-table drill sequences.
• D is false - navigation paths are not limited to "Group Data" columns specifically; they include all non-measure columns, which is a broader category.

Memory tip: Think of a navigation path as a GPS route for drilling - it only uses landmarks (non-measure/dimension columns), not distances (measures), and if you take a wrong turn, you have to restart the route entirely (delete and recreate).
