Preparing the Microsoft SQL Server client

Ensure that the Microsoft SQL Server client is in the correct location for communication with the Case Analyzer SSAS Connector.

Start of changeThe Case Analyzer SSAS Connector is used to access Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) to perform online analytical processing (OLAP) operations on Case Analyzer reporting. The preferred location for the installation of the Case Analyzer SSAS Connector is on the same machine as the Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services server and client. If the Case Analyzer SSAS Connector is installed on a machine that is remote from the Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services server, the Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services client must be installed on the same Windows based machine as the Case Analyzer SSAS Connector.End of change
