Dynamic dimension building

Dynamic dimension building:
There are 3 dimension build techniques in dynamic dimension building
1. Generation Reference Technique
2. Level Reference Technique
3. Parent-child Reference Technique
Dynamic dimension building is done through rule file.
Using Generation Reference technique:
Generation reference technique is explain about top to bottom architecture of an outline.
Step1: create  source file.
Step2: Create rule file                                                                                                                              
goto file                                                                                                                             
under file click on new button                                                                                                            
New window will open, in that  we can find 3 tabs essbase, scripts, wizards                                   
in that you have to go scripts tab in that you can found rule file                                                    
select rule file, click on ok.                                                                                                         
in data prep editor only we create rule file                                                                               
Step3: Load the source file into data prep editor                                                                              
click on open data file                                                                                                                        
open window will open, in that you have to give source file address , and then click on ok    
all 3 fields combined and appearing as one,to change that one go to options, click on data source properties
in source file for separating fields we used comma so select comma as delimiter. click on ok. 
before in dataprep editor we fond only one field, after changing comma as delimiter it changed to 3 fields accordingly.
now we have to go to file, options, dimension build settings
 select which dimension you want to build.
select the dimension build property.
i am using generation reference technique.
click on properties
