OWC, Pivot & "OR" queries

this is probably a very easy question but I can't seem to find an answer...

Is there any visual way of building a query in OWC that includes a couple of conditions included as 'OR'?

basically every dimension I drop becomes a condition but they all get added as 'AND' & I can't seem to have a way to do 'OR' - even cube browser in BI studio doesn't have this option...

You can do OR between members of the same hierarchy (hopefully on the same level). Just select multiple members from the same hierarchy.|||

if it was the same dimension it'd have been easy, but it's a bit complicated since it's a role playing dimension & so even though it's the same hierarchy & same level it becomes 2 different dimensions.

something like this: DateOpened.Year = 2000 or LastRenewalDate.Year = 2000?

|||You cannot do it in OWC. You will have to write your own MDX queries to do it.
