Fact Table Grain at a Sub-Atomic Level
I'm thumbing through the Design Tips and would love to find some thought given to the statement made in The Data Warehouse Toolkit: The Complete Guide to Dimensional Modeling (pg 34):
"Preferably you should develop dimensional models for the most atomic information captured by a business process. Atomic data is the most detailed information collected; such data cannot be subdivided further."
