Documentation

Definition

Number of callups for the Aggregate. The counter is counted up if a Query is reading the data from the aggregate or if another aggregate is made out of it.
When optimizing the aggregate selection, also enter the number for how often the aggregate would have been used had it already been created and filled.
Be aware that for repeated execution of analyses (for queries or statistics), the number is counted up again. If you carry out the same optmization twice, one after another, the number of callups, for example, is then doubled.

Use

With this figure, you can recognize whether an aggregate has been used at all.

You should deactivate, or delete, aggregates that are unused, since the data must be constantly updated by active, filled aggregates.
