This is a nice little OLAP cube tutorial.  Remember though!!!  XBRL wants the "multidimensional model" part of business intelligence, it does not want the "OLAP" piece which focuses only on numeric content (because XBRL also deals with text) or the aggregation part (because not everything needs to be aggregated, it already could have been aggregated.

For more information, see the OLAP Council White Paper.
