I have following created a association mining model and tested it by using various DMX queries. I works quite satisfactory.
But I would like to use this mining model on a cube. Ie a calculated measure that would show top 1 recommendation for my customer portfolio.
My knowlede reaches to the extent that you need to feed data by using the OpenQuery or OpenRowset queries.
I would like to "stick" my model to the cube on some way and the extract values in the same manner as filtering criterias in stead of manually generating DMX queries.
I have googled a bit and searched MSDN without luck. Maybe I'm looking at this all wrong.
Is this possible?

Could this help?

It presents an example of how to create a custom action containing a data mining prediction. Not really a calculated measure, but still a way to associate a prediction result with an cube cell.
Alternately, you could try this more complex approach:
- have your transaction data in the same cube
- build an OLAP mining model based on the cube
- use the MDXPredict MDX function to retrieve predictions from a mining model inside the calculated measure
