# CONSOLIDATEMEDIAN 

Returns the median value of all child values for a given consolidation intersection. This function only works at a consolidated level.

```js
CONSOLIDATEMEDIAN(dimension)
```

#### Parameters

* `dimension` - The dimension used to get the median of children.

#### Overloads

**Card Overload:**
This overload can be used in cards to point to a specific cube location.

* `Cube` - Cube name to query.
* `Location` - Location within cube.
* `Dimension` - The dimension used to get the median of children.

#### Examples

```js
IF(ISLEAF(), CONTINUE, CONSOLIDATEMEDIAN("Time"))
```

**Note:** If this is calculating a N-Level value it will return said value. If this is calculating a consolidation on the Time dimension it will return the median of direct children values.
