Attribute View or Analytical View

Dear all,

I am looking to model, what I believe is Master Data.

Take for example Orders, which do not have $$$ values.

These seem to be the options

1. So, do I create an Attribute View over my "Master Data" table, and simply use this for analysis, e.g. Order Types, etc
2. Should I create an Analytical View, directly over the "Master Data" table, and simply use that as the Foundation
3. Should I create an Analytical View, and re-use the Attribute View that I could have created above (1st option), but then there is no data in the Foundation.

So which would be the best in terms of speed and flexibility

Thanks

G
