Hi,
1. Make a flat file source system.
2. Then create a data source.
3. Create Info Package.
4. Create required info objects or use standard one.
5. Create a cube / DSO using these info objects.
6. Create Transformation.
7. Create DTP.
Now you can create queries on your cube / DSO.
Rest all depends on your requirements.
Thanks!
