check your sql, is the grouping, ordering, joining if any are proper.

Also, Please make your topic more related to the error.

Hi,

Sounds to me like you have some serious problems with your metadata model in Framework Manager.  This is where you should really be looking to resolve repeating data / double counting etc.  Look for transitive relationship traps (loops) in your relationships as a starting point.

You can try to isolate the problem join by running reports that have 1 data item from the Measure dimension (use a very granular fact item instead of an aggregatable measure),  select a data item from 1 dimension.  Repeat until you have tested the measures against each Query Subject.  When you notice the repetition, you have identified a poorly constructed join.
