Title: Manual Levels with no Source
Post by: wyconian on 16 Jun 2015 10:18:04 AM
Hi everyone

I'm working for a client who is upgrading from series 7 to C10.2.2.  They have some manual levels that are used as a drill down to a level populated from the FM package.  The manual levels don't have any source set in the properties but are still generating categories with valid values.

Any ideas how these manual levels are being populated?

All help appreciated.

Thanks

Simon

Hello Simon,
In FM, if you open the definition of the hierarchy, you will see all the levels defined in there. Each level will have a query item mapped to it. You will not see the hierarchical structure in FM as you see in Report studio.

Hi,

If you open the category diagram, you will most likely find manual categories have been added to the manual levels, then these have been linked into the existing category tree above and below.

Cheers!
