Title: Calculation error - Data Module based on FM package
Post by: psten on 10 Feb 2017 04:32:44 AM
Hi,
I have created a data module with a framework package as source. When creating a calculation in the dashboard, i get an error (see attachement). It is not a solution to create the calculation in the framework, and even if it was, it would still only be a workaround.

We're using Cognos 11.0.5 and the database is Oracle 11. And this model is super-simple with only 3 joined tables, just to test this functionality.

Any thoughts? Have any of you been successful in creating this kind of calculation?

Thanks,
P..

Sadly I see the same error - even when using one of the sample packages. My feeling is this is a product defect. I'd raise a PMR with IBM if I was you...
