Arithmatic Overflow Exception in Charts

Hi,

I have a query that returns two matrices, that have large values.

Date                  Metric1                            Metric2
Nov 2, 2014    12,976,974.9647274   62,514.50251351
Nov 3, 2014    12,966,853.8528871   62,514.47391957
Nov 4, 2014    12,983,137.8364711   62,492.63182023

If I am displaying this as a list in the reoport there are no issues the report runs fine.

But if I display the same info in a chart (a Bar chart) I get the following error
A record was rejected. An arithmetic overflow occurred. PDS-PPE-0104 A record was rejected. An arithmetic overflow occurred. (Data)

Why is cognos behaving differently for the same query?

Thanks,
Jayatu

Have you tried exporting your list to excel (for example)? I'm guessing that you're only seeing part of the recordset in your listing.

Hi BigChris,

Yes I can export the list to excel. I have checked, entire data is displayed in the listing.

Thanks,

Bang goes that theory then...

A quick google search on the error code suggests that you're using a cube, is that right?
