DImensional Error

Getting the below error:
Arithmetic calculations using members from different dimensions or hierarchies may not product the expected result.

First Column
Total(currentMeasure within set(Mar2014,Apr2014,May2014)

Second COlumn
Total(currentMeasure within set(children(2015))

Calculated column
Secondcolumn/ First Column

Thanks,

What you haven't told us is the structure of the package you are using. Are the month members in the first expression in the same dimension/hierarchy as the year member in the second expression?

Nope :( The members in the month from first column and Second columns is from different Hierarchy.

But still the calculations are performed and I get the correct result. Its a warning.

Is this not allowed ?

Since the members are in different hierarchies, it's a warning that you might possibly get the wrong result. It all depends on the stucture of the hierarchies. As you point out, it works - so you got away with it. :)
