TM1Web 10.1-Error opening a view with Custom Rollup Member

Hi All.

I'm experimenting a problem with Tm1 Web 10.1 when a user, without Admin rights, re-open a saved view with at least a Custom Rollup Member.

My user creates a view with a Custom Rollup Member based on a selection of some items from a dimension that stays in the Context (no in rows or in columns). Then he saves the view (private view because he isn't an Admin or a DataAdmin).
If he log-out from Tm1 Web and log-in again, he is no more able to open the view due to the error message: "93: DimensionName : View Title Element Not Defined".

Looking inside the text file NameOfTheView.vue I can find an entry that report correctly the presence of the "}ROLLUP_0" member, but not any definition regarding how this item was defined. This is the reason why TM1 Web probably reports the error; It doesn't know how to recreate the "}ROLLUP_0" member!
Instead, if the view was developed and saved by an user with Admin rights, below the Custom RollUp Element there are some lines in the .vue file with the correct list of elements used to define the custom member. And any user can re-open the view without any problem.

More or less the same also if the Custom Rollup Member is positioned in rows or cols..No definition saved in the .vue file but, in this case, the user can open the view with no error...but no data are in any case displayed because there is no member listed in rows or cols for that dimension.

I tried also creating the Custom RollUp Member and save the subset (private) prior to save the view, but with the same result.

Some others experimented the same problem?
Any suggestion to bypass the problem?

AFAIK, those custom rollup elements are only good for your current session. If you log out of TM1 they disappear so it's not a good idea to use them in saved views.

Hi Tom,
thank you for your reply.

I agree with you and this is what I told to my users.

Unfortunately in the documentation:
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/ctm1/ ... d0a63.html

there is a final note:
"Note: If you save this view, the user-defined consolidation is not saved as part of the view, but the members of the consolidation are saved as part of the view."

..and this don't happen if you are not an Admin and you loose the view.
