String Feeder Issues

Hi There

Without going into the full context, I have a recharge template, where user captures the cost centre that a value must be recharges to.

This value is captured into a string element called "SYS - Cost Centre" in the Measures dimension.
So for example, user might capture the string value "CC100".
I have formulas to calculate the values in CC100, and I also need to then feed CC100.

My feeder statement is along the lines of:
['SYS - Cost Centre'] => DB(Cube1,....!Measures (This is actually position of Cost Centre dimension),............)

This does not work.

But it works fine if I change my feeder to explicitly feed for testing purposes to:
['SYS - Cost Centre'] => DB(Cube1,....'CC100' (This is actually position of Cost Centre dimension),............)

Any idea why my original feeder is not working?

I do have a FeedStrings statement.


MAny thanks!!

Regards
Chris

Hi,

You should replace !Measures with a DB() function towards that measure.
