Hi,

I am seeing some WARN messages in the message log, the message reads:

TM1.Dimension Object Name is Blank

It appears this error is against a process which ODBC's to a sql database

Does anyone have any ideas what could trigger this error?

Yes. Trying to insert an element into a dimension where the element is blank.

Hi Wim,

Does this only appear when the source is ODBC?

I tried testing with a csv data source, had 3 rows in the source, made the middle row blank and did dimensionelementinsert and when I ran the process it just inserted the 2 populated rows and ignored the blank one?

I encountered this with ODBC data sources only, so that seems to be the case.

This can happen in regular dimension updates as well. I see it in the Prolog tab where the function "DimensionElementComponentAddDirect" is used.
If the parent for instance is empty, you get this one.
