Writing Feeder Rules

I am puzzled as to why I can't seem to get data pushed over to my CostOfQuality2 cube with my rule.

I have the rule in my income cube called "Inc". "Scrap" in my Inc cube is a consolidated element that sums three different scrap accounts (gross scrap, scrap sales, scrap other). I expected the rule to take actual scrap from my Inc cube and load it to "scrap" in my CostOfQuality2 cube but I only get zeroes. I have Skipcheck and Feeders in my rule and no other rules are impactin the CosOfQuality2 cube.

Is there anything wrong with my rule?


['Actual', 'Scrap']=>DB('CostOfQuality2','Actual',!Years,!Depts,!Ledgers,!Plants,!Projects,'Scrap',!Periods);

The main problem is that isn't a rule... it is a feeder.

If you post the dimensionality of the 2 cubes and explain which elements you want populating from the other we will be able to explain what your rule should look like.


As a rough hint it will be along the lines of:

['Element']=N: DB('Cube 1',!Dim1, !Dim2....);
