TM1 Forum

Hey guys, I'm looking for some help on what I thought would be a rather simple thing.

Every time I try to attach this rule, I get an error for an Invalid Expression, starting at ['Actual': To me, that looks like a fairly simple and straight forward thing, so I'm wondering if there is some obscure TM1 caveat that I'm missing. I basically just want to say, "For this scenario, string measure get the value from that scenario, string measure."

If I set the rule to a Literal, like this: it works fine. This:also works, but only for Numeric values. I've also tried breaking that third rule up into S: and N: rules. No dice.

I'm working in a small dev cube so that I can port this to a larger cube, so there are no other rules on the cube. Is there something obvious I'm missing?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm running 10.1

You need to use longhand DB refs for strings in TM1. The shorthand notation works for numerics but not strings as you have already found.

Yep, just tried that and it went through. Thanks.
