Slices not working

We have users trying to perform slices on different cubes, and TM1 just sits there churning. Has anyone run into this and could possibly point me in the right direction towards a solution?

We are running TM1 9.1.4.

Thanks in advance!

How many rows and columns are in the slice? Do you have the slice zero-suppressed? How high up in the hierarchy are the slices? Are there a lot of rules in the cube being sliced? All these can affect slicing performance. I recommend trimming down the number of rows to arround 100 or so to see if that helps. If it does then you can bump it up 100 at a time until you find out what the breaking point is.

In their Excel Options (Advanced => General) have you checked that the Ignore Other Applications box is NOT checked?

Alan,

That box is not checked.
