PM script option sets variable content to ignore

I am writing a script in Performance Modeler (TM1 version 10.2) that uses two columns (Parent, Child) to generate hierarchies. These are used as variables to modify the entries in a dimension.

I write a TI process to do this using the PM wizard. I select the option "Script Only" in the properties panel. However, when I run the script I get an error. Investigating the log (in TM1 Architect .. when will PM let you see the log?) I see that the script does not find the variables. When I look at the variables in TM1 Architect I see that the Content field is set to "Ignore".

My suspicion is that this is a bug in PM. When selecting Script Only, it seems that the variable content fields should be set to "Other".

As far as you had selected 'Scrip only' option while creating process that denotes you are not gone use any data source, and PM is an Guided GUI kind of interface for creating TI process it will simply ignore any variable under Variables tab which has got derived while you had selected any data source.
