Hi,

Is that a calculated variable??

Can you please post the formula used within the variable , which will help in understanding the issue better.

Thanks,

Hi Kirthi,

yes, it is an calculated variable.

(see the screenshot)

When I copy a variable, that I created with BO4.0 I don't have this problem.

Only I want to copy an "old" variable which I have create with BO 3.1.

Thanks.

We use BO4 SP 7 1.

I have checked the forum entries but this is not my problem. I see the function copy/ paste.  When I use the function paste for a variable that I create with BO 3.1 then I receive the error messsage.

Hi Susan,

I have two questions,

what is the process that has been used to upgrade the documents to BI4.0?

does this happen with all variables coming from XI3.1 or just some of them ?

Thanks

Hi Simone,

we have used the Upgrade-Management Tool . We have migraded the whole folder with all

dependent objects.

Yes, it happens with all variables from XI3.1

Thanks

Hi Simone,

it was long ago. I think it was SP BOE XI 3.1 ServicePack 2.

Thanks
