Dear Experts,

   System is given error message as  Variable B0 in items 3 and 4 cannot be identified

I have created M1 , M2 and M3 three quantitative characteristic

M3 characteristic is marked as calculated characteristic

In inspection plan the three characteristic has been entered and I want to obtain the sum of recorded values of M1 and M2 in M3

So for the third characteristic i am writing the formula B0 = M1 + M2 system is giving the error message. Please find the screen short attached.

Please help me out in resolving the issue.

Regards

Badri

Hi Badri,

You need to use the characteristic numbers for M1 and M2 as they appear in the plan (i.e., like M3 is characteristic 40 in your screen shot). Assuming M1 = 10 and M2 = 20, then the formula for M3 would be B00010+B00020.

Also, please check to make sure you want to use B0 (samples) and not C0 (summarized characteristic)

Regards,

John
