Hi Eric,

I did you try to create a new report in the document and to create a new table like the one having the error?

I experienced a couple of time the same issue and for me it worked.

Hi Eric,

you should create the variables in the BEx Query and then create the Universe on top of the query and the variable will automatically become a prompt in the Universe.

you can not create any new dimensions in BW unvierse,

you have to have this dimension exist in the cube itself

one of the things i dont like using BW.

good luck
