Management Reporter - Error in tree definition

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 632

I am new to Management Reporter, but very familiar with FRx.  I am setting up a large tree definition.  For some of the items, I get a white exclamation point in a red circle in the 'Row Definitions' column (column E) and a message that says the tree can't be saved because it has errors in it.  There is nothing in that column.  I have deleted the non-existent contents several times.  I have also re-entered a new line and I get the same error.  I had this happen earlier and messed around with it until it finally went away, but I figure there has to be an easier way.  What is it trying to tell me and how do I get rid of the error?

    I have encountered this issue with copy and pasting as well - the only way it was able to fix it is to delete the row, insert a new row, and *manually* retype everything instead of pasting.

    Hi Marsha,

    This is a tool tip. The column E likely has something in it. If the entire column E is blank, I'd recommend you highlight the first row in column E and then drag to the bottom to highlight all. Then delete these highlighted rows.

    If that fails, you can try to create a new row definition and copy all but column E (copy A through D first, then copy E through J with the second copy/paste).

    when I get that error I copy a blank cell that does not have that error and paste it into the one that does.

    I seem to get that error when I copy paste things around in the tree, or paste in from excel.

    It is the tree definition I am having trouble saving, with an error in the Row Definitions column (column E).  Everything else in Column E is blank, and I've been able to save it earlier with blanks in column E.

    Before saving the Row Definition, make sure the row definition contains at least one account mapping field.

    Hope this helps!!!
