Formula variable used in exception and condition - gives a check error

Question

The same formula variable is used in a condition and exception within a query. When I click on "check", I get the message "Variable <myvar> Is Used By More Than One Infoobject". The variable is a formula variable, processed by User Entry/Default Value, with optional entry, ready for input, Dimension "number", default value -0.01.  However, the query still saves, generates and executes without problem.
This is with BW 7.0, SP 14.  And with query designer 3.5, version 3500.7.572
I'd be grateful if a few people could try to reproduce this, letting me know their version.  To reproduce it:
Create a query. Create formula variable processed by User Entry/Default Value, with optional entry, ready for input, Dimension "number", default value -0.01. Create a condition using the  variable. Create an exception using the variable. Click on Check. Save and execute the query.
Thanks

Answer 1

It is a warning and you can ignore it , if in query execution you get correct result / output...(then it implies u r on safe side)
But if you are so much concerned about warning then as a workaround just create another Formulae variable and use it in Condition and use the previous formulae variable for Exception.
This way you will have 2 variables for 2 different purposes
and you will get rid of the warning message.
So far if you get the correct output of query then there is no need to worry.
