Error when Refresh Planning after adding attribute V9.2.1

Question

Has anyone encountered this and what is the solution:
Added new attribute dimension in planning web and added attribute members. When I try to do incremental or full refresh, receive error message:
Errors detected (AssocAttrDimension, 1060057) Could not associate attribute with member (attribute,member) Decanatura, Career -2147218881
Career is the dimension and Decanatura is the attribute added
Using 9.2.1
Thanks
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
please find some findings from planning DBAG which may be useful to resolve your issue:
You can assign attributes only to sparse dimensions.
You cannot assign attributes to label-only members.
After you create attributes and attribute values, you can assign attribute values to each member of the dimension.
You must assign attribute values to dimension members at the same member level within a dimension.
You can define attribute values for Entity, user-defined custom dimensions, and Account
members if the Account dimension is designated as a sparse dimension in all plan types. You
can then assign attribute values to members of a dimension.
Attribute values for an attribute must be assigned to the same-level sparse dimension members.
Assigning an attribute value to another level causes an error during the application refresh.
hope this helps.
