#MULTIVALUE error occures when you try to place a formula or Column that returns more than one value in a cell that outputs only one value.
I hope this will answer your question

Calculated variable throwing #MULTIVALUE error

I have data of employees entering time by day and time can be billable and non-billable.
I want to show a column chart where I show the number of employees categorized as per following buckets based on their NB%
"75% and Above", "50-75%" and "0-50%"
To achieve this I created a variable (measure) first that calculates the NB% and then created another variable called NB Group which basically is a set of If, ElseIf conditions that check NB% and assign value as "75% and Above", "50-75%" and "0-50%".
When I create a report with columns employee, NB% and NB Group, the NB Group value shows up fine. However when I just pull NB Group into a blank report I am getting #MULTIVALUE error.
I was expecting to see a distinct list of all the NB Groups just like it would for any other dimension and then wanted to add a new column with count of employees and convert that into a chart.
What am i doing wrong? Is there another approach I should follow?

Both [Hours] and [Non-Billable Hrs] are report level variables.
[Hours] = [Hours Entered] + [Hours Missing] (Both of these are coming from the DB/Universe)
[Non-Billable Hrs] =Sum([Hours]) In ([Employee]) Where ([Hrs Type] = "Non-Billable")
[NB Group] =If [Non-Billable Hrs]/ Sum([Hours]) > 0.5 Then "50% and Above" Else "0-50%"
Note: [NB Group] is getting converted to a measure automatically and i am not able to change it. Wondering if this is causing the problem?
Anyway, as you suggested I tried to take a small data set and get the results per Employee and that came out correctly (top table).
However, when I remove the employee and try to aggregate I am not getting the expected count.
Here, Employee =Count([Employee])

#MULTIVALUE error in some cells only

I am getting #MULTIVALUE error in few cells in a cross-tab report whereas the rest of the cells show correct results. What can be the reason for this.
My cross tab report consists of : Physician(Dimension) as a Section, Metrics(dimension) in the rows and Month(dimension) as columns.
The body contains measures- Rate and Scale. Each Metric has got a defined scale of 0-4 based upon a range of the Rate.
Scale ia a variable created by me as =[Rating Scale] In ([Provider] Where([Rate] Between([Lower Target Pct];[Upper Target Pct]))
The report looks like:
                    Jan                   Feb                          Mar
              Rate Scale
Metric1
Metric2
When i try to include the Rate of YTD, the data in the Rate shows correct results wheares the Scale certain cells are appropriate but rest of them throughs #MULTIVALUE error.
I am not able to comprehend whats going wrong in here.
Can anyone pls resolve this issue.

Actually , there is no formula for Scale. Its in-built dimension but to get the correct result in the cross-tab( No irregularities are found for teh results in the horizontal and the vertical report format), I created the variable for scale as follows:
=Scale ForEach(Provider) Where(Rate Between Lower Target AND Upper Target). After using this variable, I got correct results for the monthly/quarterly data wheareas for the YTD it gives #MULTIVLAUE for few cells, where the scale is different for the every months./quarters. It gives correct result where the rate falls in teh same scale zone for all the months/quarters for a certain Metric.
For .Ex.
Metric                   Q1                           Q2                  Q3                      YTD
                     Rate     Scale
Tetanus        94         3                     92     3                91 3                 93       3
BRC              71        2                      91      3               98    4               83       #MULTIVALUE
I am not able to fathom that why its not taking the YTD into consideration even though I created a different variable for the scale of YTD in which I used the YTD(rate) instead of the actual(Rate).

#MULTIVALUE Error while merging

Hi,
I merged two dataproviders and changed a dimension to Detail and added the detail object to the existing block.It gives me a #MULTIVALUE error.
I found an article which addresses this issue, but i failed to understand how it could be achieved.
below is the link to the article.Can someone kindly illustrate the point?
Thanks!

Sarma,
The article is trying to explain that in a previous release of WebI, that somehow merged dimensions tolerated two values to populate the same cell. With XI R2 SP2 and onward, WebI was changed to no longer tolerate a "cartesian" output and would instead put "#Multivalue" to give notice. The simple explanation of what causes #Multivalue is that you are attempting to populate a cell with two values at the same time. The hard part is in determining why it is happening. The only way to see what's happening is to get to the data, and you get to the data by creating another tab to your report for the purposes of discovery. In the new tab start a new grid and one at a time place objects from your data panel into a grid and observe what happens. Once you get a #Multivalue response, then you've identified your culprit and can then determine why it's happening. The fix is usually determining the proper metric to use in dissecting your data properly. Essentially, #Multivalue now serves its purpose as helping to keep you from "hurting yourself" in performing analysis that is not correct.
Thanks,
John

#MULTIVALUE error

Hi,
I searched the forum for #MULTIVALUE error but didn't get the proper answer.
I'm getting the #MULTIVALUE error in a webI report on top of a BEX Query universe.
Ex: Vendor has multiple Vendor Keys ans it's sales details
Vendor Key Vendor Sales outstanding
#MULTIVALUE V1 1000 2000
How to resolve this issue? tried unchecking 'Avoid Duplicate Row Aggregation' but it doesn't serve the purpose.
Thanks in advance.

#Multivalue error in BO webi.

Hi
We are having a webi report based on two Bex queries. One query on top of a multiprovider and another on a DSO. The DSO contains rate category information and mutiprovide contains customer deatils. "Rate Category" is the common field between the two sources. So we have a merged dimension on top of Rate Category.
In the report we need to display the winter and summer rates used for a particular customer based on his recent rate category in seperate cells outside the table. Based on the recent meter reading date, we are picking the value of rate category using the below formulas.
[recent MR date] = max(meter reading date) // measure variable
[recent rate category] = if (meter reading date = recent MR date) then [customer].[rate category] //dimension variable.
Once the recent rate category is got, using the below formula we are doing a look up on the another bex query(which is built on DSO)
[recent winter rate] = if (recent rate category = [DSO].[rate category]) then [winter rate] //measure variable.
Upon using these formulas we are getting #multivalue error.
Please suggest some solution for the above issue.

Hi Vinayak Gole,
Check the following Property.
Right click on the table and check the “Avoid duplicate rows aggregation” option.
Then save it and reopen the report .

Anish

I am attempting to sync my phone with iTunes and I keep getting an error message 42001 so my phone can not sync with iTunes... What is this error message and what can I do to fix this problem and sync my phone to iTunes?

Dear Apple team,
I recently bought an iphone3GS from USA and jail broke it. Since I heard the there are lots of disadvantages I thought to unlock it officially through the original owner (in copy). He assisted me and confirmed that he unlocked it with AT& T (See the attachment). According to the instructions I restored the phone. But it is not activating with “Activation server is currently not available, please try again or try with iTunes”
When I try with iTunes , it says “you haven’t inserted a SIM” even though I insert the original AT&T SIM.
My current location is Sri Lanka ,so don’t have any apple support.
Please help me to be a good fan of apple.

TS3694 itunes error (-42404) -- Okay, getting a little frustrated (but then again, who isn't a little frustrated?). I recently tried to upgrade iTunes software a few days ago but it failed. What is (-42404) error code mean?

itunes error (-42404) -- Okay, getting a little frustrated (but then again, who isn't a little frustrated?). I recently tried to upgrade iTunes software a few days ago but it failed. What is (-42404) error code mean?
I get the following:
(1) iTunes - The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you? Yes/No
(2) iTunes - The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones could not be repaired. Please reinstall iTunes if you wish to use these devices. OK
(3) iTunes error message - A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes. (-42404) OK
(4) iTunes error message - We could not complete your iTunes Store request. A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes. (-42404) There is an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later. OK
Okay, so I decided to uninstall and reinstall. Funny, iTunes can be found in a program folder, but it does not show up in the programs list. I tried to look for it using the command prompt ("wmic" --> "product get name") but iTunes is not there either. Doesn't even show up in the registry to try to uninstall.
I just want to "properly" uninstall and reinstall iTunes (plus the other usual suspects, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, & Apple Application Support). If anyone out there has any suggestions, please help! (I'm running Windows Vista -- don't judge/laugh) :-)

Okay, feeling like an idiot, but will share so others don't have to. I rebooted my computer and that enabled iTunes to reappear in the programs list. Don't appear to be having the same problems as before (no error messages now). Problem solved!

# Multivalue error in cross tab

Hi All,
I am using BO-launch pad 4.1,sp2 Data is from Bex-query using CMC.
Table: Cross tab
1)Dimenssion obj: CO-object
2)Attributs: Co-obj-wbs elemt,costcentr,order
3)Measure:Budjet aproval overall, Budjet for annul,Actual cost, Actual quantity,planned cost, planned quantity
when drag i dimension co-obj,attributes and all measures it showing values but when i drag attributes and measures (No need to drag dimension) it is showing in crosstab
# Multivalues error in all measure fields.
Can you plz give me suggestions on this.
Thanks
Ganesh

Hello,
Please check if you have used exception aggregation on measures in the BEx queries. These aggregation might be using some dimensions as reference characteristics. And if that dimensions are not included, you might get these multivalue error.
Good Day !!

In iphoto i get this error for a video that I wanted to play - The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -54.) what is that error and how to fix it?

The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -54.)
My Apple course instructor felt it would be smart to create all in iphoto dragging in all videos and photos to one spot.
I now get these errors and they wont play.
What is the error telling me and how do I fix it and get the video to play please??
Is it true iphoto will be replaced in this New Year and if so does anyo

No it didn't at all.
I went to the finder and saw several of the same .
When I called Apple they told me not to delete anything using the Finder… odd I thought, as that was the only way I could see the multiple videos and photos.
Do you think there is any harm in deleting from there directly if I have a good playable copy?
Thank you both for responses.
The clips/videos some are from iPhone 4.
I opened it manually and found 4 copies of most of the same videos, same names, some with slight variations. Don't know why.
Some are titled from iphoto /Masters don't know why that happened
Now I also have some clips with white dotted line on grey where the clip used to be? why would that occur??
In my finder there are now 97000 images. Yet I only have 22,000 in iphoto. Where are the rest located and why so many duplicates?
Have I checked a box somewhere and need to address that?
Thank you for any insight and guidance.

What does this error mean? Error: Access violation at address 0053DD46

I am trying to run diff reports using batch scripts, and its very puzzling that some of the diff report scripts within the batch script are running and some are not, there is no consistency to what is getting errored out.
I then tried running them manually in foreground on the client and I get the same issue. Has anyone encountered this issue? What do I make of it?,

This is issue is coherent in DRM version 11.1.1.2
Whenever a property is deleted, the references to that property would still exists/stored in tables. The next version of DRM is made to address this issue, where in it takes care of removing all references whenever we delete the property.
Cause: Properties was deleted from DRM client but the value was still stored in the compare table for Difference export and causing export to fail.
Solution: Need to recreate the deleted properties and remove the properties in the exports and delete the properties.
Going Forward: Instead of deleting the properties we need to remove the property from the export and hide the property.
Hope this helps.
