Here you can find solutions and suggestions, if you encountered an error message when entering data in a table.
You entered planning data into a table and an error message appeared telling you that updating the member's value failed due to dimension combination rules, cell locks, or other technical reasons.
If the aggregation type of the account dimension for this story is of type None, an error message appeared telling you that some member values couldn't be assigned the correct value due to dimension combination rules, cell locks, or other technical reasons.
| Possible Reason | How to resolve this issue |
|---|---|
| There's a dimension combination rule that defines this data cell as an invalid member combination for data entry. | Please ask your planning modeler to check the dimension combination rules defined for this model. See: Creating Dimension Combination Rules with Existing Attributes |
| One or more child cells are locked by cell locks and prevent you from entering data to this parent data cell. | Please check the cell locks in the table and unlock the affected cells. Then it will be possible to assign the member value and the parent cell can be updated with your data entry. See: About Value Lock Management |
