All Developers - BusinessObjects bug

I am posting this message on behalf of a frustrated colleague…

If during development of a Business Objects Universe, anyone should experience the loss of all joins from each context, resulting in strange reporting results (and sometimes extra hours of work), please please please:

  • try to remember exactly what you did before you noticed that the
    joins were gone
  • report it to BO support even if you cannot repeat the problem
    and each time it happens

This is an intermittent error which BO cannot repeat and therefore refuse to attempt to fix

Maybe if enough people experience this problem they may make more of an effort

Thanks

Suz

We experienced the same problem at a client site about a month ago (Busobj 4.1.2 with Sybase). Unfortunately, I don’t remember the exact sequence of events now. However, we did have to go through the exercise of re-doing the contexts and of course re-testing!
