Missing Objects in a Report

We have a report that was working in production. We added 3 tables to the production database, thus adding them to that same universe. Now, this same report that was working prior to the addition of the tables, is not working and indicating that objects are missing, or obsolete. Any ideas! HELP!

Your universe designer might have deleted objects and recreated them with the same name. But Business Objects keeps a hidden “magic” object ID, and that ID has changed.

One option:
Restore your universe from a previous working version, make changes without deleting any objects.

If you do not have a Previous version of your Universe and if the number of reports that got affected are less, you can open those reports and add the missing objects again…which should get them to work fine.
