PM85782: REPORT RETURNS ALL ZERO VALUES WHEN USING DYNAMIC QUERY MODE BUT RUNS FINE IN COMPATIBLE QUERY MODE

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In IBM Cognos BI 10.2 a report returns all zero values when
  using Dynamic Query Mode but it runs fine in Compatible Query
  Mode.  If the slicer called Unioned Period Set (slicer) is
  removed from the report for DQM, then the correct data is
  returned.  Expression for the Unioned Period Set (slicer)
  is:?union ( [Selected Year Period Set (slicer)], [Prior Year
  Period Set (slicer)] )?Issue appears to possibly be related to
  the?Selected Year Period Set (slicer):??#prompt (
  'Selected_Month', 'token', 'periodsToDate ( [Time Period], item
  ( filter ( members ( [Dimensional].[Date].[Date].[Month] ),
  [Dimensional].[Date].[Date].[Month].[Relative Month] = 0 ), 0 )
  )', 'periodsToDate ( [Time Period], ', '', ' )'  )#?
