APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• APEX point in powercube doesn't show in Analysis Studio if a
  member of only 1 group/role
  
  Easy to reproduce using sample Great ourtdoors sales.mdl
  1. Transformer 11 open sample sample Great ourtdoors sales.mdl
  2. Menu Diagram -> Catagories
  3. Click on 'Custom Views'
  4. Add one node like node 1
  5. On Dimensions: click on 'Margin range'
  6. On right diagram, click on '> 65%'    for column 'Margin
  range'
  7. click on 'Apex'   ( If Apex is grey, click on 'Customize'
  button on the left below window 'Dimensions'
  8 close 'Diagram Catagories' window
  9. add 'Custom Views' node 1 into PowerCubes 'The Sample
  Outdoors Co." as a sub node
  10. Create selected PowerCube and Publish PowerCube as Data
  Source and Package
  11. Goto Analysis studio, open the new created or publish
  powerCube on step 10
  
  You will not see the sub-node '>65%' , while if you add 'Margin
  range' from left to right window in the 'Measure' , you can see
  '>65%' in it. It just could not show the sub node on the left.
  
  If we add another sub node 2 in above step 4 , then it will show
  2 sub node in analysis studio, it is just not able to show 1
  member in it.
  
  It was a old defect long time ago that existed in cognos 7 or 8
  , it was fixed for a while, now it is coming back in Cognos 11 ,
  please help fix it again.
  
  I found the old defect, while not able to access that link any
  more, in the wellspring, I can see the page title, while click
  on it , it is not a valid link any more.
