Local Date Table Error

Hi,

 

My model was working fine until I made some changes to how it operates. Now, it's giving me the below error:

Table 'LocalDateTable_0f293c40-125a-4fa7-b42d-c26262d8fda8' with ShowAsVariationsOnly property set to '1' must be a target of a variation when variation notation is enabled.

 

I tried following these instructions to no avail, which essentially say to disable auto date/time, refresh, enable it again, and refresh.

 

Any ideas on what causes this problem and/or how to fix it?

 

Thanks!
