When I refresh data in Desktop in a report, it works fine. However, when a new user refreshes the data, they receive this error: "Column reference to 'field_name' in table 'table1' cannot be used with a variation 'Date' because it does not have any. OLE DB or ODBC error: internal connection fatal error. Error state: 15. Token: 4."
This is a new user that I have set up to refresh reports. Other reports are refreshing fine for them. I have had several other users refreshing this report and never had an issue. Is there some setting that this new user has different from the rest of us?
Thank you.
@tlipkin , that is strange.
You can try.
Home -> Data Transformation -> Data Source Setting -> Clear Permission, try again with credentials
Or check the date format of user system, make sure it is same as your system (windows date format)
