Filter field gives error message, is 'undefined'

After making a change in my tabular cube and refreshing my report, an yellow error icon shows up next to one of my filters, and when I hover over it, it says '[table of the field] . undefined'.

 

Any idea where this may come from, and what reflexes I can have whenever I see this kind of errors ?

Hi  @Anonymous ,

 

What kind of change have you made?Did you change the column header or table structure?

 

Best Regards,

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Is the Filter based on a custom field, column or measure?  If the changes you made modified a field or table that the filter is dependent upon that could cause this error.  It also could be that after your changes, you need to refresh the data to get the change to flow all the way through to the filter.  Or, does your filter have a selection on it that is no longer valid after your changes?  Let us know!

 

I would appreciate Kudos if my response was helpful. I would also appreciate it if you would Mark this As a Solution if it solved the problem. Thanks!

Hi @collinq ,

 

The filter is based on a column, I don't recall changing the View that it's from. What's weird is that when I delete it and re-put the same field in the filters zone, it works like a charm.
