source and targert modules are dimensioned by two different dimensions

 

How can we link these EMP02 and REP04 modules to get total car costs by the region and role. When I am using formula i.e car costs = emp02 .carcosts[lookup: sys08.region, lookup.sys08.role] it is throwing folowing error. I under stand my REP04 is dimensioned by Region and Role where source module Emp drivers dimension by Department and Role

    In your system module SYS08 make sure Role is formatted as a List:Role.

    You can only use LOOKUP and SUM on list formatted line items.

    See if that helps.

     here my role is list format. In My REP04 report Salary and Bonus I am able to write formulae those are reading source dimensions without any mapping issue. But for next line items it is showing mapping  error when I use SUM and formatting error when I use Lookup.

    Help appreciate.
