Can you please provide more information? Also, ensure the format of what you are looking up on is a list formatted line item.

hey I Dm'ed you to provide further context -- I think the issue is that I didn't assign a parent to the list, but now it says I can't because they share a common ancestor?

2. If one of the dimension is not having a top level in the source hierarchy.

Thanks
