  • 1.  PAW Calculation removal

    Posted Wed May 13, 2020 03:12 PM
    Hey all,
    I've just started experimenting with the 'create calculation' feature in PAW and hit a snag. I accidentally removed the PAW calculation via the subset editor instead of right-clicking on the calculation and selecting 'Remove'. So now I have a phantom calculation that I can't seem to add back to the workspace via the subset editor in order to 'Remove' it properly.
    The only way I know it still exists is the error I get when trying to create another calculation with the same name. This is the error I get (where '% of Labor' is the name of the calculation).
    "Error executing calculation. % of Labor_QSM: Member already exists (rte 94)" 

    Anybody else run into this or know how to "manage" the calculation members?

    Thanks!

    PAW version 2.0.52
    PA version 2.0.8

    Solved
    I had a saved book from before the calculation was removed via subset editor that I was able to re-open and remove the calculation via right click.

    If you're on the local version of paw you can view and edit the MDX directly. That would help you remove the calculation as well.

    Thanks Ryan. We're on IBM Cloud, but I just heard on the monthly AMA that it should be simple for the cloud team to enable. So I'm hopeful it could be added in the short-term.
