Note. When %1 or %2 appears in this table, it denotes that the actual error message includes context-specific

information. For example, the Invalid Dimension %1 error message would yield the error Invalid dimension

PRODUCTS in the Output window if a rule referred to a nonexistent PRODUCTS dimension.

Error Message Description

A dimension ar

gument cannot be used here.

An invalid arg

ument was passed to the function. The function

does not take a dimension as an argument. Please check the

All dimensi

expression arguments are declared.

All the dime

nsion arguments m ust be declared before expression

arguments are declared. Dimension arguments are declared

with a prefix of $, and expression arguments are declared with a

prefix of @

. For example:

ARGUMENTS($DIM, @ExprToLookup, @Condition,⇒

@Directio

n := #FORWARD);

All required arguments must be declared before any

optional arguments are declared.

Optional arguments should be placed at the end of the

declaration. If there are two or more option al arguments, place

the most op

tional argument last. For example:

ARGUMENTS($Dim, @ExprToLookup, @Condition,⇒

@Directio

n := #FORWARD);

In this example, @ Direction is an optional argument and is

placed aft

er the non-optional @Condition argument.

Note. Optional arguments should have a default value.
