  • PerformancePoint Dimension Schema Error 225000210

    I'm a big fan of schemas in SQL 2005, and like to use them for both organisation and security. However, I've found that PerformancePoint Planning Business Modeller doesn't appear to like schemas as much as I do.... It seems that if you try to build a dimension from a table that is not in...
