Hi Ally,

Please perform the following test and update with the findings:-

1) Open the report in BI Launchpad and remove all the contents from the report of Query 2 (The query which has missing variables and objects)

2) Save this report with a different name

3) Try to open this in WebI Rich Client

Hi Manpreet

Followed your processes, It's ok.

But in fact, I removed all querys but one left in WebI, It's ok too.

WebI in rich client can just open 1 query that had saved by infoview. More than 1 query, The others would be lost.

Hi Ally ,

Check your server and clients are in at same patch level.We faced this , it was because of client and server were in different SP and patch.

Dear Sateesh

Server and client are at the same level. The error is still there.

Are you able to create a report in rich client on top of test2 universe alone ?
