Hi there

I get a "Process Failed" message from an action button. No error log or entry in Tm1Server log.
Any ideas?

Many thx!

TM1 Perspectives ? PAfE ? A sheet dragged on a PAW dashboard ?

The process exists ? For instance, in case the process name could be retrieved dynamically from a cell.
Process parameters are fine ?

Make sure all the parameters you're passing include an "=" in the box. Easy to miss this if using named ranges.

dimAccount (wrong)
=dimAccount (correct)

May be user doesn't have rights for the process.

In this case I see the same behaviour
User clicks on button, see error window and nothing in log file

This is an indication that the process did not get triggered at all, and usually this is due to security access or the name of process is not spelled correctly.

If the name of Process is in a reference cell then check the cell, i usually use Named Ranges for process name, process params, and all other properties of action button

1) No security rights to run the process;
2) There are many models on one server
and a different model is specified for the button.
Logs are written to a log file of a different model.
