Calculated Dimensions used in Charts are not supported for use with NPrinting On Demand

[Frank_S]

Description:

• The use of Calculated Dimensions cause NPrinting On Demand executions to fail.
• This is an example of a calculated dimension: 

• Using any type of calculated dimension in a QlikView or Qlik Sense chart, list box or table will result in an error when used as selection criteria in executing an NPrinting On Demand report.

Environment:

• All supported versions of NPrinting

Resolution:

• Move the calculated dimension into the load script of your QVW or QVF.
• R&D has confirmed that this is considered working as designed. See Known Issues and Limitations any NPrinting Release notes. (see attached example).

Cause:

• NPrinting is only able to process direct selections in a QVW or QVF. Calculated dimensions are derived dimension values that NPrinting is unable to process directly
