Problem Note 50156: Duplicate dimension members can be loaded to the Solutions Data Mart
 |  |  |  |  |
If you create dimension members in the SAS® Financial Management Studio Dimensions workspace, you are prevented from creating duplicate dimension members.
For example, if the dimension member Balance Sheet already exists in the ACCOUNT hierarchy and you attempt to add a new member BALANCE SHEET, you are notified that the code value is already in use.
However, if new dimension members are loaded from the StageFM library, the case is not checked and the duplicate members mentioned above are not detected. Therefore, in the ACCOUNT hierarchy, you would have two dimension members Balance Sheet and BALANCE SHEET.
Although no error is detected when the data is loaded, it is possible that other features, such as creating a CDA table, might fail.
