Data in a SAS Financial Management data-entry form or report might be incorrect as a result of a problem that occurs in the method that is used for querying the SAS Financial Management fact sets.

This problem can occur with certain fact queries. Fact queries are used in rules, writeback, and data seeding. Fact queries contain incorrect fact-exclusion information under two posssible scenarios:

• In the first scenario, if the second or third fact sets contain more unique members in a specific dimension than the first fact set, the fact is marked as invalid, even though it should be valid.
• In the second scenario, a member in the first fact set is invalid. If a valid member in the second or third fact set has the same member index as the invalid member in the first fact set, the fact is marked as invalid.
