in a tool tip when your pointer hovers over an object.
You can also find object identifiers in the .mdl file. For more information, see the
Cognos Transformer Developer Guide.
TR0476
A category set was expected but not found. Either you have referred to a category
set by an object name or object identifier that Cognos Transformer is unable to
locate, or you have not referenced the category set.
This error occurs when a script that uses Model Definition Language (MDL)
requires an object and is unable to find it. In this case, the object is a category set.
The problem may be that the category set was not referenced, or that it was
referenced with an incorrect object name or object identifier.
Procedure
You can verify Cognos Transformer object names and identifiers on the Windows
interface. To make them visible, select the Object name and Object identifier
check boxes on the Titles tab of the Preferences property sheet. The object name
and identifier will appear in the title bar at the top of each property sheet, and also
in a tool tip when your pointer hovers over an object.
You can also find object identifiers in the .mdl file. For more information, see the
Cognos Transformer Developer Guide.
TR0500
You cannot move a category outside its drill-down path.
On the diagram for a dimension that has an alternate drill-down structure, you
have tried to move a category from one drill-down path to another.
Procedure
To avoid this problem, only move categories within the scope of their own
drill-down paths.
TR0501
A regular category cannot be the parent of a special category.
Under normal circumstances, the Cognos Transformer Windows interface does not
allow you to make a regular category the parent of a special category. However,
this error message may appear if you try to perform this action using an MDL
script.
Procedure
To resolve the problem, ensure that the ID numbers used in the MDL script refer to
objects for which the stated action is valid.
TR0502
You must specify a category code when you create a manual category.
