Upgrade Issues with PerformancePoint 2010 Filters

Back to all articles

Issue: Migrate a PerformancePoint dashboard from MOSS 2007 to SharePoint 2010. We used the Import PerformancePoint Content feature to import existing dashboards from the PerformancePoint database and this saved us a lot of effort. However, filters failed with this rather obscure error:

121611_0116_UpgradeIssu1

After tracing with SQL Profiler and looking at the Windows Event log, we saw the following almost as useless error):

Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.AdomdErrorResponseException: Query (1, 7) Parser: The syntax for ‘{‘ is incorrect.

In this case, the dashboard is using a Time Intelligence filter mapped to an Analysis Services dimension.

Resolution: The upgrade process has mapped the filter’s formula in the connection to the scorecard. We fixed the issue by mapping the filter data source (not formula), as shown in the screenshot below. In this case, the CompareDay is the data source name.
