  • Some writable regions of a form are unavailable when you create the form by using the PerformancePoint 2007 Add-in for Excel Report Wizard.
  • When you use Microsoft Office Excel 2007 together with a protected worksheet, the data entry cell style is not applied to a writable area of the worksheet.
  • When you refresh a worksheet, a workbook, or a matrix in Excel 2007, cells that were unlocked earlier may again become locked.
  • The property value for a filter does not display the filter selection in a form. Instead, it displays the member label.
  • You cannot select the members of a Member View that is used in a Microsoft Excel filter.
    The page filter tree is always fully expanded when it is opened. This causes performance issues when large dimensions are used.

Consider the following scenario:

  • You create a new dimension and add it to a model by using the PerformancePoint add-in for Microsoft Excel.
  • In Excel, you create an assignment to the model.
  • You save and close the workbook.
  • You the open the workbook and try to add an annotation to the assignment.
    In this scenario, you receive an unhandled exception error.
  • When you use a SQL rule as part of a calculation, the results that are returned are incorrect.
  • Note If you use a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) query or a native SQL query as part of the same calculation, the results that are returned are correct.

When you try to select members from a member view in PerformancePoint Add-in for Excel, you receive the following error message:

  • Hierarchy contains a problem. Unable to launch member selector.
  • When you try to retrieve assignments, you experience performance issues in PerformancePoint Add-in for Excel. This problem occurs when many users have assignments.

Monitoring Fixes

The scoring engine returns a score of 0 if the following conditions are true:

  • You use a stated score.
  • The Target value is NULL.
  • The Excel Services Report adds too much white space to the Web report. The report does not fully use the size that is provided in the PerformancePoint Server Web part.
  • The "Export to Excel" feature and the "Export to PowerPoint" feature do not correctly handle NULL values for images.
  • When you use the Microsoft Excel Export: % formatted data operation, the results appear incorrectly in Excel.
  • When you use the "Export to Excel" feature to export a text target value, the exported text may be formatted incorrectly.
  • If the user has not previewed the Scorecard, the conditional visibility does not work for all languages.
  • When you select the "multi-select tree" display method, the Scorecard is displayed incorrectly for a filter. The Scorecard is typically displayed on an incorrect column.
    The Show Details option displays incorrect data when an Analytic View Designer is in a multidimensional expression (MDX) mode.
  • When you try to view the PerformancePoint Server 2007 dashboard that is inside an inline frame (IFRAME) tag on a Web page, you receive an "Access denied" error message.
