Total specifier must be a valid field name

Tue, 28 Jun 2016 12:20:54 GMT

Hi all,

In my qvw if I make any selections in the list box I am able to see values in the Pivot chart.But if I clear all the selections in the list box I see the following error "Total specifier must be a valid field name".

My qvw file size is 65.8 MB. Almost all the fields in the qvw are used in the Pivot chart.

Same pivot chart is used in another qvw which is of size 14.4 MB there I am not facing this issue.

Do we have any limitation for Pivot chart?

Can anyone help me out what this error meant. And how to solve this error.

Attaching the screen shot for reference.

Thanks in advance.

Can you share what your expression looks like?

Hi Guys

I too get this type of error, it seems like it relates to the amount of data being shown rather than a problem with the expressions.
