  2. Go to the home screen button > click on browse >click on “dimensions”.
  3. Select target dimension and import data file under Data Management tab.

  5. A new member called "root" is added to the dimension. It shows Validation error on member <root>.
  6. Save the dimension and then click on <root> and delete it.
  7. Go out of the dimension and back into the member list.

Cause

There's an unassigned member and "<root>" text from hierarchy column.
