3746112 - Warning or error when using new measure created after 2025 QRC4 (2025.21) in data action or data copy action

Symptom

  • Any action copying data from a measure created after 2025 QRC4 (2025.21) to a measure created before this version may result in either a warning message or failure due to difference in decimal measure precision.
  • Possible symptoms:
    • Warning message appears during data action validation: "Value from DATA Function will be automatically converted to match the rest of this expression. The value range and decimal places may change."
    • Warning may occur during script execution: "The target value(s) may be different due to different data types"
    • Error can occur if value in new measure exceeds what is possible in old measure: "The data action couldn't run successfully on version XXX. Step X tries to copy some values that exceed the numeric value range of a target measure"
