Incompatible objects

[S4E]

I am attempting to run a query from a database that has eight (8) tables. Of the eight tables, I have two sets of four tables that share a common variable, with one table from each set sharing a common variable.

When I attempt to run my query, I receive the following message:

Incompatible combination of objects. (QP0004)

Has anyone had a similar problem?

Is this a join problem?

Thanks for any assistance that can be provided.

Not really a join problem. You should look into the existing contexts of the universe.
If the universe that is used does not allow for fetching objects from differents contexts you will get the 'incompatible objects' warning.

If the term context does not ring a bell, you should check out designer guide..

This means you have a calculated measure that comes from 2 tables.

But, you also have other measures that come from the same 2 tables.
