SSAS cube: "attribute key not found" error
I just spent over an hour trying to figure out why my data tables were correct but I was getting an error about an attribute key not being found (i.e. an unlinkable foreign key).   I finally figured out that processing one dimension at a time before processing the cube can get fix whatever is out of sync.  [Right-click on the dimension in Solution Explorer to process it separately.]

This depends highly what exactly happened.
You are right, if you run into that error during normal development on the same server and the same SSaS database.

But if you run into that error during deployment of the XMLA script on a second server, let's say the production system and you got this error, check the default collation of the server/database. I run into that stuff, because someone configured the server to use Latin1_General_CI_AI as default collation!

Thanks a lot, this really did the trick and I never knew this to be possible...

Can I ask you how you can schedule this too?

Thanks,

Chris

You could create XMLA scripts and schedule them using the SQL Agent, right?
