Business Analyst Report

[CraigLimbert]

I created a report in the report building in BA10. I can run the report using the evaluate site at 3, 5, 10, 20-mile and the numbers come out correct. If I re-run the trade area using the same report in the same map frame anything in the 10-mile and up column comes up with a zero value. Any ideas on the cause of this?

Try going to Business Analyst Preferences and then the Data tab and then select Block Apportionment instead of Hybrid and let me know if you were able to receive number for the larger rings.

Additionally you might try installing a patch we've made available for Business Analyst 10:
http://resources.arcgis.com/content/patches-and-service-packs?fa=viewPatch&PID=78&MetaID=1659

This does fix issues when running the same custom report twice, but likely only when you've modified the custom report after the first run.  Either way it is good to be up-to-date on our latest fixes.

Note that I tested your scenario using the custom Area Detailed Report and didn't see any problems with the output the second time.

Kyle,
I installed the patch after installing BA10. I replicated this again using a generic ESRI report template. If you try to run the report (apportionment set to hybrid) at 5, 10, 20-mile radii it will run fine the first time, using the same trade area run reports and the output for 5-miles is fine 10 & 20 are all zeros.

Usiel,
Your fix worked. When I switched to "block apportionment" the report output worked for both the generic ESRI reports as well as my custom reports.

Craig,

Glad the work around worked.  Block Apportionment does cause a bit of performance hit with larger areas.  One thing I might suggest checking is setting the data apportionment back to Hybrid and then hitting the Advanced button which should bring up the advanced tolerance settings window and then try hitting the 'reset to default'.  I've attached a screenshot of what it should normally look like.  If this still produces zeros with hybrid then just switch back to block apportionment.

I set the apportionment back to hybrid and restore the defaults did not work. I up'd the first apportionment value to 50 and the report ran correctly. The work around works for the time being.
