SUMMARY:
This issue has been classified as a defect by Strategy.  The impact is limited to Strategy 9.4.1 when re-prompting a document that contains a dataset with a nested attribute object prompt and a metric object prompt. This issue has been addressed in 9.4.1 Hotfix 4.  Update to this hotfix version to receive this fix.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Follow the steps below to reproduce this issue in the Strategy Tutorial project.

•  Create an object prompt that contains all the attributes from the customer hierarchy.
  

• Create a similar object prompt for all attributes in the geography hierarchy and the product hierarchy so that there are a total of three object prompts.
  

• Create an object prompt using the Customer attributes prompt, the Geography attributes prompt, and the Product attributes prompt.

• Create a new object prompt that contains several metrics.
  

• Create a report with the nested attribute prompt and the metric prompt.
  

• Create a document with this report as a dataset. In Strategy Web run the document. On the first screen, choose an attribute prompt and several metrics.

• On the second screen, choose an attribute(s).
  

• The first time the document is run, all of the objects chosen appear in the dataset objects.
  

• Re-prompt the document. Choose the same answers for the prompts.
  

• One of the metrics chosen in the metric object prompt does not appear in the dataset objects, even though it was chosen as a prompt answer.
