Cause

Bug 377572: Unknown Error using Row Modifier, Reporting Unit restrictions on all FD columns and Consolidated Tree with one Unit (Company) not linked to a Column

Workarounds

Add a non-printing FD column to the column definition.  Another way is to make sure that all units (company units) in the reporting tree definition are linked to a column in the column definition.
