I see the following Error: Error in 'PivotProcessor': Error in 'PivotRowCol': the dataset 'RootObject' has no field.
while creating a Pivot. Created a DataModel and a Dataset and I selected the field as well in the dataset. But when I save the pivot I am getting this error. Any help is much appreciated.

I figured it out. My data set i was using had spaces in the column names. Once I replaced the spaces with underscores and rebuilt my pivot off of the new data set it worked.
