    The reason you got no values in your debug is probably the same reason you're getting the error. Something you're trying to use is not set to anything.

    E.g., mbrEntityD, dimpkEntityD, or the result of "BRApi.Finance.Members.GetBaseMembers(si, dimpkEntityD, mbrEntityD.MemberId)"

    Check those one by one and I think you'll find it.

Hi Daniel, I saw that my empty variable is mbrEntityD, which is extracted in the following way.

Dim mbrEntityD As Member = BRApi.Finance.Members.GetMember(si, dimTypeId.Entity, drAllocRegister("DEntity").ToString)

And the values: Entity - 11201_12207.
Do you know how I can verify the information that getmember returns to me with those values?

    Sorry I'm not quite sure what you mean. My Guess is that 'drAllocRegister("DEntity").ToString' is not returning what you expect though.
