CubeView Override depends on current row member

We have our UD1 parents tagged with one base UD1 in Text8. For each UD1 parent in a cube view row, we need to have a column which has the base UD1 at POV to allow user inputs. Tried XFBR, UD8, Get Data Cell and Member List function.  

The tricky part is the |MFUD1| can never reach any external functions, and UD8 can not post it back to the intersection in overrides.

Thanks in advance!

Base UD1 is to be retrieved, that was understood. Maybe I was a bit unclear

The option with the CVUD1 was in case you wanted or could live with only 1 parent in the row and the related base in the col

The option with the ML would allow you to list all parents and the related 1 base, but with a changed design, parent and base in the rows

If it had to be all/multiple dynamic parents in the row and the related base in the col, then go with option Dynamic Cube Views

I’m not sure how the CV is excepted to look like / behave but if you e.g. have a filter param in the CV UD1 POV (e.g. parent x) you can pass the same param or |CVUD1| to e.g. a MF or XFBR which then looks up Text8 and return the base…
If you want a list of all parents and indented to each,  the 1 related base (row instead of column), you could create a ML

Another option, if it had to be dynamic rows/cols.., would be a dynamic CV (see DCS)

The UD1 Parents are rows in the CV, therefore, CVUD1 is not an option. The parent UD1 are the only rows in the CV, base UD1 is not anywhere in the CV. Let me read about dynamic CV, thanks!

I got it worked by using dynamic cubeview in an assembly with a little coding. Thank you so much!
