Thanks for replying, srini i tried step by step to save but still its not working when flags are added to map, syed i tried save for other reports it worked but for this report its not working. i will go through the Bugs which you shared and check the patch 1697119.

Is it something related to security ??

Thanks

There are multiple Bugs related to Saved Customization but nothing related to maps report but for the existing Bugs for saved customization the suggested solution is Patch 16597119

Bug 14108109 : CONDITIONMET - XML ERROR WHILE SAVING CURRENT CUSTOMIZATIONS

Bug 18057371 : SAVE CUSTOMIZATION:CURRENT XML INVALID WITH FOLLOWING ERRORS: BAD XML INSTANCE!

So are you facing Bad XML issue for saved customization for other report types too?

Below are the steps which you can follow and verify if you face Bad XML issue for other reports too, if you face the issue then apply Patch 16597119(Its available for your OBIEE Version)

1) Edit a dashboard and add a condition to a section

2) Save the dashboard, run it and try to 'Save current Customization'. A 'Bad xml instance!' error will pop up.

I would suggest to do customization bits and pieces instead of whole at once.

Error is at Line:2, Col:1874, Attribute 'boundingLayerID' is not declared for element 'container'
