This is GP 2010 with Management Reporter FP1 - an old version, yes I know. Don't know if this happens in any new versions but we shall see.
This all started when we needed to run Changer for a client. The first thing you do before Changer is run CheckLinks in GP against all the Financial series tables. Everything looked fine in GP after the change but Management Reporter stopped working. All we got were "unknown error" messages for every report from ever user.
I actually got to the point of reinstalling Management Reporter on a test server and created a new report and row definition pointing to the production GP database. When I was trying to create a new column I received:
"The operation could not be completed due to a problem in the data provider framework"
That was an indication that something was wrong in GP - a very strong one.
A Google search turned up this forum post that indicated there might be a blank budget ID. Sure enough CheckLinks had created one. After deleting that blank budget MR was back and working again.
