Limits on rolling calculations

I seem to be hitting a limit when using field calculations that are dependent on previous results.  For example:

  • fieldA = metric1 + metric2
  • fieldB = fieldA + metric3
  • fieldC = fieldB + metric4
  • fieldD = fieldC + metric5
  • fieldE = fieldD + metric6
  • fieldF = fieldE + metric7
  • fieldG = fieldF + metric8
  • fieldH = fieldG + metric9
  • fieldI = fieldH + metric10

and so on...

I'm hitting the limit around 9 or 10 rolling calculations.  The formulas are valid but when I add the field into the chart, I get the "Data Set Configuration Error".  What's more insane is sometimes I can substitute the calculated field with the formula for the previous calculation and it works.  For example:

Instead of fieldI = fieldH + metric10 (which would fail), I have to use fieldI = (fieldG + metric9) + metric10

But the formulas get more complex and again, it doesn't always work.  Anyone else seen this or know a workaround?
