"primary point does not lie on secondary axis, tertiary not allowed"

Having a small hurdle to overcome here, would greatly appreciate a little advice if you got the time.
Profile of a Surface execution scenerio...(dmis cad, not ++)


Primary -A- = Zplus plane (leveled and z origin)
Secondary -B- = Line on Yminus face, edge of zplus (rotated xplus about zplus and y origin)
Tertiary -C- = circle in hole on Yminus face (x origin)

(As Drawing indicates)

Aligned with CAD, Online

Series of points (contour in an area within zplus), as a Feature Set. FCF set up and defined datums accordingly.
When clicking create, Message window appears which states... "primary point does not lie on secondary axis, tertiary not allowed".

Obviously, I need to correct something here, but am unsure of what, and again would greatly appreciate any advice given.
Thank You.

    Im dragging up a post from the past.

    My question more revolves around whether I should be doing the steps suggested or not.

    I have a 3,2,1 datum system defined on the print, these are labeled A,B,C respectively. I then have a callout for a profile of a surface to A|B|C which then shows the error mentioned in the OP. The B datum, (created using the two points) is certainly the problem as it is clearly at an angle to datum A.

    Wouldn't creating a plane along the line change the datum's and how they function?

    For now I have created the dimension in Legacy but this certain customer does like to see the DRF used, on the report.


    Is it meant to be perpendicular to A?
