Anyone know where to find the "Remove Missing Parents" command to fix this error?

What version of NX are you running and what type of feature was updating when this 'Alert' was displayed? If you open up your Part Navigator the feature responsible for this alert should also have a similar yellow 'Alert' icon appended to the icon showing the feature type.

BTW, this was only an 'Caution Alert' (as indicated by the 'Yellow' rather than 'Red' symbol) and as such can generally be ignored. Your model should've updated OK despite this situation.

I see this error in an edit rollback of a Measure Bodies feature. All the measure measurements created by the feature are listed as 0. This is in an assembly part, not a model. There are no features besides the measure bodies.

Without actually being able to see your file there is little that I can say as to what might have caused this.

Does this situation cause any problems other then you seeing the 'Alert'? If so, what happens? If the Measurement is recording a value of Zero and appears to not be pointing to anything, why not simply delete it?

This is the only place I have seen this alert. The measure bodies is used to generate the mass of the part. This mass is called out on the drawing so the number automatically updates instead of having to be manual typed in.

Is the solid you are trying to measure fully loaded? If a lightweight representation is loaded your results may not be what you expect.
 
Also, has the components which were being measured been replaced or another component substituted for it? The Measurement function will only 'remeber' the actual bodies referenced from the ORIGINAL component(s), even if the new component(s) has the same name.

I have added and removed a measure body feature 3 to 4 times in this final state. All of them result in 0 values.
