Cause

The issue has been identified and tracked under ID ADAPT00374958.

Resolution

Hot Fixes or Service Packs address this issue as indicated below. With the update(s), a third option has been added to the Business Element Filter Combination called 'AND (not enforced)'. This third option allows joins to remain as "AND," but are not enforced.
