How do I import both ID (identifier) and description master data into a dimension (into a blank or existing model) in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)?

• SAP Analytics Cloud

1. Connect to SAP Analytics Cloud.
2. Create a blank model via "Create > Model" and "Start with a blank model".
3. Add a New or Existing Account dimension.
4. Add a New or Existing Generic dimension called "Test".
5. Import data into the model from a sheet with no column headers.
6. Notice that the column for the description of "Test" does not get mapped to Dimension "Test".
7. Notice that there is no way to map the column for the description of "Test" to Dimension "Test".

Add column headers to your data file before importing the model that match the dimension name.
