1. Logon to SAC.
2. Open the problematic story.
3. Create a calculation dimension using Like() function. The formula looks like this: If (Like ([object], "*.Y.*"), "Yes", "NO").
4. Add this dimension to the table, we could see the function works.
5. Now try to edit the dimension.
   Note that the formula got changed: If ([object] Like , "*.Y.*", "Yes", "NO").
   Error also shows saying that the formular is incorrent and needs to be corrected.
6. Modify the formula back to correct one, re-edit the calculation again, same issue occurs.
   This issue occurs when using some specific object, no issue if uisng other object.

The cause is under investigation by developer group.
