2850581 - Changing dimension description does not reflect in existing story filters in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

The following behavior occurs in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC):

  • Changing a dimension description in a model from lower case to upper case not reflected in existing story filters.

Environment

SAP Analytics Cloud

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create the model from an Excel file.
  2. Create the story based on the model.
  3. Create a story filter selecting some of the dimension members (For Example: "Member1" and "Member2").
  4. Save the story.
  5. Open the model and change the description of the dimension members (For Example: "Member1" into "MEMBER1").
  6. Save the model.
  7. Go Back to the story and check the story filter.
  8. Notice, that the filter still shows "Member1".

Cause

"Static" filters (All the filters not using "All Members" option) do not reload the data for filters.

Resolution

  • The behavior is by design.
  • The filter values are only updated for "dynamic" filters (using "All Members" option).
