4. In the 3rd formula parameter(POV), click "Ctrl + Space" to open the suggestion list.
5. Open Additional Dimensions and select one dimension.
6. Find no values showing as selection.

The syntax of the member formula "Model Link" does not allow to have local dimensions with the same name in both linked models, because technically they are two different dimensions, but they cannot be distinguished by the formula.

• This problem can be solved either by renaming the dimension in one of the models or by replacing both with one public dimension.
• Since dimensions in the SAP Analytics Cloud cannot be renamed or replaced in an existing model, it is necessary to recreate at least one of the models.
