Symptom
Time formatting does not change according to Profile Settings in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC).
Environment
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to SAC.
- Create an import/acquired model which contains 1 Dimension member, 1 Timestamp entry and 1 Measure value.
- Create a story based on the model.
- Insert a Text and add Dynamic Text, select Dimensions: [Timestamp]
- Check the added date and time => Time format: hh:mm:ss PM (which is 12 Hours format).
- Now check the user Profile Settings - Time Formatting => 24 Hour Format (hh:mm:ss) is set.
- If you change the Profile Settings - Data Access Language = Deutsch => time format will change to hh:mm:ss (24 Hour Format (hh:mm:ss))
Cause
The User Preference setting of Date Formatting & Time Formatting does not affect the dimension members formatting with Date or Time data type, but will impact date/time displayed for User’s information.
Resolution
Data formatting may be customized through the model definition and will be also impacted by the language selected via the Data Access Language setting.
