Symptom
The delete facts option in a model does not respect the data access control (DAC) delete column setting in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC).
Environment
- SAP Analytics Cloud (Enterprise)
Cause
- The delete permission for a member of the Version dimension refers to the deletion of the dimension member itself and not to the underlying fact data.
- Fact data deletion is controlled by the "maintain" privilege which covers data changes and there is no differentiation between setting a value to zero or deleting it.
- If a user has write access to a dimension member via DAC, then that user will be able to update the fact data for that dimension by entering a zero (0), clearing the data in the table and publishing it, or going into the model and selecting the delete facts option.
