Symptom

As we described in KBA: 3138813 - TimesheetNote field only displays 40 characters of the Note in CDS view I_TIMESHEETRECORD,
"Long Text is currently not supported in Custom Analytical Queries".

There are detail workaround steps to enable longtext in Custom Analytical Query.
Note: There is one limitation which is that the longtext visible will be available in logon language. 
          Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
