3314948 - How to avoid "Some of your data changes can't be published because of validation rules. Those changes will be lost" error when running a data action and publish

Symptom

  • Using validation rules and the data actions. 
  • The warning message appears when the data action completes and publishes, "Some of your data changes can't be published because of validation rules. Those changes will be lost." 
  • How to find the validation rule causing the warning? What is the best practice? 

Environment

SAP Analytics Cloud (Enterprise) 2022.2.6 

Reproducing the Issue

  • Run data action and publish using a model where validation rules are configured. 
  • When validation warning occur ""Some of your data changes can't be published because of validation rules. Those changes will be lost.", how to find out which validation rule is causing the warnng? 

Cause

  • It's necessary to make sure all dimensions that are used in any one of the defined validation rules are added to the table axes (either to the rows or to the columns).
  • The combination of dimension members associated with the grid cells which have a validation warning would point to the relevant (incomplete/violated) validation rules.
  • As a given combination of dimensions will always be covered by one specific validation rule, the invalid member combination will need to be covered in this relevant validation rule.
  • There is no support for pointing out the specific validation rule.

Resolution

For "violated" validation rules, refer to What You Can Do from Check Validation Rule Results and Warnings for Planning of SAC Help Documentation.
