3387638 - "Member is already booked" when adding an existing member in a table with unbooked options in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

When all the dimensions of a table are enabled with the Unbooked option, the existing member cannot be added via the Add member feature and error "Member is already booked" is displayed.

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud (Enterprise)

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to a story which at least one dimension not ticked with the unbooked option.
  2. Right click a dimension header in the table.
  3. Add member.
  4. Add an existing member.
  5. It works.
  6. Show unbooked for all the dimensions of this table.
  7. Add the same member in step 4.
  8. Error "Member is already booked" is displayed.

Cause

Whe all the dimensions of a table are enabled with the Unbooked option, all existing members are already shown in the table.
In this situation, we cannot add an existing member via add member and error "Member is already booked" is displayed.
It's the designed behavior. We cannot add repeated members via add member.  

Resolution

This works as designed.
