Symptom
- Story input control does not reflect translations made at the dimension member level.
- Notice a problem with the Translations at the model level.
Dimension members translations are done at model level. However, after applying translations, we are verifying at the story level that they are not reflected in the story itself.
Environment
- SAP Analytics Cloud
Reproducing the Issue
1. Login to SAC
2. Open the story created in English with Live Connection
see all the objects in English. Add Input Control based on Dimension
3. Go to Model relevant for the Story and translate the Dimension items to Deutsch. Observe all the items of the Dimension properly translated
5. Change the profile settings for the User to Deutsch. See the story refreshed and all the objects except Input Controls are in Deutsch.
Cause
The behavior is by design, persisted member values inside a story are not dynamically translated when the story is opened.
This is mainly to avoid performance issues.
Resolution
Workaround:
Save copies of the story for different languages
