Symptom
- Create two models with several dimensions and enable the Level-Based hierarchy for one of these dimensions in these two models respectively
- Create a story based on these two models and enable the linked dimension based on the Level-Based hierarchy dimension in these two models
- Observe that the "ID" and "Description" property of this dimension would not appear in the "Link On" list on "Link Dimensions" panel under one of these two models, meaning this "ID" and "Description" property could not be used when configuring the linked dimension in this story
Environment
