3466133 - Limitation of custom BW time-based hierarchy in SAP Analytics Cloud

• The custom BW time hierarchy (e.g. 0CALYEAR, 0CALMONTH) on time-based calculation is not supported.
• The error message may be displayed: Invalid time dimension.

• SAP Analytics Cloud (Enterprise) 2024.2.21

1. Open the story.
2. Create custom time-hierarchy in BW backend.
3. Create a time-based calculation (e.g. Difference Form).
4. Choose the hierarchy of time dimension Calendar Year/Month to custom time hierarchy.
5. The table calculation has disappeared and the error message is shown.
6. If applying the custom time hierarchy in another table without the calculation, it's working fine.

• Now it's not supported for custom BW time-based calculation in SAP Analytics Cloud.
