3523569 - Attributes information from SAP Datasphere Analytic Model could not be selected when creating a Chart in SAP Analytics Cloud

Symptom

Attributes information from SAP Datasphere Analytic Model could not be selected when creating a Chart in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC).

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud 2024.15.6
  • SAP Datasphere

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Login to SAC
  2. Create a Story based on SAP Datasphere Live data connection with an Analytic Model
  3. Create a table, confirm that there are attributes shown for a Date type dimension 
  4. Create a Bar chart
    => Note that for that Date dimension, the attributes do not show

Cause

  • This is a current limitation in charts.
  • Navigational attributes of "Date" type dimensions are explicitly hidden (using long standing logic) for SAC and SAP Datasphere models in most widgets. The only exception is the table widget which explicitly exposed the navigational attributes of "Date" type dimensions for SAC models for planning purposes. Datasphere model behavior was also extended in tables by this change.
