3534450 - Issue with importing master data hierarchy level in SAC

Symptom

With SAC Import job from BW, if the hierarchy changes on BW side, SAC is not able to detect the hierarchy change automatically

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud
  • SAP Business Warehouse

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create an Import Job in SAC against a BW datasource
  2. Select the Hierarchy
  3. Change the drill level to 3
  4. Save the import job
  5. In BW the Hierarchy is changed to 4
  6. When you then edit the Import Job to use the 4 drill levels, the maximum value is still 3 as SAC does not allow for Hierarchy Level to be updated in the existing import jobs

Resolution

Development is working on this as part of overall BW Hierarchy import improvements

The only current workaround is to create a new import job which will then be able to take advantage of the additional Hierarchy level that has been added on the BW datasource
