Symptom
Totals is displaying in data analyzer or table by default even though BW query settings > Show Result Rows is set to "Never".
Environment
SAP Analytics Cloud
Reproducing the Issue
- Open Data Analyzer from a chart/table
- Add a dimension to Rows
Cause
When table/chart is created initially it will take BW setting(e.g. Show Result Rows) as the default configuration.
But afterward if we change the backend setting, table/chart will not updated accordingly because SAC stores some meta data of data models (e.g. BW Queries) locally in visualizations and in the story/application.
When changing backend data models, it can occur that this locally stored meta data cannot be properly mapped to the changed meta data in the backend, resulting in errors that can break a visualization or even the whole story/application.
This may also cause issues in the models that could cause them to have to either be rebuilt or even need to be replaced with a new model.
Resolution
Please recreate the chart/table based on the same BW query and see if the current settings of "Show Result Rows" can be reflected in Data Analyzer report.
