3557905 - Unable to select conditions while editing filter in import query from BW model in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

Unable to select conditions while editing filter in import query from BW model in SAC

Environment

SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD 2024.21.8

Connection - import

Data Source - BW

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Login to SAC.
  2. Navigate to Modeler > Public Dimensions 
  3. Open any public dimension > Data Management
  4. Click on import button and select data source.
  5. In 'Select a Data Source' window select 'BW' and then select any BW connection.
  6. Search the default object.
    Notice that in 'Build SAP BW Query' window while trying to apply filter on dimensions the drop-down menu of conditions is functioning like simple plain text, not like a drop-down menu.

 

 

Cause

  • This is designed behavior
  • The filter conditions being displayed as plain text instead of dropdown menu is actually the correct filtering behavior for the BW data source. 

Resolution

The display of filter conditions as plain text, rather than a dropdown menu, is the intended filtering behavior for the BW data source.
