Symptom
- The issue arises when setting up an OData query based on the G/L Account Items data source.
- The "Master data characteristics" are missing in the data source, which are present in another tenant.
- The missing characteristics are needed to make use of the OData queries, such as cost center ID and Cost center name.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to Business Analytics work center
- Go to Design Data sources
- Highlight the data source: "G/L Account items" and press "Expose"
- Highlight the data source again and press: "Build OData Queries"
Cause
The underlying master data sources are not exposed, hence the Master data characteristic fields are not visible.
Resolution
- Go to Business Analytics work center.
- Navigate to Design Data Sources.
- Search for the desired data source.
- Go to column Documentation and click on the icon.
- Search for the desired characteristics and note the column "Master Data - Data Source".
- Once the Master Data Source is identified, expose it.
