Symptom
1. When executing any multi action via a multi action starter in a story, the pop-up "Please wait while the multi action is running" does not close even when the multi action has completed successfully.
2. The script API call "MultiActionExecutionResponseStatus.Success" also fails to return any value and any script waiting for a return value from this function will be blocked.
3. Tables that contain data that are refreshed via multi-action will not show refreshed data unless the story is manually refreshed after completion of the multi-action.
Environment
- SAP Analytics Cloud QRC3 server side patch release 2025.14.17 and later
- SAP Analytics Cloud QRC4 server side initial release 2025.21
You can verify the server side patch version by going to "System" / "About" in your SAC tenant.
Reproducing the Issue
- Trigger a multi action from a story via a multi action starter
- Execute a multi action via a multi action calendar task
- Execute a multi action via script function
Cause
- If a multi action is run and the multi action has more than 1 step, the function call that updates the status of the multi action does not pass on the requestID. Because of this the multi action does not receive the status update.
- This issue occurred due to a new function call that has been introduced to support a deep hierarchy of calendar events that does not pass on the requestId to the status update, which is needed to update the multi action.
Resolution
- This issue will be resolved with the QRC4 update scheduled for the weekend of November 15-16.
- The temporary workaround for executing multi action via a story starter is to click on "Run in Background" button or check the option "Always run in background" so that the pop-up is not visible for users.
- There is no workaround for executing via script API other than to remove the API status check until the issue is resolved.
