Symptom
- Text associations do not work when creating an analytic model using another analytic model as the fact source.
- The “T” indicator appears on the dimension, indicating text should be available.
- When previewing the resulting analytic model, only IDs are shown and texts are missing.
- No error message is shown.
Environment
SAP Datasphere Version 2026.9.0
Reproducing the Issue
- Create Analytic Model A on top of a fact view that uses dimensions with valid text associations and confirm texts appear when previewing Model A.
- Create Analytic Model B that uses Analytic Model A as its fact source.
- Preview Analytic Model B and observe that, although the “T” icon is shown on the dimension, only IDs are displayed and the texts are missing.
Cause
Product defect in certain releases where texts from text associations are not propagated when an Analytic Model is used as the fact source for another Analytic Model.
Resolution
A fix is planned for delivery with wave 2026.12.
