3756679 - 'Invalid selection for characteristic" warning appears after reopening hierarchy node filter values in Floorplan Manager (FPM) for Web Dynpro ABAP (WDA) application

Symptom

  • "invalid selection for characteristic" error message occurs when opening the "Filter" >  "Select Filter Value" after selecting a hierarchy within a Floorplan Manager (FPM) for Web Dynpro ABAP (WDA) application (e.g., Group Data Analysis).
  • After applying multiple profit center hierarchy node filters and closing the dialog, the last applied filter value is automatically modified (for example, the slash "/" between hierarchy ID and node ID is removed and a space is inserted), leading to a warning on re-open.
  • The same behavior can occur in custom analytical queries.

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
