3800732 - Posted hierarchy nodes are not displayed in Datasphere Analytic Model

Symptom

After replicating a BW hierarchy into Datasphere, the Datasphere Analysis Model that includes this hierarchy does not display the posted node as shown in BW RSRT:

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

Environment

SAP Datasphere

Reproducing the Issue

  • In Datasphere:
    1. Navigate to the Analytic Model preview mode.
    2. Select a dimension that uses a hierarchy and select a measure.
    3. Apply the relevant hierarchy for the selected dimension.
    4. Expand a parent node that is also postable and observe that the node is not listed again as a separate child leaf.
  • In BW:
    • Execute the transaction RSRT.
    • Run the corresponding BW query and enable the setting "Display Posted Node":
    • Expand the same hierarchy node and observe that BW shows the node twice: once as the structural parent and once as a posted leaf.

Cause

This is by design.

Resolution

Currently, posted hierarchy nodes are not supported in Datasphere.
