BPC 10.1 unable to see Dimension Description in Member view

[Former Member]

We are using BPC 10.1..   We edited account dimension to add additional property.  After saving , when re-opened dimension to edit members, we can't see Description any more.   We can see Description(Infoobject text) available in underlying BW infoobject for same dimension.  We refreshed Dimension cache using UJA_REFRESH_DIM_CACHE, but no use.   We can't add new members, when we try to add new member enter ID value, try to save system displaying error Dimension ID mandatory, though we entering ID value.  Attched image of Dimension member view ,  we cant see Description

Hi Shekar,

The solution provided by the Note 2068917 can resolve the issue.

It worked for me. Just create an ABAP program with the following code and execute it.

Please provide the appropriate 'username' and '_AppsetName'  as per your requirement.

DELETE FROM RSBPC_WEB_UP　WHERE　user_id　=　'username'　AND　NAME　=　'colSeq'　AND　CATEGORY　=　'members_AppsetName'.

WRITE　SY-SUBRC　　.

Hi Shekar,

We are facing the same issue you reported.

Attached the print screen on our Account dimension. Is it possible that's related only on account dimensions type ?

We have 4 developing admin users and it seems the problem is related only to a specific user

who were working on the dimension admin interface.

Did you get any hint?

Regards

Francesco

Based on your described behaviours, and in particular Francesco's case which he confirms applies to only one user, the issue you are describing is a known bug in 10.1 that is slated for being fixed in SP04.

See Note 2058257 for information on this issue.

At present there is no Note correction to clean the corrupted user personalization settings. I have asked our development team to investigate if this can be resolved via a code note.

If you need this issue resolved urgently and do not have other user accounts you can use for your dimension editing please open a customer incident referencing the Note above and the specific user ID's that are affected and we will engage our development team to clean the corrupted data.

Quick update:

Note 2068917 now explains how to clean up the dirty data by creating a local program in the BW system. Note that this is a manual process, and while the program is quite simple it should be done by someone who is comfortable creating programs in your backend.

Hi Shekar,

Looks to me that the ID column consist of descriptions, you have spaces and - in the ID, which is not allowed.
