Invalid Selection for Characteristics

Hi Experts,

Just would like if any of you would know a fix for this issue.  One of our clients informed us that they were

getting this issue when running their workbook.

A warning message: Invalid selection for characteristics XXXXX

Details: Characteristics XXXXX has no master data for YYYYY or you do not have authorization

(com.sap.ip.bi.bics.dataaccess.consumer.impl.selector.selection.SingleMemberNoMasterdata)

However, the issue is not seen when we run the query in BEx Analyzer

The error in AO comes up when we apply a Filter Member to a certain dimension.

If we take out the Filter Member, issue is not present.

We are using version AO 1.4.12.3394

I saw a similar post but seems like I need to open a new discussion for it:

Thank you!

Kind Regards,

Mark

Hi Mark -

Two questions - does the dimension have master data and can your BW admin do a trace on the backend to see if there is an authorization issue?  I recommend an ST01 trace - steps are described here: Authorization Trace in transaction ST01 - Product Lifecycle Management - SCN Wiki
