KB289619: When 'Re-run against the warehouse' is selected in the Web Preferences, refreshing a document in Presentation mode will hit cache, in MicroStrategy Web 10.1

SYMPTOM:
In Strategy Web 10.1, an administrator has the ability to change how reports or documents refresh, between the following two options:

1. Retrieve data from the recent valid Intelligence Server cache
2. Re-run against the warehouse in the Web preferences.

See the image below:

 
With the introduction of Presentation mode in Strategy 10.1, when a user has the setting "Re-run against the warehouse" selected and refreshes a document, the document will hit cache as opposed to re-run against the warehouse.
 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

• In the Strategy Web Preferences, navigate to Project Defaults > General > Refresh Report > Select 'Re-run against the warehouse'.
• Open the document cache monitor in Strategy Developer 10.1.
• In Strategy Web 10.1, run a document in Presentation mode.
• A cache is created in the cache monitor, as shown below:
  

• In Strategy Web 10.1, use the Refresh option from the document menu, as shown below:
  

• Refresh the cache monitor and notice that the hit count increased, as shown below:
