KB414243: Consolidation element expressions do not display all browse forms of an attribute if the ID form is the browse form for an attribute in MicroStrategy


Community Admin

• Strategy


In MicroStrategy, when a consolidation is created and a consolidation element references an element of an attribute whose browse forms include the ID form, it replaces all other display forms with commas. Without the ID form, it appears to display correctly.

In Strategy 9.4.1, when a consolidation is created and a consolidation element references an element of an attribute whose browse forms include the ID form, it replaces all other display forms with commas. Without the ID form, it appears to display correctly.
 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Follow the steps below to reproduce this issue in Strategy Tutorial:

  • Create a consolidation and add the first element of the Customer attribute, Alen Aaby. The consolidation element expression should display as follows:

  • In the Customer attribute, add the ID form as a browse form.
  • Reopen the consolidation and it should modify the consolidation element expression to the following:
