LEFT & SUBSTRING functions not working in RPD

skullOct 2 2019 — edited Oct 8 2019

Hi,

OBI 11.1.1.9.0

Using OBI Admin Tool, I created 2 Logical Columns in BMM which is derived from an existing column using the below formula.  However OBI is still displaying the data from the source column (NOE_FAMILY_1 column) in both the logical columns.  The data from NOE_FAMILY_1 column is displayed as it is; as if the LEFT and SUBSTRING functions are not applied.

NOE_FAMILY_1 column contains strings (VARCHAR2).

Left("FIN"."D4 NOE"."NOE_FAMILY_1", 3)

Substring("FIN"."D4 NOE"."NOE_FAMILY_1"  FROM 6)

However if I use the same functions in OBI, it works as expected.

I am not sure what am I missing in the repository.

Thanks.
