Foundation Object behavior in Story Report after 1H_2025 release

[lisaatkins]

We are noticing some significant changes to the delivered Story Reports following the 1H_2025 release into our Preview instance. Any fields coming from the older Foundation Objects, such as Location or Frequency, are not displaying correctly. We've been able to correct some of the queries, but it has been an extremely time-consuming process. We are close to Go Live for the client and this is causing some issues due to the timing. I'm not able to find anything in the Release documentation regarding a change, but it didn't start happening until after the release went into the system.

Hi @lisaatkins ,

In preview release 1H 2505, some changes (FO Translation support in EC SAC Reports) are made to FO objects (defined under Manage Organisation, Pay and Job Structures) resulting in issues with Story report

We reported this to Engineering team and they are working on permanent fix, further updates will be provided in KBA

Subbu - Thank you for the response. I am the implementation partner, so I followed the steps that you provided. Unfortunately, this caused the installed standard reports to stop working completely. I decided to reenable the FO Translation feature and run the job again. This restored the reports, and it seems to have also fixed the initial issues that we were experiencing with the older FO objects. It would be great if this item was logged under the KBA for 1H_2025 Issues (https://me.sap.com/notes/2692971/E). As of today, there is nothing showing up for Analytics in this KBA at all.
