Sharing privilege have been added in the Roles page on public and private files. This change allows the system administrator to enable or disable a user’s ability to share content that is saved in private or public folders. The rule will apply to the owner of a file as well. (SAP Road Map Explorer)
Users can now add a forecast to time series or line charts in the optimized experience (view and design mode).
When designing advanced formulas, users can now include a data action parameter that has ANY type hierarchy, without the need to specify a hierarchy for the dimension the parameter is set on using CONFIG.HIERARCHY. This provides more flexibility by choosing the hierarchy to use when running the data action containing the advanced formulas. Note a parameter of date dimension with its hierarchy set to Any cannot be included. (SAP Road Map Explorer)
Legacy allocations are currently only available to view and execute. Existing legacy allocations have been automatically migrated to data actions in the folder “Structured Allocations” on system upgrade. The legacy allocation designer has been disabled. New allocations can be created in the data action designer.
In the optimized story experience, when creating calculations and calculation input controls in the calculation editor, user can now provide both a Name (ID) and Description. If a Description is not provided, the ID will be used instead. This enhancement allows for creating multiple calculations with the same description. (SAP Road Map Explorer)
In the optimized story experience, drilling up on a chart after drilling down on multiple members will now show the same results whether or not Linked Analysis is enabled.
