PM35440: Search in select and search prompts, based on multilingual data,leads to error: QE-DEF-0260

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When creating a report, that includes a select and search
  prompt, with a German user and running the created report with
  an English user, the following error message appears after
  entering the search string %a%:  QE-DEF-0260 Parsing error
  before or near position: 35 of: "lower
  (RoleValue('_memberCaption',"
  

Local fix

• The described error message can not be reproduced when the repor
  t is created with an English user and run it with a German user.
    The behaviour appears only with a DMR or Cube Model, because t
  he caption does not exist in a Relational Model.  When using the
   member caption instead of the Level as value in the seach and s
  elect prompt, the error message does not appears.  e.g.: Please
  replace the following expresion '[Absatz (Analyse)].[Einzelh￤ndl
  er].[Einzelh￤ndler].[Region]' into 'roleValue('_memberCaption';[
  Absatz (Analyse)].[Einzelh￤ndler].[Einzelh￤ndler].[Region])'
