Problem Note 42827: Drill-through to detail data for an OLAP cube might fail if UTF-8 encoding is used and member values contain non-English characters
When performing a drill-through to detail data on an OLAP cube where UTF-8 encoding is used, you might receive errors on the drill-through that are similar to the following:
The immediate MDX execution failed.
The server encountered an error accessing a source data table.
Here is another possible error:
For example, this error was reported when member values contained Mandarin Chinese characters. The apparent cause is a transcoding problem occurring in the SQL generation for the drill-through.
In some cases, you can circumvent this issue by shortening the column width in the input table to the length of the longest value for that column.
For additional information regarding how language encoding can affect the length of member captions for your SAS OLAP cube, refer to SAS Note 43113.
