Apply/Revert/Done buttons are not visible - Write Back OBIEE 12c

Question

Hi All,

I am implementing Write Back Feature in OBI 12c.

In Analysis, Table properties, when I check "Enable Write Back" Apply/Revert/Done buttons are not visible.

Able to enter/edit text but not able to apply changes as buttons are unavailable.

Various attempts have been made, but no luck.

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

I face the same problem - and it's an error by Oracle BI. I think it comes with the new Alta UI. 
If you run this Answer in a Dashboard or if you use "Show as it looks in a Dashboard", then you will see the Buttons.

I've opened a SR and the guy from the support says he cannot replicate even if I have exactly the same behavior in 5 different customer environments - I don't put any effort in this Oracle Support thing ...

Thanks a ton for the reply. I believe there was a issue with reflection of RPD changes to Analytics. I have created a new table with same settings(Writeback), it worked for both new and existing. Meanwhile there was a server restart, so not sure what was the issue. Now the actual problem is, I am getting below error: "An error occurred while writing to the server. Please check to make sure you have entered appropriate values. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator" System: MS SQL server database Oracle Business Intelligence 12.2.1.0.0 XML File: UPDATE WB SET COMMENTS='@{ce374fe936da06edc}' WHERE id=@{cf11242553a7dfdf3} COMMIT Currently, I have Admin rights and I strongly believe I have configured properly. I have tried various changes to XML file, but the problem still exists. It would be great if anyone could assist with the above issue. Thanks in advance.
