Hi Rodrigo,
 
Thank you for posting your question.
 
The measure tooltips in the Field List repeat the labels of the fields. For MS Analysis Services, the tooltip also displays the field's description, if any is provided.
 
For both label and description, the values are retrieved when initially connecting to the Analysis Services instance.  
 
Please let us know if this helps.
 
Best regards,
Mykhailo

Thanks for your promptly response and my apologies for the delayed follow up.
 
Based on your response, it does not seem to be working for us (See image attached), it is always returning the Label name and not the description.  Is there something I need to change on the set up to have this working?
 
Thanks in advance

Hi Rodrigo,
 
The feature of displaying the hierarchy description in the tooltip was introduced in version 2.8.19 – please ensure you're using at least this version in order for this to work.
 
Do not forget to update your Accelerator instance as well.
 
Hope you find this helpful!
 
Best regards,
Mykhailo

Rodrigo,
 
Is your Accelerator instance of the necessary version (2.8.19) as well?
 
Looking forward to your response.
 
Kind regards,
Mykhailo

Hi Rodrigo,
 
How are you?
 
I was wondering if you've received my previous response. Did you have a chance to check the version of your Accelerator instance?
 
We would be happy to hear your feedback.
 
Best regards,
