Creating a OBIEE Analysis with Column property "save as system-wide" is not working as Expected.

Sample Sales Lite RPD is used to demonstrate the below case.

• Create a New Analysis with Sample Sales Subject Area and add the dimension Po.Product number.
• Click Settings icon next to the dimension and select 'Column Properties'
• Under Column Properties navigate to 'Data Format'
• Enable Override Default Data format and select Decimal places up to 9.
• Save it as 'save as system wide default for Po.Product number. '
• Go back to Same Analysis and again pull the same Dimension to your results
• System wide settings doesnt work and displays the default result.
