Unable to use wildcard "*" in "Message Number field" - Monitor Application Log

Hello,

Solution Manager 7.1 - SP12

While trying to create a new Application Log monitor by using "Application Log Content" key figure, the following occurs:

After completing all mandatory fields, the wildcard "*" is being removed from field "Message Number" after clicking on save button. The changes are not saved and like I said, the field is now "empty". No error message is displayed. Ofcourse, if we then try to generate the object without entering a new value in the above mentioned field, the following is obtained:

Enter Selection in Field "Message Number"

According to the help for the keyfigure, the "*" wildcard is accepted:

"The object must be fully-specified. For the other fields, except aggregation, you can use the wild card "*"."

Is this the expected behaviour for that field? Does this field really accept wildcards, or just numbers?

Thanks in advance
