LOV selection shows Short Descriptions in WEBI

Hello,

We are on SAP BI 7.0 and BO XI 3.1.

The universe is based on a Bex query. The variable created in BW with characteristic Input shows Long description of the infoobject where as in BO, the LOV's shows up short descriptions.

However, when no short description available, Long description is shown. Is it possible to always show Long description.

Thanks for inputs.

Regards,

Srinivas
