Text IN on UD3 gives error

Question

Seems I have found a bug, not sure if this is the right place to get it solved.
We have a calculation where we use text3 on the customer, which is the country code to find the freight rate on the country customer with that name.
In the latest forecast the calculated numbers were lower than expected.
While checking there is no value calculated for customers with text IN, Indian customers.
The Cubeview I created now to check gives below message:

Text in the Cubeview is:
U3#39939, U3#30612, U3#Customer.base.Where(Text3 = 'IN'), I tried also Text3 startswith IN and Text3 = IN, all give the same message.
When I change to IT (for Italy), there is no error. Somehow IN is invalid for this purpose it seems.
Any idea how to solve, I can give it a different text, but would not be consistent.
 
Thanks in advance
Ben

The case will be closed by OneStream: See below the conclusions, it's not considered a bug:

i have taken your case to the wider team - the conclusion is :We always strongly recommend to always use brackets in any formulas .

As in the keywords , here are the keywords found in vb.net VB.Net - Basic Syntax (tutorialspoint.com)

The following table lists the VB.Net reserved keywords −

AddHandler	AddressOf	Alias	And	AndAlso	As	Boolean
ByRef	Byte	ByVal	Call	Case	Catch	CBool
CByte	CChar	CDate	CDec	CDbl	Char	CInt
Class	CLng	CObj	Const	Continue	CSByte	CShort
CSng	CStr	CType	CUInt	CULng	CUShort	Date
Decimal	Declare	Default	Delegate	Dim	DirectCast	Do
Double	Each	Else	ElseIf	End	End If	Enum
Erase	Error	Event	Exit	False	Finally	For
Friend	Function	Get	GetType	GetXML Namespace	Global	GoTo
Handles	If	Implements	Imports	In	Inherits	Integer
Interface	Is	IsNot	Let	Lib	Like	Long
Loop	Me	Mod	Module	MustInherit	MustOverride	MyBase
MyClass	Namespace	Narrowing	New	Next	Not	Nothing
Not Inheritable	Not Overridable	Object	Of	On	Operator	Option
Optional	Or	OrElse	Overloads	Overridable	Overrides	ParamArray
Partial	Private	Property	Protected	Public	RaiseEvent	ReadOnly
ReDim	REM	Remove Handler	Resume	Return	SByte	Select
Set	Shadows	Shared	Short	Single	Static	Step
Stop	String	Structure	Sub	SyncLock	Then	Throw
To	True	Try	TryCast	TypeOf	UInteger	While
Widening	With	WithEvents	WriteOnly	Xor

This would mean that we do not consider this as a BUG, as we would use TEXT in brackets just to make sure it doesn't result in an intersection of the vb.net keywords .

However if you feel that my answer is not meeting your expectations - please do raise an IdeaStream and our development team will then have a look at your request .I have attached a KB on how to do so .

Hi, I can confirm that I am able to replicate this on my instance of OS as well (8.1). Try adding square brackets around it, in my case this works:U3#Customer.base.Where(Text3 = '[IN]')
