I have activated attributs in my connector and tied them to columns. However, they do not appear in my stage and my vStageSourceAndTargetDataWithAttributes is empty. Is there any additional setting that should be activated in order to get the attributes active in stage?
I can see in your last screenshot you are at the "Load to Cube" screen. This screen will not show your attributes, you will need to go to the "Import" screen to see them.
Thanks, yes it is the correct WF profile, scenario type and cube.
In the TLP_ThingPlanningData Connector, here is how I have added/referred to the attributes (however, they seem to appear/reference correct in the Data Source Connector):

This is getting close to be better off as a support ticket/Remote consulting item, but one thing I would advice you to test, is to add a logging function just before the "return sql.ToString" that reads something like BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, sql.ToString) to capture the SQL query you are running, then copy/paste that into a Dashboard Data Adapter to make sure you are getting info into that WBS field.
But also, as I mentioned, when an attribute field is activated, you should see that field in the Import step of the Workflow even before attempting to put data into it, as an empty field, and you dont even have the column there so I am assuming something is not setup correctly.
I've reformatted your code for you - please use the procedure mentioned in this thread to post code next time. Well-formatted code is more likely to attract responses - I personally wouldn't review some 100 lines without it.
