nested eval with stats count not working while using Data Model

Below is my query:

|datamodel testing search
|search wells.API="enroll"
|stats count(eval(wells.resp_code="S" OR (wells.resp_code="F" AND wells.error_code="NGENR000"))) AS Success

wells is the nodename and resp_code and API are extracted fields in Data Model.
When I run this query with index as a normal search query it is working, but with Data model it is not.

look in the job inspector to see how the search is expanded
try to disable search optimization
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Search/Aboutoptimization
also make sure all the fields you use are defined in the datamodel or they would be filtered out
+ try renaming your fields without nodename that is easier to work with with eval
