CDS views in Analytics Cloud

kiransarma88 — Fri, 18 Dec 2020 14:10:15 GMT

Hi,

I have an import connection from an onpremise 1909 S/4 to Analytics Cloud. I can however see only few standard CDS views in SAC when I try to build a model. what's the reason for that? I also see, none of them have any odata publish annotation with them.

Second is, I see a failure to load CDS views in SAC that are parameterised.

Thanks for your help!

Regards.

Hi kiransarma,

SAP Analytics Cloud only consumes Core Data Services (CDS) Views from S/4HANA with certain attributes. We need to make sure CDS views have them set before planning to consuming them in SAC.

Contain the "@Analytics.query: true" Annotation. ABAP Development Tools for SAP NetWeaver to add the "@Analytics.query: true" Annotation to the required CDS Views

Good luck.

Hope this helps.
