Please note that while we are publishing contest activities on Friday, September 27th; many badge assignments won't be active in the system until Monday, September 30th.  If you happen to complete a contest activity before the badge is active, that's OK. You'll still get credit for it. It just won't show up in your gameboard totals until the new badges are activated and assigned.

If you are looking for Week 1 activities, they can be found here: Devtoberfest 2024 Week 1 Contest Activities - SAP Community

Feedback on "Create an ABAP Core Data Services (CDS) View in SAP BTP, ABAP Environment" Tutorial

Hello everyone,

I wanted to give a quick heads up to those working on the tutorial “Create an ABAP Core Data Services (CDS) View in SAP BTP, ABAP Environment”. I encountered a small issue with the code in STEP 9 and made some adjustments to resolve it.

I've provided my feedback and proposed changes in this GitHub issue: Feedback on Step 9.

Feel free to check it out, and I hope it helps improve the tutorial for everyone!

Best regards,

Francisco Milan.

PS. I wrote some additional feedback about this tutorial here: https://github.com/sap-tutorials/abap-core-development/issues/2538.

@Priya_2811 - what do you mean points are not getting updated?  Points are based upon the badges so of course if the badge isn't assigned you don't have points for those missing badges yet.  But are you saying there's something beyond the missing badges?

@thomas_jung , no there is nothing beyond the missing badges.

Thank you Thomas Jung,

My score has been updated, but it appears that the 1000 points from Technoberfest haven’t been added yet. Currently, my total for Week 1 and Week 2 is (29620/30620). I’ve already shared a photo of my workstation in the Technoberfest forum, so I would appreciate it if you could add those points.

@vishalakshmi The Techtoberfest points/badge, like Petoberfest before it, has to be assigned manually.  All the fun friday activities are that way.  So it will be early next week before those are assigned.

What are the activities for week 3? Will there be any?

Edit: I just discovered that the following activities will be posted on Friday, October 11th.

vishalakshmi

I’m excited to share that after completing the activities for Week 1(14650) and Week 2 (15970), I achieved a 100% score (30620/30620) on the scoreboard and reached Level 4!

I’m thrilled about this accomplishment. I dedicated extra time beyond my office hours and learned so much from each tutorial, which will greatly enhance my ability to support my clients and advance my career.

I’m eagerly looking forward to the next contest (Week 3) to continue learning.

A special thank you to the SAP global team, and a heartfelt thanks to Thomas Jung for patiently addressing all my questions during the contests.
