Implement OSS note using CDS

[roland_spindler]

Hello,

We are trying to implement an OSS note. Part of this note are three standard database views that should be updated.

Since the S/4 views will only be generated from the HANA views, it is necessary to implement the OSS note on HANA, presumably. An SAP support employee advised us to "try to implement the note with CDS".

How do I do that? Is there a plug-in for HANA studio that lets me implement OSS notes?

kind regards

Hi Roland

Do you have more information for us besides the above? It's a bit hard to give a decent answer based on the information. Which SAP note does this concern?

A CDS view can be created through ABAP code so a SAP note implementation could be done on ABAP side which provides the code for the CDS view in the Netweaver (7.50) stack.

Best regards

Tom

Hello,

It is about note 2260903, which produces errors for us, since three standard views do not exist.

However, we are suspecting that our system has not been set up correctly, so the problem is probably not created to the note itself.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi Roland,

the note 2260903 does not contain CDS objects (DDL-Sources) There is one note 2250434 that is marked as prerequisite which contains DDL sources (ABAP CDS views). Nevertheless in a S/4 system the correction workbench is capable to implement these changes automatically so no manual tasks are required to implement these changes. So there is no need to do this as a manual task (there is also no description in the note that advises to do so)

So either as you state your system setup has some issues or some other notes are missing too. In any case I would not go for the approach to implement/fix that note issue manually.

What confuses me a bit is your statement that the HANA views create the CDS views. In S/4 the content is ABAP managed, so the CDS views are defined (and transported) via ABAP and the code is generated in HANA, not the other way round .

Imho you should send the OSS back and let the experts take a closer look at the issue
