Concept of VDM and CDS views

"The VDM (virtual data model) forms the basis for data access in SAP S/4HANA in, for example, analytical applications and APIs. The VDM of SAP S/4HANA Cloud and SAP S/4HANA is represented by CDS views. The CDS views that make up the VDM follow consistent modeling and naming rules." (help.sap.com)

CDS views in FS-CD

FS-CD is an industry solution based on contract accounting. FS-CD also uses generic services/objects such as the central business partner or SEPA mandate management. CDS views of these components can also be used in FS-CD. The existing views can be classified as follows:

In the following I present some CDS views:

I_ContractAccountPartner

This view represents the contract account business partner relationship and provides the information about the data of the relationship.

This view represents the business partner line item with the business partner, contract reference, main and sub transatiob and amount.

I_CAOverdueItem

This view provides information about overdue items.
