Cant update object page header

[#1]

Hello All,

Object page header title "Unnamed Object" does not get overwritten with below annotation. I would like to assign the "up_product" value to it. Could you please share your comments why would that be?

schema.cds:

entity Product : managed 

{ key id            : UUID; 

key product       : String; 

productDetail : Composition of many 

{ key id               : UUID; 

plant            : String;  

planGroupKey     : String;  

planGroupCounter : String; } 

}

annotations.cds:

annotate service.Product.productDetail with @(UI.HeaderInfo:

{ TypeName : '{@i18n>productDetail}',

TypeNamePlural: '{@i18n>productDetails}',

Title : { $Type: 'UI.DataField', Value: up__product }

});

Best,

Merve

Hello Merve,

you can find a detailled explanation and annotation examples for correctly setting up the object page header here:

https://ui5.sap.com/#/topic/cce93e6f067a4133a8430c4f5d7b8fc7.html

Please make sure to provide a valid property path for setting header title and description. My assumption is that 'up__product 'can't be properly resolved, which usually results in having 'unnamed object' being displayed. Is 'up__product' a property of the annotated entity, or a navigation property path? In case it is a navigation property path, you have to add an a property of the associated entity to the path, e.g.

<navigation property path name>.<property name>
Please note that you can only use :1 associations for this purpose.

In order to avoid these kind of issues, I strongly recommend to use Fiori Tools Page Map to define title and description, as only valid paths are proposed for selection.

You should also install the VSCode plugin for CDS Language support which provides a syntax check and code completion in annotations.

Regards

Christian

Hi Christian,

Thanks a lot for all the info, I was able to solve the issue with your the points you've made.

Basically, the "Title" annotations should have been made at the "Product" entity rather than "productDetail". This information was clear to me when I used it with "Show Page Map".

Hi Ajit,

Thanks a lot for your reply. The "TypeNamePlural: '{i18n>productDetails}'" annotation effects the title of the table and not the header of the Object page. And if I delete the "@" sign, then it can't find the needed i18n property. So, I believe we need this "@" sign.

I dont think you need @

try to use: TypeNamePlural: '{i18n>productDetails}',
