vijay.simha how you were able to resolve this one. I am using oData V2. My custom pop up is coming but even after exposing the help in service definition help doesn't comes up.

koradaramjee789 any further directions on this one ?

Hello Vijay,

You can achieve this by defining the appropriate value help for the relevant elements of the CDS abstract entity using the CDS annotation @Consumption.valueHelpDefinition for the parameter. This can be done either directly in the CDS data definition of the abstract entity or separately using a CDS metadata extension.

Here is an example:

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Hi Carine,
This works only if you delete the line "sap-value-list": "none" from manifest.json as mentioned by jorgebastos.
One thing is still missing - the concatenation of key and name eg. 0001 (SAP AG) is still missing..
Kind regards,
