privileges without any instance filtering to the user and has the
following syntax "GRANT SELECT ON <entity>;"

entity. The result set of the CDS entity is not restricted by the
current Access Control document.

To get rid of the warning remove your Access Control document for this
entity. It still might make sense to create an Access Control document

for informational purposes of the Access Control developer. If you want
to get rid of this warning, contact the developer of the Access Control
document.
