• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ATM_ATTRIBUTE035 - The &1 CDS view has a DCL, cannot be used ?

  The SAP error message ATM_ATTRIBUTE035 indicates that the Core Data Services (CDS) view you are trying to use has a Data Control Language (DCL) associated with it, which restricts its usage in certain contexts. DCLs are used to define access control for CDS views, and when a DCL is applied, it can limit the visibility of the data based on user roles and permissions.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because:
  
  The CDS view has a DCL defined that restricts access to the data.
  The context in which you are trying to use the CDS view does not have the necessary authorizations to access the data defined by the DCL.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check DCL Definition: Review the DCL associated with the CDS view to understand the access restrictions it imposes. You can do this by checking the DCL definition in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or in the SAP GUI.
  
  
  Review User Authorizations: Ensure that the user or role trying to access the CDS view has the necessary authorizations. You may need to adjust the roles or permissions assigned to the user to allow access to the data.
  
  
  Modify DCL (if necessary): If the DCL is too restrictive and does not meet your business requirements, consider modifying it to allow broader access. However, be cautious with this approach, as it may expose sensitive data.
  
  
  Use Alternative Views: If modifying the DCL is not an option, consider using an alternative CDS view that does not have a DCL associated with it, if available.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on DCLs and CDS views, as well as best practices for managing access control.
