How To Fix ESH_ENG_CDSVAL_ES055 - @EnterpriseSearch.enabled missing - no ES-Connector!

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: ESH_ENG_CDSVAL_ES - ES-CDS/ABAP: Validation of domain @EnterpriseSearch

• Message number: 055

• Message text: @EnterpriseSearch.enabled missing - no ES-Connector!

What causes this issue?

This CDS-entity carries annotations of @EnterpriseSearch, but the
annotation @EnterpriseSearch.enabled is missing.
Such a constellation makes sense only for reuse views - the
@EnterpriseSearch-annotations are done in advance, to be inherited by
other views, which then build connectors. @EnterpriseSearch-annotations
that do not define an ES-Connector at some point are redundant and
wrong.

System Response

Without this annotation, no Enterprise Search Connector will be derived.
The Enterprise Search-related validations of the CDS-entity will yield
warnings instead of errors.

How to fix this error?

If the CDS-entity does not act as a reuse view, remove all the
@EnterpriseSearch-annotations. They are redundant and pointless.

Procedure for System Administrators
