Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_ENG_CDSVAL_ES062 - DDL w/o @EnterpriseSearch must not be succeeded by one with this anno ?

  The SAP error message ESH_ENG_CDSVAL_ES062 indicates that there is an issue with the definition of a Core Data Services (CDS) view in the context of Enterprise Search. Specifically, the error states that a Data Definition Language (DDL) operation without the @EnterpriseSearch annotation must not be followed by one that includes this annotation.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when:
  
  A CDS view is defined without the @EnterpriseSearch annotation, which is required for views that are intended to be used in the context of Enterprise Search.
  There is an inconsistency in the annotations of the CDS views, where one part of the definition does not align with the requirements for Enterprise Search.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Annotations: Review the CDS view definition to ensure that the annotations are correctly applied. If the view is intended to be used for Enterprise Search, it should include the @EnterpriseSearch annotation.
  
  
  Modify the CDS View:
  
  If the view is not meant for Enterprise Search, ensure that no subsequent DDL operations are trying to apply the @EnterpriseSearch annotation.
  If the view is meant for Enterprise Search, add the @EnterpriseSearch annotation to the view definition.
  
  Example of adding the annotation:
  @AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: 'Z_MY_CDS_VIEW'
  @AbapCatalog.compiler.compareFilter: true
  @EnterpriseSearch: true
  define view Z_My_CDS_View as select from my_table {
      key field1,
      field2
  }
  
  
  Re-activate the CDS View: After making the necessary changes, re-activate the CDS view to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  Check Dependencies: If the CDS view is dependent on other views or tables, ensure that those dependencies are also correctly defined and do not conflict with the Enterprise Search requirements.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for Core Data Services and Enterprise Search for more detailed information on the correct usage of annotations.
