• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GHO_HASH_URL_MSG005 - Semantic Object and Semantic Action are mandatory ?

  The SAP error message GHO_HASH_URL_MSG005 indicates that both the Semantic Object and Semantic Action parameters are mandatory when trying to execute a specific action in the SAP Fiori Launchpad or when using the SAP UI5 framework. This error typically arises when a URL is constructed for navigation without providing these required parameters.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Parameters: The error occurs when the application is trying to navigate to a specific semantic object or action, but either or both of the required parameters are not provided in the URL.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the Fiori app or the navigation target might be incorrect, leading to the absence of these parameters.
  Development Issues: If you are developing a custom Fiori application, there might be issues in the code where the semantic object and action are not being set correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check URL Parameters: Ensure that the URL you are using to navigate includes both the semanticObject and semanticAction parameters. The URL should look something like this:
  /sap/bc/ui5_ui5/sap/your_app_name?sap-semantic-object=YourSemanticObject&sap-semantic-action=YourSemanticAction
  
  
  Review Fiori Launchpad Configuration: If you are using the Fiori Launchpad, check the configuration of the tile or link that is supposed to navigate to the application. Ensure that the semantic object and action are correctly defined in the target mapping.
  
  
  Check Application Descriptor: If you are developing a custom application, review the manifest.json file of your SAP UI5 application. Ensure that the routing configuration includes the necessary semantic object and action.
  
  
  Debugging: If you have access to the development tools, use the browser's developer console to inspect the network requests and see if the parameters are being sent correctly. This can help identify where the issue lies.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for Fiori and UI5 applications to ensure that you are following the correct guidelines for defining semantic objects and actions.
  
  
  Related Information:
