• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ISU_UMC_ODATA124 - You must specify Profile ID, Device ID or Contract ID for the selection ?

  The SAP error message ISU_UMC_ODATA124 indicates that a required parameter is missing in your OData service request. Specifically, it states that you must specify either a Profile ID, Device ID, or Contract ID for the selection. This error typically occurs when you are trying to retrieve data from the SAP IS-U (Utilities) module using OData services, but the request does not include the necessary identifiers to filter the data.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of one or more of the required identifiers in your OData query. The OData service expects at least one of the following parameters to be included in the request:
  
  Profile ID: Identifies the specific profile associated with the data you are trying to access.
  Device ID: Identifies the specific device (e.g., a meter) for which you want to retrieve data.
  Contract ID: Identifies the specific contract related to the customer or service.
  
  If none of these identifiers are provided, the OData service cannot determine which data to return, leading to the error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should ensure that your OData request includes at least one of the required parameters. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Check Your OData Request: Review the OData request you are making to ensure that it includes either a Profile ID, Device ID, or Contract ID. The request should look something like this:
  GET /sap/opu/odata/sap/YOUR_SERVICE_NAME/EntitySet?$filter=ProfileID eq 'your_profile_id'
  or
  GET /sap/opu/odata/sap/YOUR_SERVICE_NAME/EntitySet?$filter=DeviceID eq 'your_device_id'
  or
  GET /sap/opu/odata/sap/YOUR_SERVICE_NAME/EntitySet?$filter=ContractID eq 'your_contract_id'
  
  
  Validate Parameter Values: Ensure that the values you are using for the Profile ID, Device ID, or Contract ID are valid and exist in the system.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the OData service documentation for the specific service you are using to understand the required parameters and their formats.
  
  
  Test with Different Parameters: If you are unsure which parameter to use, try making requests with different combinations of Profile ID, Device ID, and Contract ID to see if any of them return the expected results.
  
  
  Check Authorization: Ensure that the user making the request has the necessary authorizations to access the data associated with the specified identifiers.
