• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_ST007 - Metadata outdated for Static Transformation; execute OData request again ?

  The SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_ST007 Metadata outdated for Static Transformation; execute OData request again typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway and OData services. This error indicates that the metadata for a static transformation has become outdated, which can happen for several reasons, such as changes in the underlying data model or updates to the OData service.
  Cause:
  
  Changes in Data Model: If there have been changes to the underlying data model (like changes in the database tables, structures, or fields) that the OData service relies on, the static transformation metadata may no longer be valid.
  Service Activation: If the OData service has been modified or reactivated, the metadata may need to be refreshed.
  Caching Issues: Sometimes, caching mechanisms can lead to outdated metadata being used, especially if the service was recently updated.
  
  Solution:
  
  Refresh Metadata: The first step is to refresh the metadata. You can do this by executing the OData request again, as suggested by the error message. This will force the system to fetch the latest metadata.
  Re-activate the OData Service: If refreshing the metadata does not resolve the issue, try reactivating the OData service in the SAP Gateway. You can do this through the transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE:
  
  Find your service and select it.
  Click on the "Activate" button to reactivate the service.
  
  
  Clear Cache: If the issue persists, consider clearing the cache. You can do this using the transaction code /IWFND/CACHE to clear the OData service cache.
  Check for Changes: Review any recent changes made to the data model or the OData service. Ensure that all necessary adjustments have been made to the static transformations.
  Check for Errors in Transformation: If you are using static transformations, ensure that there are no errors in the transformation logic itself.
