  The SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_V4_MED362 typically occurs in the context of OData services when there is an issue with the metadata definition of an entity type (ET) in the service. This error indicates that an operation (like a function import or action) that is advertised for a specific property is not properly bound to that property in the entity type.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Metadata Definition: The operation is defined in the metadata but is not correctly bound to the property in the entity type.
  Missing Binding: The operation may be missing a binding to the entity type or property, which means that the OData service cannot find the necessary context to execute the operation.
  Service Implementation Issues: There may be issues in the implementation of the OData service, such as missing or incorrectly defined methods in the service class.
  Versioning Issues: If there are changes in the service or entity definitions that are not reflected in the metadata, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Metadata: Review the metadata of the OData service to ensure that the operation is correctly defined and bound to the appropriate property. You can access the metadata by appending $metadata to the service URL.
  Update Service Implementation: Ensure that the service implementation correctly handles the operation and that the method signatures match the expected parameters.
  Re-generate Service: If you have made changes to the entity types or operations, consider re-generating the OData service to ensure that the metadata is up to date.
  Check Annotations: If you are using annotations, ensure that they are correctly defined and that they match the expected structure.
  Debugging: Use debugging tools to trace the execution of the OData service and identify where the binding is failing.
