• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_V4S_RUN058 - Skip-token and delta-token are not allowed together ?

  The SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_V4S_RUN058 indicates that there is a conflict in the use of skip tokens and delta tokens in an OData service request. This error typically arises when a client attempts to use both a skip token and a delta token in the same request, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  
  Skip Token: This is used for pagination in OData services. It allows clients to retrieve a specific subset of data by skipping a certain number of records.
  Delta Token: This is used to retrieve changes (new, updated, or deleted records) since the last request. It is part of the OData Delta Query feature, which is designed to optimize data retrieval by only fetching changes.
  
  The error occurs because the OData protocol does not permit the use of both tokens in a single request. When a client sends a request with both tokens, the service cannot determine which method of data retrieval to use, leading to this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that your OData requests do not include both a skip token and a delta token at the same time. Here are the steps to fix the issue:
  
  
  Review the Request: Check the OData request being sent to the service. Look for the presence of both $skiptoken and $deltatoken parameters in the query string.
  
  
  Choose One Method:
  
  If you need to paginate through a large dataset, use the skip token and remove any delta token from the request.
  If you are interested in retrieving only the changes since the last request, use the delta token and remove any skip token from the request.
  
  
  
  Modify Client Logic: If your application logic is generating these requests, ensure that it correctly handles the conditions under which each token is used. For example, if you are implementing a paging mechanism, ensure that it does not attempt to use delta queries simultaneously.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the OData requests to confirm that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  OData Protocol: Understanding the OData protocol and its query options can help in effectively using skip and delta tokens.
  SAP Gateway: If you are working with SAP Gateway services, refer to the documentation for best practices on implementing OData services and handling pagination and change tracking.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in your application to gracefully manage such errors and provide meaningful feedback to users.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that your OData requests are correctly formatted.
