• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_V4S_RUN067 - DEEP CREATE not supported for navigation properties in complex types ?

  The SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_V4S_RUN067 DEEP CREATE not supported for navigation properties in complex types typically occurs in the context of OData services when trying to perform a deep create operation that involves navigation properties within complex types. This error indicates that the OData service does not support creating entities that have navigation properties defined as complex types.
  Cause:
  
  Deep Create Operation: The error arises when you attempt to create an entity and include related entities (navigation properties) in a single request. This is known as a deep create operation.
  Complex Types: The navigation properties involved are defined as complex types in the OData model. Complex types cannot be directly created or modified in the same way as entity types.
  Service Limitations: The OData service implementation may not support deep create operations for complex types, as they are typically designed to handle entity types.
  
  Solution:
  
  Separate Requests: Instead of trying to create the main entity and its related entities in a single request, you can perform separate requests:
  
  First, create the main entity.
  Then, create the related entities using their respective endpoints.
  
  
  Check OData Model: Review the OData service metadata to understand the structure of the entities and complex types. Ensure that you are not trying to create complex types directly.
  Modify the Request: If you are using a client application to send the request, modify the payload to exclude the complex type navigation properties or handle them separately.
  Service Implementation: If you have control over the OData service implementation, consider modifying it to support deep create operations for complex types if that aligns with your business requirements.
  
  Related Information:
  
  OData Version: Ensure you are aware of the OData version being used, as different versions may have different capabilities and limitations regarding complex types and navigation properties.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may provide additional insights or updates regarding this error.
  Debugging: Use tools like SAP Gateway Client or Postman to test your OData service and analyze the requests and responses to better understand where the issue lies.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully create the entities as needed.
