  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWBEP/SBOD118 - Property ABAP type mapping of complex type '&1' is not complete ?

    The SAP error message /IWBEP/SBOD118 Property ABAP type mapping of complex type '&1' is not complete typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway and OData services when there is an issue with the mapping of ABAP types to the corresponding OData types. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a complete mapping for a complex type defined in your OData service.

    Cause:

    1. Incomplete Type Definition: The complex type defined in the ABAP backend does not have a complete mapping to the OData service. This could be due to missing properties or incorrect data types.
    2. Missing Annotations: The required annotations for the complex type may not be defined, leading to incomplete type mapping.
    3. Changes in Data Model: If there have been recent changes to the underlying data model (e.g., adding or removing fields), the OData service may not have been updated accordingly.
    4. Inconsistent Metadata: The metadata of the OData service may not be in sync with the ABAP data model.

    Solution:

    1. Check Complex Type Definition: Review the definition of the complex type in the ABAP backend. Ensure that all properties are correctly defined and mapped to the corresponding OData types.
    2. Update OData Service: If there have been changes to the underlying data model, regenerate the OData service to ensure that the metadata is up to date. You can do this using transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE to maintain the service and regenerate the metadata.
    3. Add Missing Annotations: If there are missing annotations, add them to the complex type definition in the ABAP backend.
    4. Check Data Types: Ensure that the data types used in the ABAP backend are compatible with the OData types. For example, ensure that numeric types, strings, and dates are correctly defined.
    5. Activate the Service: After making changes, ensure that the OData service is activated. You can do this in the same transaction mentioned above.
    6. Test the Service: After making the necessary changes, test the OData service to ensure that the error is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE for service maintenance and /IWBEP/REG_SERVICE for registering services.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address known issues related to this error.
    • Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the OData service to trace where the mapping is failing.
    • Documentation: Refer to the SAP Gateway documentation for detailed information on OData service development and type mapping.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that your OData service is functioning correctly.
