  Cause
  
  Incorrect Property Name: The property name (&1) you are trying to access does not exist in the entity type (&2) you are working with.
  Entity Type Mismatch: The entity type you are referencing may not be the correct one for the operation you are trying to perform.
  Model Definition Issues: There may be issues in the OData model definition where the property is not correctly defined or mapped to the entity type.
  Service Metadata: The metadata of the OData service may not be updated or may not reflect the current state of the underlying data model.
  
  Solutions
  
  
  Check Property Name: Verify that the property name you are using in your request matches exactly with the property names defined in the entity type. Pay attention to case sensitivity and spelling.
  
  
  Review Entity Type: Ensure that you are referencing the correct entity type in your OData service. You can check the service metadata (usually accessible via the service URL with $metadata appended) to confirm the structure.
  
  
  Update OData Model: If you have recently made changes to the underlying data model (like adding or removing properties), ensure that the OData model is updated accordingly. You may need to regenerate the service or refresh the model.
  
  
  Check Service Implementation: If you are implementing custom logic in the OData service, ensure that the logic correctly handles the properties of the entity type.
  
  
  Test with Tools: Use tools like Postman or SAP Gateway Client (transaction /IWFND/GW_CLIENT) to test your OData service and see the response. This can help you identify if the issue is with the request or the service itself.
  
  
  Debugging: If you have access to the backend, consider debugging the OData service implementation to see where the error is being triggered.
  
  
  Related Information
