  The SAP error message /IWFND/COS_SUTIL205 Executing typically relates to issues encountered in the SAP Gateway framework, particularly when executing OData services. This error can arise due to various reasons, including configuration issues, problems with the OData service itself, or issues with the underlying data model.
  Possible Causes:

  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the SAP Gateway or the OData service can lead to execution failures.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Activate the OData Service:
  
  Go to the SAP Gateway Service Builder (transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE).
  Check if the service is listed and activated. If not, activate it.
