• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDC_SANITY_MODEL015 - Field &2 of table object &1 renders too long name for gateway access ?

  The SAP error message MDC_SANITY_MODEL015 indicates that a field in a table object has a name that is too long for the gateway access. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway services, where the naming conventions and length restrictions for fields are more stringent.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a field name in a data model that exceeds the maximum length allowed for the SAP Gateway. The maximum length for field names in the context of OData services is generally 40 characters. If a field name exceeds this limit, it can lead to issues when trying to access the data through the SAP Gateway.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Identify the Field: Determine which field is causing the issue. The error message will provide the table object name and the specific field name that is too long.
  
  
  Rename the Field: If possible, rename the field to a shorter name that complies with the naming conventions and length restrictions. This can be done in the Data Dictionary (SE11) or in the relevant data model.
  
  
  Adjust the Data Model: If the field is part of a data model (e.g., CDS view), you may need to adjust the data model to ensure that the field names are compliant with the gateway access requirements.
  
  
  Regenerate the Service: After making changes to the field names, regenerate the OData service in the SAP Gateway Service Builder (transaction code SEGW) to ensure that the changes are reflected in the service.
  
  
  Test the Service: Once the changes are made and the service is regenerated, test the OData service to ensure that the error is resolved and that the service functions as expected.
