• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSODP_ABAP_CDS312 - Error while reading instance authorization filter ?

  The SAP error message RSODP_ABAP_CDS312 typically indicates an issue related to the authorization filter when trying to read data from a Core Data Services (CDS) view in ABAP. This error can occur due to various reasons, including missing authorizations, incorrect configuration, or issues with the underlying data model.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user executing the CDS view may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data or the specific fields defined in the authorization filter.
  Incorrect Configuration: The CDS view may be incorrectly configured, leading to issues when trying to apply the authorization filter.
  Data Model Issues: There may be inconsistencies or errors in the underlying data model that the CDS view is based on.
  Transport Issues: If the CDS view or its associated objects were transported from one system to another, there may be missing dependencies or inconsistencies.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the CDS view and the underlying data. You can use transaction SU53 to analyze authorization failures.
  Review the roles assigned to the user and ensure they include the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Review CDS View Configuration:
  
  Check the definition of the CDS view in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or transaction SE11. Ensure that the authorization filter is correctly defined and that all necessary fields are included.
  Validate the annotations related to authorization in the CDS view.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code where the CDS view is being called. This can help identify where the authorization check is failing.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Requests:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, verify that all dependent objects were included in the transport request and that they are correctly activated in the target system.
