Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSODP_ODATA036 - EntitySetName not supplied; server tried to set default ODP;ODP not found ?

  The SAP error message RSODP_ODATA036 indicates that there is an issue with the OData service configuration, specifically that the EntitySetName is not supplied, and the server attempted to set a default ODP (Operational Data Provisioning) but could not find it.
  Cause:
  
  Missing EntitySetName: The error typically occurs when an OData service is called without specifying the EntitySetName. This can happen if the request URL is incorrectly formed or if the client application does not provide the necessary parameters.
  Configuration Issues: The ODP might not be properly configured in the SAP system, or the ODP itself may not exist.
  Service Activation: The OData service might not be activated in the SAP Gateway or the backend system.
  Authorization Issues: The user might not have the necessary authorizations to access the ODP or the specific entity set.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Request URL: Ensure that the request URL for the OData service includes the correct EntitySetName. The URL should follow the format: http://<host>:<port>/sap/opu/odata/sap/<service_name>/<EntitySetName>.
  
  
  Verify ODP Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Gateway and check if the ODP is correctly configured.
  Use transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE to check if the OData service is active.
  If the service is not active, activate it.
  
  
  
  Check Entity Set Definition: Ensure that the entity set is defined in the OData service metadata. You can access the metadata by appending $metadata to the service URL (e.g., http://<host>:<port>/sap/opu/odata/sap/<service_name>/$metadata).
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the OData service and the specific entity set. You can check this in transaction SU53 after the error occurs.
  
  
  Review Backend Logic: If the OData service is dependent on backend logic (like ABAP code), ensure that the logic is correctly implemented and that it can handle the requests as expected.
  
  
  Check for Default ODP: If the system is trying to set a default ODP, ensure that the default ODP is correctly defined in the system. You may need to consult with your SAP Basis or technical team to verify this.
