• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSRTS_CDS246 - Parameter &1 of type node has to be hidden if view supports OData.publish ?

  The SAP error message RSRTS_CDS246 indicates that there is an issue with a parameter in a Core Data Services (CDS) view that is being published as an OData service. Specifically, the error states that a parameter of type "node" must be hidden if the view supports OData publishing.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when you have a CDS view that is intended to be exposed as an OData service, but one of the parameters (specifically of type "node") is not set to be hidden. In OData services, certain parameters or fields may need to be hidden to ensure that the service behaves correctly and does not expose unnecessary details.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to modify the CDS view definition to hide the parameter that is causing the issue. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Open the CDS View: Access the CDS view in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or the relevant transaction in the SAP GUI.
  
  
  Identify the Parameter: Look for the parameter of type "node" that is mentioned in the error message (denoted as &1).
  
  
  Modify the Parameter: You need to add the annotation to hide the parameter. You can do this by adding the following annotation to the parameter definition in your CDS view:
  @OData.publish: true
  @UI.hidden: true
  This will ensure that the parameter is hidden when the view is published as an OData service.
  
  
  Activate the CDS View: After making the changes, activate the CDS view to apply the modifications.
  
  
  Test the OData Service: Once the CDS view is activated, test the OData service to ensure that the error is resolved and that the service behaves as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  CDS Views: Core Data Services (CDS) are a way to define semantic data models in SAP. They allow for the creation of complex data models that can be consumed by various applications, including OData services.
  OData Services: OData (Open Data Protocol) is a standard protocol for building and consuming RESTful APIs. In SAP, OData services are often used to expose data from CDS views to front-end applications.
  Annotations: Annotations in CDS views are metadata that provide additional information about the data model, such as UI behavior, OData exposure, and more.
  
  By following these steps and understanding the context of the error, you should be able to resolve the RSRTS_CDS246 error effectively.
