• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SADL_CONSUMP_SERVICE103 - Data source &1 is not a transactional CDS view ?

  The SAP error message SADL_CONSUMP_SERVICE103 indicates that the data source you are trying to use is not a transactional Core Data Services (CDS) view. This error typically arises when you attempt to consume a CDS view that is not designed for transactional operations, such as creating, updating, or deleting data.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Transactional CDS View: The CDS view you are trying to use is defined as a read-only view and does not support transactional operations.
  Incorrect Data Source: You may have selected a data source that is not intended for the operation you are trying to perform.
  View Definition: The CDS view may not have the necessary annotations or definitions that qualify it as a transactional view.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the CDS View Definition: Review the definition of the CDS view in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or the SAP GUI. Ensure that it is defined as a transactional view. Look for annotations like @ObjectModel.transactional or @ObjectModel.writeActive which indicate that the view supports transactional operations.
  
  
  Use a Transactional CDS View: If the current view is not transactional, you will need to find or create a transactional CDS view that meets your requirements. You can create a new CDS view that combines the necessary data and includes the appropriate annotations for transactional operations.
  
  
  Review the Service Implementation: If you are using a service (like OData) to consume the CDS view, ensure that the service is correctly implemented to handle transactional operations. This may involve creating or modifying the service definition to point to a transactional CDS view.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on creating and using transactional CDS views. This can provide insights into best practices and common pitfalls.
  
  
  Related Information:

  Annotations: Annotations in CDS views provide metadata that can influence how the view behaves in different contexts, such as whether it can be used for transactional operations.
  SAP Notes and Community: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to the error message. The SAP Community can also be a valuable resource for troubleshooting and finding solutions shared by other users.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully work with the appropriate CDS views for your transactional needs.
