• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SADL_ENTITY_RUNTIME019 - Mandatory filter condition was returned initial by the exit class &1 ?

  The SAP error message SADL_ENTITY_RUNTIME019 indicates that a mandatory filter condition was returned as initial by the exit class specified in the error message. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP ABAP programming environment, particularly when using the SAP Data Access Layer (SADL) for data retrieval.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Mandatory Filter: The error usually arises when a mandatory filter condition that is expected by the system is not provided or is returned as initial (empty) by the exit class.
  Exit Class Logic: The exit class may have logic that is not correctly implemented, leading to the return of initial values for mandatory filters.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the SADL entity or the associated data model that prevent the correct filter conditions from being applied.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Exit Class Implementation: Review the implementation of the exit class specified in the error message. Ensure that it correctly provides the necessary filter conditions and does not return initial values for mandatory filters.
  Review SADL Entity Configuration: Check the configuration of the SADL entity to ensure that all mandatory filters are correctly defined and that the data model is set up properly.
  Debugging: Use debugging tools to trace the execution of the code and identify where the mandatory filter is being set or returned as initial. This can help pinpoint the exact location of the issue.
  Test with Different Data: Sometimes, the issue may be data-specific. Test the functionality with different sets of data to see if the error persists.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to SADL and the specific exit class for any known issues or additional configuration steps that may be required.
