• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SADL_EXPOSURE062 - Private association &1 of &2 is not in the selection list ?

  The SAP error message SADL_EXPOSURE062 indicates that there is a problem with a private association in the context of the SAP Data Access Layer (SADL). Specifically, the error message states that a private association (denoted as &1) of an entity (denoted as &2) is not included in the selection list. This typically occurs when you are trying to access or expose data through a SADL query, but the association you are trying to use is not available in the selection context.
  Cause
  The primary causes of this error can include:
  
  Missing Association in Selection List: The private association you are trying to use is not part of the selection list defined for the query or data exposure.
  Incorrect Query Definition: The query may not be correctly defined to include the necessary associations.
  Model Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the underlying data model or the way associations are configured in the ABAP Dictionary or the Business Object Model.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Query Definition:
  
  Review the query definition in the SADL framework to ensure that the private association is included in the selection list.
  If the association is not included, you may need to modify the query to include it.
  
  
  
  Modify the Data Model:
  
  If the association is indeed required for your use case, consider modifying the data model to expose the association properly.
  Ensure that the association is defined correctly in the ABAP Dictionary and is marked as public if it needs to be accessed outside of its entity.
  
  
  
  Review the Business Object:
  
  Check the business object configuration to ensure that all necessary associations are correctly defined and accessible.
  If you are using a custom business object, ensure that the associations are properly implemented.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources related to SADL and data exposure to understand the requirements for associations and selection lists.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
