• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SADL_GW_DT_CDS004 - Data source &1 is not a transactional CDS view. ?

  The SAP error message SADL_GW_DT_CDS004 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 use a CDS view that is not designed for transactional operations in a context that requires a transactional data source.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Transactional CDS View: The CDS view you are trying to access is not defined as a transactional view. Transactional views are designed to support operations like Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD).
  Incorrect Data Source: You may be using a data source that is intended for analytical purposes or reporting, rather than for transactional processing.
  Misconfiguration: There might be a misconfiguration in the way the CDS view is set up or how it is being called in your application.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the CDS View Definition: Verify the definition of the CDS view in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or in the SAP GUI. Ensure that it is defined as a transactional view. You can do this by checking the annotations in the CDS view. Look for the @OData.publish: true annotation and ensure that it is set up correctly for transactional operations.
  
  
  Use a Transactional CDS View: If the current CDS view is not transactional, you will need to either:
  
  Use a different CDS view that is designed for transactional operations.
  Create a new CDS view that meets the requirements for transactional processing.
  
  
  
  Review the OData Service: If you are using an OData service, ensure that the service is correctly configured to expose the transactional capabilities of the CDS view.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or the SAP Community for guidance on creating and using transactional CDS views.
  
  
  Debugging: If you have access to the development environment, you can debug the application to see how the CDS view is being called and identify any issues in the data flow.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  CDS Views: Core Data Services (CDS) are a way to define semantically rich data models in SAP. They can be used for both analytical and transactional purposes, but they need to be defined appropriately.
  Transactional vs. Analytical Views: Understand the difference between transactional and analytical views. Transactional views are used for operations that modify data, while analytical views are used for reporting and data analysis.
  SAP Notes and Community: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to the error message and search the SAP Community for similar issues and solutions shared by other users.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that you are using the correct data source for your transactional operations.
