Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SADL_GW_DT_CDS071 - Association &1 is not draft-enabled in transactional view &2. ?

  The SAP error message SADL_GW_DT_CDS071 indicates that there is an issue with the association in a Core Data Services (CDS) view that is not draft-enabled. This typically occurs when you are trying to use a transactional view that requires draft handling, but the associated entity is not configured to support draft operations.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Draft-Enabled Association: The association specified in the error message is not marked as draft-enabled. In SAP, draft handling is essential for transactional applications that require the ability to save data temporarily before finalizing it.
  CDS View Configuration: The CDS view that you are trying to use may not have been properly configured to support draft operations, or the associated entities do not have the necessary annotations for draft handling.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check CDS View Annotations: Ensure that the CDS view and its associated entities are annotated correctly for draft handling. You need to add the @ObjectModel.draftEnabled: true annotation to the relevant CDS view.
  Example:
  @AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: 'Z_MY_CDS_VIEW'
  @ObjectModel.draftEnabled: true
  define view Z_MY_CDS_VIEW as select from my_table
  {
      key field1,
      field2,
      ...
  }
  
  
  Enable Draft Handling for Associations: If the association is part of a draft-enabled view, ensure that the associated entity is also draft-enabled. You can do this by adding the same annotation to the associated CDS view.
  
  
  Check for Consistency: Make sure that all entities involved in the draft-enabled view are consistent in terms of their draft handling capabilities. If one entity is not draft-enabled, it can lead to this error.
  
  
  Rebuild the CDS View: After making changes to the annotations, you may need to activate and rebuild the CDS view to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the transactional application again to see if the error persists.
