SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SDDL_PARSER_MSG - Message Class for DDL Parser

• Message number: 153

• Message text: Optimization of Case expression and Join used is not possible.

What causes this issue?

The planned optimization for dependent joins using the annotation
@ABAPCATALOG.COMPILER.CASEJOIN is not possible in this case.
Due to the restrictions listed below, the optimization action is not
possible:
Client-independent data sources within the CASE expression
Outdated annotation for client handling The annotations to be used are
@ClientHandling.type or @ClientHandling.algorithm
Complex condition after WHEN
The restriction for individual case-when clauses is in the form <(>
<<)>Element> = literal values
Complex expression after THEN; only path expressions of length 2 are
allowed here.
Path expressions with different outbound data sources
Combination of path expressions with local defined associations and
non-local defined associations
Solely searched-case expressions are supported.
An association is used multiple times within a SELECT command;
optimization of the conditional join operations is not advantageous.
In this case, the optimization cannot be applied due to restriction
number &V1&.
