OData Model
Due to the inherent differences between MBOs and the OData standard, a direct mapping between respective features cannot be achieved and limitations from either perspective are to be expected. In this section we'll provide the How To... guides that explain how to create OData model in SAP Gateway to expose the same SAP backend (used in the MBO model) as OData services:
- How To… Build OData Services Using SAP Gateway : explains step-by-step procedure for designing and developing an end-to-end OData service focusing on the tasks that are most relevant in meeting the requirements of an MBO based application
- How To… Implement Delta Query Support in SAP Gateway OData Service : describes step-by-step procedure for designing and implementing an OData service with delta querying capabilities using an ABAP based delta request log and xChange Framework
