SAP Fiori Elements – Analytical List Page Part 3(Development of OData Service)

Hi All,

Now we are going to expose our CDS view as an OData service.

Pre-requisite- Please visit my previous blog post for the development of CDS view-

https://blogs.sap.com/2019/11/11/sap-fiori-elements-analytical-list-page-part-2development-of-cds-view/

Expose CDS view as OData service:

• Add the following annotation to the ZXC_SO_84 CDS view just before the view definition- @OData.publish : true

• Press “CTRL + S” to save the changes and “CTRL + F3” to activate the CDS view.

• Now register our OData service in the SAP system. Open SAP system -> Go to t-code “/N/IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE” -> Click on “Add service” -> Search services.

• Enter “System Alias” – “Local” -> Press “Add Selected Service” -> Specify Package name (Here we are doing for the Local development) use $TMP -> Click on  .

• Check the newly registered service.

• Select the service -> Click on SAP Gateway Client -> Execute.

• Now we successfully exposed our CDS view as OData service.

• In the next blog post we will develop an SAP Fiori Elements (Analytcial List Page/ Object Page) template and define UI annotations for the application in the CDS view.

Next Step- Creation of Analytical List Page/ Object Page

Thanks,

Ankur Bajpai
