      You can use SE11--> Enter the CDS View in the View portion. Some of them shows in SE16 also. Still trying to crack why some does not show in SE16 probably a difference in CDS View creation,

      Try SE16N - some of them carry parameters that cannot be filled through SE16.

      Please consider searching for the existing posts before creating a new one and looking for the ways to contribute something additional vs repeating. It's nice to share but the repetitive content doesn't really benefit the readers.

      Haha, I had just quickly written a blog with a report that scans the DDL sources for a given table, when I saw the link to this blog, and your comment. So, quickly deleted again.
