ABAP CDS Views using Business Application Studio

[former_member212817]

Hi All

Is there a way we can modify/create ABAP CDS Views in S/4 HANA using Business Application Studio (BAS) ?

There is a old 2020 Blog Post about that ABAP Development in VS Code | SAP Blogs

But I think to be safe use eclipse, see last comment in the Blog.

Hi Suresh,

We are evaluating that these days.

Would be helpful if you could describe the E2E flow you would like to have in BAS.

Hi Yuval

The scenario is like extending or modifying standard ABAP CDS views by copying them or creating new ABAP CDS views as done in ABAP perspective of HABA Studio on S/4 HANA, but if can be done in BAS connecting to S/4 HANA

Thanks Suresh,

And would you see a need for ABAP programming capabilities, or, pure CDS modeling capabilities will also help?

Hi Yuval

All relevant capabilities for modifying or extending standard ABAP CDS Views with new fields for any business reporting purpose etc.

yuval.anafi So, just to confirm currently BAS doesn't support ABAP CDS views extension or enhancement and creation etc. right by directly accessing from S/4 HANA system as done using HANA Studio or Eclipse ABAP Perspective ? If so when may these features be added ?

Hi Suresh,

Well, we don't have any concrete timeline for that, we are in evaluation of the use-case.

As far as I know, you can build CDS with Eclipse ADT in your system and show this via SE11.

Do you know any possibiltiy to get schema.cds from BAS into my system? Push from BAS or Pull / Get from BAS via DDIC in my GUI? So, I want to change the oData (model) in my system ...
