ABAP CDS Client handling 7.51

[nithinu]

Dear all,

I am trying to define ABAP CDS views in release 7.51. I have a CDS view which selects data directly from the table, a one to one view to the table. This is defined with the annotations @ClientHandling.type: #CLIENT_DEPENDENT and @ClientHandling.algorithm: #SESSION_VARIABLE.

Now I need to extend this view with domain descriptions. For that I have developed a new CDS which reads data from dd03l and dd07t. This view does not have a client specific handling since the data source is distributed across the system.

I have created an association between these views to form a new view which will return the domain values along with domain descriptions. I also have specified the annotations @ClientHandling.type: #CLIENT_DEPENDENT and @ClientHandling.algorithm: #SESSION_VARIABLE. Even after specifying these annotations, when I look into the structure of this view inside dictionary objects, all fields are marked as key fields! This means no client handling is taken place. I have read that, for a client dependent view if at least one of the data sources is client specific then the view can be a client dependent one.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Regards,

Nithin
