CDS View - Value help based on modelled view

[smith_john]

Hi,

I'm trying to create value helps for a couple of fields in my CDS view following the guides here ... https://help.sap.com/viewer/cc0c305d2fab47bd808adcad3ca7ee9d/7.5.8/en-US/8a8415c033d441b2b079a53aff1...

I'm using the Fiori elements list report template. Using the instructions in the link above I've managed to get the fields in question to have a drop down which opens a dialog where the search parameters should appear (based on the modelled help value view) ... but the dialog is empty... i.e. there are no fields!

Any idea why the dialog is empty?

thanks!

Answering my own question hoping someone else has come across this issue and maybe has a workaround.

Turns out the problem is to do with the namespace I have used which contains a / ... my SQL views have / in them as do the names of my CDS views.

This turned out to be bug, SAP note https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/2475974/E fixes the issue
