Symptom
When saving the draft of a Custom CDS View, an error similar to the following is displayed:
Field XXXXXXXX doesn't exist. It is used in the properties for field YYYYYYYY
Environment
- SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
- Custom CDS Views App
Resolution
- As the error states, the field XXXXXXXX is used in the properties of field YYYYYYYY
- One of two issues has occurred:
- The field XXXXXXXX was never selected as part of the Custom CDS View
- To solve the issue, select XXXXXXXX and add it to the Custom CDS View
- Field XXXXXXXX has been selected but its alias is not what field YYYYYYYY is expecting
- To solve the issue:
- go to the Field Properties tab of the Custom CDS View
- Select Field YYYYYYYY
- Update the Semantic Value of YYYYYYYY to be XXXXXXXX
