2926836 - Cannot load the entityset A_ProductBasicText of the OData service API_PRODUCT_SRV

Symptom

  • While trying to load the entityset A_ProductBasicText of the OData service API_PRODUCT_SRV in excel, you get the following error message:

Data could not be retrieved from the database.

Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make sure the external database is available, and then try the operation again.

  • The following request fails

URI: /sap/opu/odata/sap/API_PRODUCT_SRV/A_ProductBasicText

Found error messages on the system:

The range of the statement to be passed to the database is too wide

An exception with the type CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB was raised, but was not handled locally or declared in a RAISING clause.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Excel

Reproducing the Issue

1. Open Excel -> Data -> Get Data -> From Other Sources -> From OData Feed

2. Enter URI: https://<hostname>/sap/opu/odata/sap/API_PRODUCT_SRV/?saml2=disabled, click OK.

3. Use Basic authentication and enter the user and password, and click Connect

4. Select A_ProductBasicText and load

Cause

The problem is that there are a lot of records in your system under A_ProductBasicText and with current implementation the SQL statement becomes too large to query this. But we have now changed the way SQL statements are formed and now it can handle such huge data.

For now, you can use the filter option to query data in packets.

Resolution

You may face this issue only for below entities:

A_ProductBasicText, A_ProductInspectionText, A_ProductPurchaseText, A_ProductPlantText and A_ProductSalesText

And the fix will be applicable to all above entities. You will get this fix with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 2008 release.

For now, please use the filter option to query data in packets.
