Symptom
You are trying to edit the description of existing codelist and it is not reflected even after saving (save and activate) from SDK.
Environment
- SAP Cloud for Customer
- SAP Business ByDesign
- SAP Cloud Application Studio
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to the Studio (SDK).
- Open the affected solution.
- Open the .codelist file and make a change into the description of any value and save.
- When closing and opening the file again, the changes are not reflected from SDK.
Cause
The .codelist file should be marked as in an edited state (.codelist*) in order for the SDK to recognize the changes.
Resolution
- Login to SDK.
- Open affected solution.
- Open .codelist file.
- Check out content.
- Change the description of value as per your requirement.
- Click on any other field so that there appears an * sign n.ext to the .codelist tab name on top which means that the file has been edited or 'dirty'.
- Save and Activate.
