Symptom
A CDS View is to be used but in View Browser app there is "Not Released" status for Key User/Development usage.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
In View Browser app, when searching for a CDS View, there are two columns "Key User Release State" and "Cloud Dev. Release State":
- Cloud Development State column shows if the CDS View is released for custom development in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud ABAP Environment. (This will be applicable for the 3-SL for Cloud ABAP environment for Developer Extensibility)
- Key User State column shows if the CDS View is released for usage in Key User applications, for example in Custom CDS Views app.
If a CDS View is "Not Released" in one or both columns, this means that it's not possible to use it for that purpose (Key User Extensibility or Developer Extensibility).
Resolution
It's not possible to use Not Released CDS Views in S/4HANA Cloud system. CDS Views that are not released are also not planned to be available. For the CDS View to be released, it's necessary to request this by accessing the Customer Influence portal (see KBA 2963059 for details).
