Symptom
When attempting to fetch data of extension fields using a Business Object query within the Repository Explorer, all the extension fields are shown as empty.
Environment
- SAP Business ByDesign
- SAP Cloud for Customer
- SAP Cloud Applications Studio
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to SAP Cloud Applications Studio
- Open any solution which has extension fields
- Open Repository Explorer.
- Select the affected Business Objects
- Execute a query on the BO
- Note that the extension fields from the fetched record are empty.
Cause
The Repository Explorer currently only shows data for standard fields, not extension fields.
Resolution
In case you would like to change the Repository Explorer behavior so it can display data for extension fields, please raise a new idea on the SAP Influence portal.
As a workaround, a query can be added on the corresponding BO-Node in the ABSL code so the extension fields data can be viewed while debugging the code.
