3618753 - How to replace a deprecated element inside a Custom CDS View in S/4HANA Cloud

Symptom

An element of a released CDS view may receive the status deprecated. Deprecated CDS views and deprecated elements continue to work as before, but it's recommended that you don't create any new content based on them and that you adapt your existing content to use successor views.

With each software upgrade, tasks are automatically created for prominent occurrences of deprecated CDS views or deprecated CDS view elements in the custom content that you created via key user tools. This prompts you to rework your content accordingly. You can use the Extensibility Inventory app to check the dependencies of related items under the task category Deprecation. For more information, see Extensibility Inventory.

You might also face the following rework task:

Element XXXX of CDS view XXXXX is deprecated. Use element XXXX instead.

Check this KBA to find out how to replace the deprecated elements inside of your Custom CDS View.
