Syntax
... WHERE cond_expr ...
Effect
Defines a WHERE condition for the results set of a CDS view. When the CDS view is accessed, the results set contains only the data from the data source data_source that meets the condition cond_expr specified after WHERE.
The fields evaluated in the condition do not need to be defined as elements of the CDS view in the SELECT list. Special rules apply when specifying the condition.
Note
Unlike in the HAVING condition, aggregate expressions cannot be specified in the WHERE condition.
Example
When the CDS view sales_order is accessed, the results set contains only orders where the company name of the business partner starts with "S" and that were created between January and March 2013.
define view sales_order as
select from snwd_so
association to snwd_bpa as _partner
on snwd_so.buyer_guid = _partner.node_key
{ key so_id,
snwd_so.buyer_guid,
_partner.company_name,
snwd_so.created_at,
@Semantics.currencyCode
currency_code,
@Semantics.amount.currencyCode: 'currency_code'
gross_amount
}
where _partner.company_name like 'S%' and
created_at between 2013010100000.0
and 20130401000000.0; //Jan-March
