CDS metadata extension
A CDS object (of the ABAP CDS) defined in a piece of DDLX source code using language elements in CDS DDL. In a CDS metadata extension (MDE), CDS annotations are specified for a CDS entity outside of the corresponding data definition. A CDS metadata extension is always assigned to a layer such as industry, partner or customer and can be joined using a CDS variant, in order to control its evaluation.
