Hi all,
Have a strange one and I was wondering if someone had come across this before.
Hana table structure
entity SalesOrder {
key element name : String;
element contact : Association[0..*] to Contact via backlink order;
entity Contact {
...
element location: Location;
element order : Association to SalesOrder;
==
each sales order has a number of contacts.
In javascript, if I bind on list of contacts directly then I can use the filter
oRowRepeater.bindRows("/Contact",oRowTemplate,null,[new sap.ui.model.Filter("location",sap.ui.model.FilterOperator.EQ, "Germany")]);
and if I enter link i returns the number of entries
Contact/$count?$filter=location eq 'Germany'
But if I get contacts through the sales order it doesn't allow me to use the filter,
oRowRepeater.bindRows("/SalesOrder('mike')/Contact",oRowTemplate,null,[new sap.ui.model.Filter("location",sap.ui.model.FilterOperator.EQ, "Germany")]);
I can return the contacts same as accessing them directly and i can get the information such as
new sap.ui.commons.TextView({text: "{location}"}) same as before but only difference is that i can't filter.
When I try the following I get error
/SalesOrder('mike')/Contact/$count?$filter=location eq 'Germany'
Error
"message": {
"lang": "en-US",
"value": {
"type": "ODataInputError",
"message": "Bad Request URL: U"
}
}
When I open Chrome Developer Tools I see the following error
SalesOrder/contact/$count?$filter=location%20eq%20%27EMEA%27 400 (Bad Request)
Basically the $count doesn't work if you access contacts indirectly even though the link is there.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Hana is sp8, I am up to date with almost everything.
Many thanks,
Matthew
