Create ODATA Service using ABAP Coding

1. Create Structures
Tcode - SE11, Structure for PO Header

Email: ypkrbandi@gmail.com 1|Page

Prepared by Yogi Pavan - SAP ABAP Consultant Linkedin – Bandi Yogi Pavan Kumar Reddy

Structure for PO Items

2. Create the Model and Data Provider Classes

Model Provider Class
Tcode - SE24, Create the Model Provider class and add the class /IWBEP/CL_MGW_ABS_MODEL as a
super class

Redefine the method ‘Define’ and add the logic to create the entities with properties.
