# 1. Goal
|
|
A personnel system stores employees. Each employee can have a manager, who is
|
|
also an employee. A report reads the manager data of the employees. The data
|
|
must be in the database, in CDS views. The report uses an association in an
|
|
ABAP SQL path expression.
|
|
|
|
# 2. Open questions
|
|
None.
|
|
|
|
# 3. Context
|
|
- Table {{P}}EMP (employee), package $TMP. Key: EMP_ID (CHAR 10).
|
|
Fields: MANAGER_ID (CHAR 10, the EMP_ID of the manager), EMP_NAME (CHAR 40),
|
|
DEPARTMENT (CHAR 10), IS_MANAGER (CHAR 1, 'X' for a manager).
|
|
- The table is filled by the seed class {{P}}SEED_DATA.
|
|
|
|
# 4. Contract
|
|
- Create the CDS view entity {{P}}I_MANAGER in package $TMP.
|
|
Scalar elements: MGR_ID (key), MGR_NAME, MGR_DEPT.
|
|
- Create the CDS view entity {{P}}I_EMPLOYEE in package $TMP.
|
|
Scalar elements: EMP_ID (key), MANAGER_ID, EMP_NAME, DEPARTMENT.
|
|
- {{P}}I_EMPLOYEE also has the exposed association _MANAGER. _MANAGER is an
|
|
element of the view. It is not a scalar element.
|
|
- Both views have no authorization check (#NOT_REQUIRED).
|
|
|
|
# 5. Business rules
|
|
1. {{P}}I_MANAGER shows one row for each row of {{P}}EMP with IS_MANAGER = 'X'.
|
|
MGR_ID, MGR_NAME and MGR_DEPT have the values of EMP_ID, EMP_NAME and
|
|
DEPARTMENT of that employee.
|
|
2. {{P}}I_EMPLOYEE shows one row for each row of {{P}}EMP. EMP_ID, MANAGER_ID,
|
|
EMP_NAME and DEPARTMENT have the values of the employee.
|
|
3. The association _MANAGER leads from an employee to the manager of the
|
|
employee. The manager is the row of {{P}}I_MANAGER whose MGR_ID is the
|
|
MANAGER_ID of the employee. An employee whose MANAGER_ID is empty or has no
|
|
such row has no manager.
|
|
4. _MANAGER is part of the public interface of {{P}}I_EMPLOYEE. An ABAP SQL
|
|
statement reads the manager data with the path expression
|
|
{{P}}I_EMPLOYEE\_MANAGER. Example:
|
|
SELECT FROM {{P}}I_EMPLOYEE\_MANAGER FIELDS mgr_name
|
|
INTO TABLE @DATA(lt_name).
|
|
The elements of the path expression are the elements of the manager, not
|
|
the elements of the employee.
|
|
|
|
# 6. Constraints
|
|
- Release target: 8.16.
|
|
- Out of scope: do not change {{P}}EMP.
|
|
- Use ABAP SQL and CDS only.
|
|
|
|
# 7. Acceptance
|
|
- Both views are active and have no syntax error.
|
|
- The hidden tests pass.
|
|
- Write ABAP Unit tests with CL_CDS_TEST_ENVIRONMENT in a global test class.
