SAP Reference

Released CDS Views

Released SAP standard CDS views — the virtual data model (VDM) interface views (I_*) that read over the classic tables in this reference. This catalog lists 23 views, grouped by module and linked to the tables each one reads over.

Only Released views are designated by SAP as stable interfaces for customers to build on — the closest thing to a contract the VDM offers, though stability still depends on release state and your S/4HANA version. Unreleased views can change without notice. Release status is version-specific, so verify each view against your own S/4HANA release before relying on it, using the SAP View Browser (opens in new tab), the SAP Business Accelerator Hub (opens in new tab), or the SAP Cloudification API Viewer (opens in new tab) — a browsable UI over the same official release lists this catalog is verified against. For the model behind those tools — interface vs. consumption views, the naming layers, and why release status is the contract — see SAP's Virtual Data Model and CDS Views (opens in new tab) overview.
