Question: Issue of Time-Zone not found.

Answer: The current test SAP Platform, the system uses UTC as the main operating system time zone. UTC is the official time zone used in all SAP public cloud applications, including SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, to help our customers managing global businesses across time zones. 

UTC is also the time zone used to provide upgrades and maintenance to the system independent of location and data center. UTC helps harmonize upgrade and maintenance activities for thousands of SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition systems in shared environments (shared environments might include customers in different time zones). The operating system time zone in SAP cannot be changed from UTC, as doing so would interfere with system operations such as upgrades and maintenance.

SAP currently offers different user interface applications through the SAP Fiori Launchpad, including SAP Fiori, SAP Webdynpro, and SAP Harmonized WebGui. Some applications allow users to showcase time in their own time zone (SAP Fiori & SAP Webdynpro in most cases), while others display time in UTC (WebGui in most cases). SAP plans to transition most applications to SAP Fiori in the future, where customers will have the option to display time in their own time zone based on their settings in the "Language and Region" section (when applicable). New applications will come with this feature by default (when applicable).

The ERROR above appear on the Plant Maintenance "Resource Scheduling for Maintenance" FIORI App when trying to create a "New Schedule" for selected Maintenance Order; at the present non-exhaustive checking of the Configuration could not find any settings to resolve the issue. 

When time permit for SAP server will try to perform further investigations. 

For the time being, the following link helps maybe helpful:

• https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_ON-PREMISE/CheckingTimeZoneSettings/
• Try the following t-code /nSTZAC (which did not work for me in this case)
• OSS note 1203881

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question: Issue of set CLSD not possible despite ZERO costs remaining in the Maintenance Order after full settlement.

Answer: Some of the scenarios of Business Closing (set Maintenance Order or Work Order to Status "CLDS") is not possible is due to Post-Processing Records still pending OR HR Data Transfer not yet completed, the Post will show how to address it.

Question: What is CDS view?

Answer: In SAP, a "CDS view" stands for "Core Data Services view," which is a virtual data model that allows direct access to underlying tables in the SAP HANA database, providing a way to define and consume semantically rich data models with features like joins, aggregations, and annotations, essentially creating a structured way to retrieve data from multiple tables with added business logic directly at the database level; it's a key component of SAP's modern data modeling approach within the ABAP environment. (from the Web)

Some of the key points of CDS view are:

• CDS views act as a layer between the application and the database, allowing developers to create complex data models with simpler syntax and push processing logic to the database for better performance.
• CDS views can be used to perform joins, filtering, aggregations, and calculations on data from multiple tables.
• CDS views can be enhanced with annotations to provide additional context about the data, like business key definitions, labels, and data types.
• CDS views are created within the ABAP development environment using a dedicated language as SAP CDS Views came into being with SAP's new programming model. SAP CDS Views aim to push logic from the application server to the client-side and database.
