BPCExplorer should to be able to handle multi cardinality objects returned from SAPAdapter.

In the BPCExplorer, it corresponds to the single cardinality object returned from SAPAdapter.
Currently, it does not correspond to multi cardinality objects.
SAP may return a response that requires multi cardinality objects. Failure to properly process and display the response returned by SAP in the BPCExplorer can interfere with the delivery of the service about BAW applications.
Therefore, BPCExplorer should be able to handle multi cardinality objects.

    APPC-I-737 The SAP Adapter should to be able to handle multi cardinality objects that are returned from SAP.

    IWF-I-913 BPCExplorer should to be able to handle multi cardinality objects returned from SAPAdapter.

    IBM Support provided a fix on top of the latest SAP Adapter version which is IF40 which will fix APPC-I-737. This was done for Toshiba in March, 2023. The SAP Adapter IF40 is not yet in Fix Central so other customers would have to get it from IBM Support.

    Regarding the sibling idea, IWF-I-913, BPCExplorer can handle multi cardinality objects (according to the previous test result) so this should be considered as “working”.

    When BAPI returns exception information, it often returns a response that includes the fact that an exception occurred as the first message and how to handle the exception in the second message.

    Currently, BPCExplore can only display the first message, so users cannot know how to respond.
