Hello Experts,

we have a problem while using a Edm.DateTime as key in URI while sending GetEntity request to the GW Server.

We've defined a Edm.DateTime field in the Service builder as a key for an entity. While calling GetEntitySet operation, we can get the data correctly. The GW server generates also URI for it.

The problem is, when we use this URL http://myserver:8000/sap/opu/odata/CONET/IMMOBILIENVERTRAG_SRV/RealEstateContractConditionSet(CONDITION_TYPE='0010',VALID_FROM=datetime'2012-01-01T00%3A00%3A00',IDENT_KEY='1000%2F1000000',OBJECT_TYPE='IS ')

in the GW client, we got always a error:

Invalid format (return structure): Property Name 'VALID_FROM', Property Value '00000000'.

Meanwhile, in another project, we use an Edm.DateTime field as a filter parameter to select a range of values. It works very well.Here is the URL:

/sap/opu/odata/CONET/IMMOBILIENGEBUILDING_SRV/RealEstateBuildingSet?$filter=Responsible eq 'Kugelberg' and Stichtag eq datetime'2013-01-01T00:00:00'

We are really confused with the behavior of the GW runtime.

BTW: in the error log, we found out that the error occurs in the /IWCOR/CL_DS_EP_WRITER_XML Class, method: WRITE_ENTITY_PROPERTIES, row: 55.

Appreciate a lot for any tips in advance.

best regards
