ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN CDS Access Control Context

An access control context is a hierarchical data structure with nodes that can have other nodes and values as child nodes. It provides access roles with specific information about the type of data selection that is being performed. Two functions are available to query the access control context:
CONTEXT_NODE_EXISTS
CONTEXT_NODE_VALUES
ABAP_NOTE The access control context and the relating functions are available only internally at SAP.

ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN CONTEXT_NODE_VALUES, New Parameter datatype

The access control context function CONTEXT_NODE_VALUES now has a further optional keyword parameter: datatype. This parameter specifies a DDIC data element that is used to represent the context node values at runtime before they are used in the comparison operations.
