  The SAP error message /CFG/DSY_ENT009 Context is initial for View Entity &1 typically indicates that there is an issue with the context or data being passed to a specific view entity in the SAP system. This error often arises in the context of SAP Fiori applications or when working with SAP Gateway services.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Data: The context for the view entity is not initialized, which means that the required data is not being passed or is missing.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the OData service or the underlying data model.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data for the specified view entity.
  Service Activation: The OData service might not be properly activated or registered in the SAP Gateway.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Initialization: Ensure that the data context is being properly initialized before the view entity is accessed. This may involve checking the logic in the application or service that is supposed to provide the data.

  Activate OData Service: Ensure that the OData service is activated in the SAP Gateway. You can do this using transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE to check if the service is active.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the application or service to trace where the context is not being set correctly. This may involve looking at the backend logic or the frontend code that interacts with the OData service.
