This error indicates that the system is unable to find the specified entity container in the metadata of the OData service. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Missing Entity Container: The entity container specified in the request does not exist in the metadata of the OData service.
  Incorrect Service Registration: The OData service may not be properly registered or activated in the SAP Gateway.
  Metadata Issues: There may be issues with the metadata generation, such as missing or incorrectly defined entities or entity sets.
  Service Versioning: If there are multiple versions of the service, the requested version may not have the specified entity container.
  Transport Issues: If the service was transported from one system to another, the metadata might not have been properly transported.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Metadata: Access the OData service metadata by navigating to the service URL with $metadata appended (e.g., http://<host>:<port>/sap/opu/odata/sap/<service_name>/$metadata). Verify that the entity container is defined in the metadata.
  
  
  Service Registration: Ensure that the OData service is correctly registered in the SAP Gateway:
  
  Go to transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE.

  Check for Versioning: If your service has multiple versions, ensure that you are calling the correct version that includes the entity container.
  
  
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the OData service to trace where the error occurs. You can use transaction code /IWFND/ERROR_LOG to check for any additional error messages that might provide more context.
