Embodiments relate to computing, and in particular, to methods, apparatuses and systems for operating on a database. Certain embodiments implement a consumption services reference by an SADL design-time tool that allows users to create SADL use modes based on existing Business Objects (BOs), business object entities and associations. The consumption service can provide a design-time tool or user with indications of a particular BO entity's availability based on a particular consumption scenario within a given SADL mode. Indications of availability can be built into or referenced by the design-time tool to give users design-time feedback as to why a certain BO entity is not available. The indications of availability can be provided separately from a compiler or compiler functionality. The indications of availability can be also be reused by the compiler, thus reducing redundant checks and operations and decoupling the compiler and any design-time tool from the check logic. |
