-
-First, you need to expose your service definition (based on your service projection, e.g. **`Z_C_TRAVEL_U_SIMPLE_###`**) as an endpoint so that the **consuming system** can access it. To do this, create a service binding of type **Web API**, OData version 2. (The type **UI** is not suitable for creating the other objects you will derive from it later.)

-When naming, remember to comply with the [Naming Conventions for RAP Business Objects](https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_CLOUD/e5522a8a7b174979913c99268bc03f1a/8b8f9d8f3cb948b2841d6045a255e503.html?q=naming%20convention&version=2302.500).
