When developing SAP Fiori applications, especially Freestyle apps, developers often need to manipulate the metadata fetched from OData services. In this blog post, I will walk you through how to modify OData service metadata properties dynamically in Component.js—specifically, how to customize label values based on the current date.
This is particularly useful when working with price forecasts or time-bound data, where metadata labels must reflect the period they represent (e.g., Month-Price, Month-Std Price).
Additionally, I’ll demonstrate how to leverage SAPUI5 lifecycle methods, modify OData annotations at runtime, and integrate it smoothly into your app logic.
