You have successfully built an SAP HANA database module. What scenarios are possible after changing a column name and deleting the cube calculation view?

In this scenario, changing a column name and deleting a cube calculation view affects the integrity of dependencies within the SAP HANA database module. When a column that is referenced in a dimension calculation view is renamed, any reference to that column with its old name in the calculation view will become invalid. As a result, if the column is called upon in a dimension calculation view, the system will not be able to locate it and will fail the build.

This is because SAP HANA requires all references to be accurate and align with the current structure of the database module. When a cube calculation view is deleted, any calculation views or other objects that depend on that cube will also encounter issues if they attempt to reference it. Therefore, the presence of any broken references, such as a renamed column or a deleted view, leads to build failures in dependent objects.

Thus, if you attempt to build only the dimension calculation view after renaming a column that it references, the build will indeed fail due to this broken connection, which directly ties the build process to the integrity of the structure within the module.
