Issues with ODATA service creation

Question

Hi Gurus,
I am facing some issues with ODATA service creation. I have an analytic view which I want to consume via SAP UI5.
As per guides and blogs, I need to create 3 files, namely .xsaccess, .xsapp and .xsodata. I created these three files but at the same time .xsodata and .xsaccess got created at one more place. That place is my package which I checked out while creating the repository. Now when I try to activate my .xsaccess or .xsapp file, I get an error message - "The file name .xsaccess or .xsapp already exists and only 1 file is allowed per package"
for more info please revert.
Kindly help.
Best regards,
Chandan

Can we add multiple analytic views in one ODATA service?
Certainly.  You just have multiple entities then. You can even create associations between them. Here is an example that uses a combination of CDS Views, Attribute Views, and Analytic Views:
service namespace "Wile.services" {
  "Wile.data.models::AN_EPISODES" as "Episodes"
  keys ("EPISODE_ID")
  navigates ("ToACMEItems" as "ACMEItems",
            "ToCoyoteNames" as "CoyoteNames",
            "ToRoadRunnerNames" as "RoadRunnerNames",
            "ToDirectors" as "Directors",
            "ToWriters" as "Writers");
  "Wile.data.models::AT_ACME_ITEMS" as "ACMEItems"
  keys ("EPISODE_ID","ITEM_ID");
  "Wile.data.models::AT_ACME_CATALOG" as "ACMECatalog"
  keys ("ITEM_ID")
  create using "Wile.services:ACMECatalogExits.xsjslib::itemsCreate"
  update using "Wile.services:ACMECatalogExits.xsjslib::itemsUpdate"
  delete using "Wile.services:ACMECatalogExits.xsjslib::itemsDelete";
  "Wile.data::WileECoyote.Episode.CoyoteNamesView" as "CoyoteNames"
  with ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID","NAME")
  keys ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID");
  "Wile.data::WileECoyote.Episode.RoadRunnerNamesView" as "RoadRunnerNames"
  with ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID","NAME")
  keys ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID");
  "Wile.data::WileECoyote.Episode.DirectorsView" as "Directors"
  with ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID","NAME","URL")
  keys ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID");
  "Wile.data::WileECoyote.Episode.WritersView" as "Writers"
  with ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID","NAME","URL")
  keys ("EPISODE_ID","NAME_ID");
  association "ToACMEItems" principal "Episodes"("EPISODE_ID")
   multiplicity "1"
   dependent "ACMEItems"("EPISODE_ID") multiplicity "*";
  association "ToCoyoteNames" principal "Episodes"("EPISODE_ID")
   multiplicity "1"
   dependent "CoyoteNames"("EPISODE_ID") multiplicity "*";
  association "ToRoadRunnerNames" principal "Episodes"("EPISODE_ID")
   multiplicity "1"
   dependent "RoadRunnerNames"("EPISODE_ID") multiplicity "*"; 
  association "ToDirectors" principal "Episodes"("EPISODE_ID")
   multiplicity "1"
   dependent "Directors"("EPISODE_ID") multiplicity "*";
  association "ToWriters" principal "Episodes"("EPISODE_ID")
   multiplicity "1"
   dependent "Writers"("EPISODE_ID") multiplicity "*";
