Explanation

A Composite Provider in SAP BW/4HANA acts as a virtual layer that combines data from multiple sources using union or join operations. It natively supports BW Queries (A), other Composite Providers (B) (enabling nested/layered modeling), and Open ODS Views (E) - all of which are BW-native objects that the Composite Provider is designed to federate.

ABAP CDS Views (C) and HANA HDI Calculation Views (D) are not valid components within a Composite Provider. These non-BW objects require an intermediate layer - typically an Open ODS View - to first expose their data into the BW modeling stack before they can participate in a Composite Provider structure.

Memory tip: Think of a Composite Provider as a "BW-only club" - only native BW modeling objects (BW Query, Composite Provider, Open ODS View) get direct membership. External views from ABAP or HANA must get a BW "passport" (via Open ODS View) before they can join.
