Ralf Handl updated ODATA-1109:
------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: V4.01_CS01

Section 5.3 Parameter Aliases in URL conventions - http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata/v4.01/csprd02/part2-url-conventions/odata-v4.01-csprd02-part2-url-conventions.html#sec_ParameterAliases - explicitly states that

    Parameter aliases can be used in place of literal values in entity keys, function parameters, or within a $filter or $orderby expression.

Examples 124 and 125 show the use of parameter aliases within $filter expressions.

> 11.2.6.1.3 Parameter Aliases specifies that "Parameter aliases allow the same value to be used multiple times in a request and may be used to reference primitive values, complex, or collection values" yet in both Example 67 and Example 79 we ourselves show that aliases can also be used to substitute expressions, something which my developers deem is against what's been specified in 11.2.6.1.3, hence the ask for clarification.
