Hi,

I have entity A with composition with entity B.

When I try to insert the second record of B the UI get stucked:

To reproduce the problem:

• clone https://github.com/sbarzaghialteaup/cap_test_draft
• cds watch
• with the tile "Manage Systems" create a new "System"
• press the button "Create" two times to add two lines of the "Products" table, you get stuck

If you press "Create" and press "Back" and press "Create" the problem doesn't appear.

When you press the "Create" button the url changes to ".../products(...)"

Thanks

Hi sbarzaghi,

I was able to reproduce. However, the CAP app responds as expected, and I cannot further assist with the Fiori Elements part. The best way forward could be creating a BCP issue for component CA-UI5-FE.

Best,
Sebastian

Solved with the help of SAP support:

By default when you create a table in the ObjectPage, it is by default configure with createmode = NewPage.

As such when you click on create the applicaton tries to navigate to a dedicated "Products(...)" page

You have two options. :

- Add a dedicated product page and configure the navigation accordingly so that when you click on create you get navigated to the right page

- Change the tableSettings for this table so that it is defined as creationMode = "Inline"

To do the latter, in the manifest for the Systems objectPage add the following

	"settings": {
		"controlConfiguration": {
			"products/@com.sap.vocabularies.UI.v1.LineItem": {
				"tableSettings": {
					"creationMode": {
						"name": "Inline"
					}
				}
			}
		}
	}
