3252282 - OData API: Work Permit - ChangeSet index 1 - country is a required field and cannot be blank.

Symptom

You have a business scenario where you need to upload data to the Work Permit portlet via OData API query.

In the Manage Business Configuration, you set the country field to “Mandatory: No”

After you run the OData query, you still notice the error:

<message lang="en-US">ChangeSet index 1 - country is a required field and cannot be blank. Failed record info: XXXX for Key XXXXX with the index 0</message></error>

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
