3321238 - Composite Association Child Object in BCUI

In Configure Object Definitions, a warning appears upon saving when you use a generic object (GO) as the value source of an MDF field and the effective dating of the value source object is set to "From Parent".

Also, if a child object is defined with effective dating "From Parent" and has composite associations with multiple parents, and the child object is referenced in a field in a HRIS element in BCUI, while importing related data in Import Employee Data tool, the child may pick up any parent randomly. 

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