3699522 - The Selection Checkbox is Grayed out When Trying to Remove Objects From a Custom OData Service

Symptom

When trying to remove an object from a custom OData service, it is not possible to select the object for removal since the "Selected" checkbox is grayed out and cannot be marked.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to the Application and User Management workcenter.
  2. Go to the OData Services view.
  3. Filter for Custom OData Services.
  4. Select the relevant service. 
  5. Click on the Edit button.

Under the Entity Types tab, in the OData Service section, it is not possible to select the checkbox for a given object. As it cannot be selected, it is not possible to remove it from the service.

Resolution

Even though the checkbox is read-only, the object line can still be selected and removed by the following steps:

  1. Select the line of the object under the OData Service section.
  2. Click on the Remove button.

The object will be removed as desired.
