Symptom
- When attempting to create a new row for the sub node inside the Generated UI of a custom business object, a new object page opens instead of inline creation within the table regardless of the configuration.
- Warning message shows "Some settings can only be applied to certain table types." when Adapting the UI.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the Custom Business Objects app (F1712).
- Create or open a CBO that has a node and a sub node, and navigate to the Generated UI.
- Open / Click on an existing root object.
- Click the profile on the top right and select 'Adapt UI'.
- In UI Adaptation, right click the sub node and select 'Configuration'.
- Set 'Create Mode' to 'Inline Creation Rows'.
- Save and Publish the new UI Adaptations.
- Observe that a new page opens instead of inline creation in the table.
Cause
Resolution
Generated CBO UIs currently do not support draft enablement.
Sub node entries are created on their own object page, so inline creation is not supported.
The default create action for a table on an object page navigates to the item's object page. Inline creation ("Inline Creation Rows") is an application level feature that requires draft handling and the creation mode to be defined in the application's configuration. It is supported only for responsive and grid tables in draft enabled applications.
