New (+) button in subgrid defaults to add existing instead of create new


I have a subgrid for an entity,

I want to remove the suggestions that comes when I try to add new entity items to it How can I do it?


Solution

  • If the subgrid is a 1:N relationship, edit the properties of the lookup attribute on the child entity to make it required.

    In the case of 1:N relationships, if the lookup attribute on the child entity is a required attribute the Add button will act as the 'Add New...' button. Otherwise, it acts as the 'Add Existing... button.
