<col sm="5">===Problem/Limitation Description===
If two business objects are related through a parent/child relationship (see [[docs:2000_concepts:0200_basics:0400_reference_attributes|Reference Attributes]]) and the reference attribute to a child is defined as "Required" it is impossible to add a new child instance from a form of the parent instance using Add New button (see [[docs:8000_appendices:0200_known_issues:working_with_references_in_the_operation_mode]]) 

</col>

<col sm="1"><invisible> This is a spacer column</invisible></col>

<col sm="5">===Work Around===
Do not force "Required" flag for reference attributes or create child instance first and then add it to a parent using Add button.
