Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create a table "Shopping Cart"
  2. Create a table "Product" which has a relation column to "Shopping Cart"
  3. Create an application showing both "Shopping Cart" and "Product"
Expected behavior

The relation colums can be edited and viewed like in the normal table view.

Actual behavior

(tables are different from the example above, Product is referencing Procurement here)

The shown error is that the reference entry does not exist, but it does:

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Applications view using two tables with a relation column, then compare its behavior with the normal table view described in the report. Trace the application’s relation handling from the failing view; done means relation columns can be viewed and edited without reporting that an existing reference entry is missing.
