Issue
The request could not be handled
This issue occurs only after you assign a value to a custom managed group attribute that is associated with an Object type custom value.
The first time you can edit the group entitlement and assign a value to the above created group attribute.
The issue occurs when you try to edit the same entitlement a second time.
The following error will be seen in the aveksaServer.log:
java.lang.NullPointerException
