OData Association Navigation Properties
When an association is defined between entity types, Designercreates and displays the OData navigation elements under the corresponding entity types. In case of single or unidirectional association, a navigation element is added only to one association end. In case of bidirectional association, navigation elements are added to both the association ends. You can view the properties for the OData navigation elements in the Properties view.
