Description

Context

Some users add the association to the resource file but forget to add it to the model. It happened to me too. It would be very useful to have a debug message there.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate where association fields are resolved in Avo's codebase and add a check for missing model association, then display a helpful error message instead of an endless loading screen.
