Description
Heba reported an error which was due the Journal "Rickia" having the Referencetype 'Generic'
The reference could be selected in the inreference field but the fields was "red" afterwards and the editor could not be saved:
The editor should suggest the user to fix the reference type in case the type is "Generic".
In case the reference type is not matching the required type afterwards the selection in the field will fail or the reference just disappears, these cases must be communicated to the user in a proper way.
