  Regenerate the Service: After making the necessary changes, regenerate the service and activate it again. This can often resolve issues related to configuration changes.
  Check for Custom Code: If there is any custom code or enhancements related to the OData service, review that code to ensure it is not inadvertently causing multiple fields to be treated as max hits.
