I am trying to populate a kendo grid and I get this error message

"A circular reference was detected while serializing an object of type 'System.Reflection.RuntimeModule'."

The Kendo Grid documentation says to create a view model to serialize only the required properties of your model. How do I do that with the generated LLBL code? Here is the link to the Kendo troubleshooting Docs

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/getting-started/using-kendo-with/aspnet-mvc/helpers/grid/troubleshooting#a-circular-reference-was-detected-while-serializing-an-object-of-type

Another solution is adding the [ScriptIgnore()] attribute to the class. How do I go about this? thanks in advance

Got it solved with a View Model

 public class CarrierBundleModel
    {
        [Required]
        [Display(Name = "BundleID")]
        public int BundleID { get; set; }

        [Required]
        [Display(Name = "CarrierID")]
        public int? CarrierID { get; set; }

        [Required]
        [Display(Name = "Date")]
        public DateTime? Date { get; set; }

        [Required]
        [Display(Name = "IsSent")]
        public bool? IsSent { get; set; }

    }
}

[HttpPost]
        public ActionResult BundleStatusRead([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)
        {

            var span = DateTime.Today.AddDays(-1);
            DataAccessAdapter adapter = new DataAccessAdapter();
            EntityCollection allBundles = new EntityCollection(new CarrierBundleEntityFactory());
            RelationPredicateBucket filter = new RelationPredicateBucket(CarrierBundleFields.Date <= span);
            adapter.FetchEntityCollection(allBundles, filter);


            List<UtilityWebSite.Models.CarrierBundleModel> viewBundles = new List<UtilityWebSite.Models.CarrierBundleModel>();
            foreach (ZoomAudits.DAL.EntityClasses.CarrierBundleEntity entityBundle in allBundles)
            {
                UtilityWebSite.Models.CarrierBundleModel model = new UtilityWebSite.Models.CarrierBundleModel();
                model.BundleID = entityBundle.BundleId;
                model.CarrierID = entityBundle.CarrierId;
                model.Date = entityBundle.Date;
                model.IsSent = entityBundle.IsSent;
                viewBundles.Add(model);
            }
            return Json(viewBundles.ToDataSourceResult(request));

        }
