Entity Framework Core 5.0 scaffolding issue in DB first

Question

I'm trying to scaffold a DB model using DB first with Scaffold-DbContext. The error I get is: The types of the properties specified for the foreign key {'PARTNER_GROUP'} on entity type 'PARTNER' do not match the types of the properties in the principal key {'ID'} on entity type 'STATUS'.

The only relation of STATUS table with PARTNER table is through some other relationships, and the only thing that smells with PARTNER_GROUP(nullable) field is that there is a PARTNER_ID(not null) primary key in the PARTNER table which has different nullability.
