Refreshing of Main Search Grid after creating a new revision

Hey Angela,

Sorry about that, I was busy in a project.
I just tested it but it didn't work. I guess that it can be because of the Aras version that I'm using (12SP18). The 'window.isItemsGrid', 'window.updateRow(...)' and 'options' don't exist in my context (the method OnComplete of the Action).

Hi Skoleva,

you still own me the test result! That was part of the deal.😉

I wouldn´t have shared this one to a partner if it would not bring myself a benefit. So don´t forget it!😎

Ahh the runSearch trick. 😃 I somehow like the fact that partners sometimes use my most shady workarounds for premium customer projects. 😄

You´re invited to test out this one and let me know the result.

if (window.isItemsGrid) {
window.updateRow(aras.getItemById(options.itemTypeName, itemID, 0));
}

I haven´t tested this one yet case I didn´t had a proper use case yet.

I found a workaround. Not sure if this is the right way to do it but it works for now 🙂 Here is the code that I'm using now:

const topWindow = aras.getMostTopWindowWithAras(window); 
if (topWindow.work && topWindow.work.grid) 
{
    main.work.searchContainer.runSearch();
}
else
{
    parent.onRefresh();
}

Actually, the 'if' is taken from one of your projects, Angela 🙂

The main method is a server-side, the method On Complete is a client-side.

I'm using an Action.

The server-side method returns the new revisioned item but sometimes it doesn't work properly and the item is not 'refreshed' somehow.

The art of proper refreshing item is hard to master. Some questions first:

Do you use a client or server Method or both combined?

Do you use an Action or a CUI element?

Do you return the new revisioned item in your Method? That normally does the trick for server Method.
