I have a kinetic dashboard with a grid displaying the rows from my UBAQ. I can use the checkboxes in the grid to select a few rows from my UBAQ, and then choose to run a custom action created in the UBAQ.
The custom action runs ok, but I need to update/refresh the grid view after the action is complete.
How can I tell kinetic to refresh my grid view after executing a custom action? I think it has to do with the events in application studio, but it is not exactly clear.
Thanks for your time!

I did not. I submitted a ticket to epicor support. I submitted it on 10/19 and they are still holding it. If you figure anything out let us all know! I will post back here if I ever get a solution.
I just looked back and the last status was me asking if they had done anything with the case. It looks like they closed the case last November. I don’t recall getting a solution, and the case doesn’t suggest that they have one.
Honestly, I have all but given up on Kinetic. Maybe in a few more years they will have a working product to try out on us!
So this is pretty easy to do unless I’m missing something. Simply wire an After Event on the Built in Action (button) event that invokes the Refresh Event.
Right! and they never have! I get that it is frustrating but what we are asking to do here is not standard it is a customization and requires App Studio. The documentation on how to do this is already there you need to find the right event, and hook onto it and call the appropriate action once that event is complete.
The only grey area I have had issues with in the past is a customization tool not working like documented… Then the support agent (who doesn’t know how it’s supposed to work in the first place) can’t discern whether you are asking for help doing a customization (which is a billable, professional services matter) or whether their tooling is broken. This process of figuring out what the real case is can be difficult for entry-level developers who just might be using the tool incorrectly because they can’t understand the documentation… Anyways, rambling now…
That might be a bit optimistic. I get very little help from the documentation.
To that end, I am trying to get this refresh event to work. I have a button on my form that triggers an erp-baq custom action. After this, I added that event-next widget. I added the Event ID = refresh_UD_OpenJobInventory_0_0.
But nothing is refreshing. Can you help me figure out the issue?
Thanks!

I would 2nd the grid call to refresh over the refresh all.
I think there could potentially be a bug as when uplifting via solution workbench from Test to Pilot. I found the refresh all button stopped functioning on dashboard that had a kinetic cust layer in Pilot.
If calling refresh doesn’t work, you can force the refresh. Instead of event-next, call the erp-baq widget in GET mode and return the results to your view. That’s all a refresh is doing anyways.
Reviver of dead posts here, struggling to write a where clause for this BAQ refresh method. The grid originally uses a where list which was much more simple for my brain, writing the clause is tripping me up.
I have followed the syntax within the example for the “Where” textbox, however my grid still refills with all records.
