Unable to show BPM Data Form in a Kinetic App?

Kinetic ERP
1

I have a Method Directive on Project.Update and if I complete a milestone of type ‘TM’, it shows a screen asking if I want to create a new milestone (TM1, TM2, TM3, and so on). It’s a simply checkbox but it works great because anywhere in Epicor that I can complete, it triggers and allow the user to create it

I started converting my Dashboards from Classic to Kinetic and when I update a field in my grid, I call the BAQ Update Method which then triggers the form I guess

I have an error in Kinetic, is there any workaround? If possible, i would love to be able to keep my Data Directive

Let’s see the code, may need some restructuring to work with that limitation.

Method Directive Pre processing on Project.Update:

My BAQ is updateable and calls the Project.UpdateExt Method:

In Application Studio, I have a button and when I click, I call the BAQ in ‘update’ mode

I tested it again this morning with a simpler case (BAQ on UD40 and all the scenarios possible) and whenever I call a BPM Directive from the BAQ Update Method (Custom), it never shows in the Kinetic app except if I trigger my BPM Directive in the GetNew Method

I tried to have the method directive in pre processing or post processing and both times, I had the same problem. The problem is only when the UpdateExt method is called via a BAQ. If I simply update the field in UD40 Entry, it triggers correctly even in Kinetic

I’m working through a bug with them on 2023.1.5 where BPM forms do not show up from UBAQs.

That could be part of the problem with the simpler calls.

It will not be part of the nested call.
