How to refresh data on the form level with X++?

Posted on by Roy Saliba

Hello, I have a form and a dialog in D365FO that when I click the Ok button, it modifies the data.

My only problem is when the dialog is closed, the data on the form level is not refreshed until I click the refresh button above the form.

How can I write this in my code.

I tried the datasource.refresh() and reread() but nothing worked.

Can someone help?

After the update logic in the dialog code, you need to get the caller datasource and call research(true).

Just get the parent data source in the init of the form.

ParentDataSource = element.args().record().dataSource();

call the below in the close of the form to get the refresh of the parent datasource.

ParentDataSource .research();
ParentDataSource .refresh();

I think you must be calling it from the wrong place/method/event handler, because the code below looks okay. Share your code & debug results.

Hi,

Can you share your code? Did you get caller DataSource?

Also try to use the following:

YourCallerds.reread(); YourCallerds.rereadreferencedatasource(); YourCallerds.research(true);

Hi,

Did you try to call together "reread then refresh"?

Or try to call research(true); alone

Thanks,
