I'm adding an activity to the order (header) which is done from the Timeline grid. I'm keeping a count of the open activities on the header so I force the recalculation of the rollup count from the activity event steps.

This count is used to control display of a button in the ribbon. Considering the count is accurate on the server but not on the form and a form refresh is required to execute the ribbon refresh, how might the activity quick create form force a refresh of the order form?

TIA

You might be able to add some on save javascript to the quick create form.

OnSave of QC Record > get parent ID (so the order guid), then use some combination of the below, I havent tried this exact requirement before, but I have opened a record with the openform javascript before, Ive also used the close record javascript - if saving takes you to the new Quick Create record you could consider using that too.
