Multiple searches bug?

hi guys,

Another one for the experts.
Upgrading one of the custom screens to Kinetic, and noticed a very weird issue with custom searches.
I have a screen with different buttons calling relevant searches, like part, order, po, etc.


Each of these searches calls standard Search-show widget to get results, and Search-value-set widget to write result from this search.

Nothing out of the ordinary.
But, issue is when you use one search, for example, Part, and then when attempting to use any other search, for example Order, you just cannot select the row, i.e. pressing OK button does not do anything. Makes no difference which one you start with, issue always on the second search. Each search individually works just perfect.

Funny enough if you “x” from the search screen it bring record, sometimes, hit and miss…
I have tried to clear returnObj, searchResult and actionResult datasets, but not avail. Also tried with BAQ searches instead of Basic - same result.

Any ideas? Possible bug? Or I did not clear something important.

Use Dev Tools and Ctrl-Alt-8 to trace the events being called when you do your searches to see where things go off the rails.

Randy, thanks for suggestion. Already looked at it extensively and cannot see anything going on there.


GetList is being called on a first search, and then on the second search as usual, but unable to press “OK” after 2nd search. Nothing in Dev tools shown.

Replaced button click searches with standard Enabled Searches in the textbox, and moved search widgets over to textbox click event, now everything is working as it should…This would be a workaround…
