Page Actions

stormcandi · 2015-08-05

Hello all,

I am trying to add a new page action on the Purchase Blanket Orders Page (9310) but am running into an issue. I understand that for page actions to actually show up on the page, it must have a RunObject or code in the OnAction event. I have code in the OnAction event. For some reason though my page action doesn't show up when I run the page (although I can see it in the Preview). I have it Promoted = Yes, PromotedCategory = Process, PromotedIsBig = Yes, Visible = True.

Is there something I am missing here?

I see the same problem occasionally -- Page Actions that appear just fine in Preview, but don't appear on the rendered RTC page. The action is not hidden by user personalization. I'm convinced there is a bug in the page compile or rendering logic (as of build 8.0.37874.0)

For the time being If I reconstruct the page action from scratch and delete the original, the action appears.

is there some logic inside of page action?
sometimes, empty action doesn't show up.

Sometime it is just because profile configuration. Try to run the client with the NC profile (not configured).

I've seen that too -- the page action is hidden if it has no code or run action. But in the situation I mention, there is code in the page action. I literally copy the code out of the "missing" page action (and transfer all its properties except the ID) into its replacement action, and the replacement action appears.
