Use UpdatePropagation = Both when line edits must refresh the main page
Description
A page part does not automatically refresh its parent page when the subpage changes. UpdatePropagation = Subpage updates only the part; Both also refreshes the main page. Without Both, header totals, FlowFields, and FactBoxes that depend on edited lines can remain stale until another user action refreshes the page.
Best Practice
Set UpdatePropagation = Both on a part when edits in that subpage must immediately update values rendered by the main page. Leave propagation at Subpage when the parent has no dependent presentation to avoid unnecessary refreshes.
See sample: updatepropagation-both-refreshes-main-page.good.al.
Anti Pattern
Displaying a line-dependent total on the main page while the editable lines part updates only itself. The persisted values can be correct while the parent page continues to show an old total.
See sample: updatepropagation-both-refreshes-main-page.bad.al.
