[VA] How to Regenerate Views in Vista

Created by Crystal Millington, Modified on Mon, 29 Dec at 10:54 AM by Crystal Millington

Why regenerate views:

  • Needed after updating data security.

  • Can fix errors like forms not opening after adding or updating a custom field.

Steps:

  1. Open VA View Generator and select Add Unsynchronized Views.

  2. Unsynced views appear in the right pane. If none appear, regeneration may not be needed.

  3. To regenerate, click All to move views to the “Views to Regenerate” window. Regenerating all views is safe and may take a minute.

  4. Use Tools > Refresh All Views to include custom fields.

  5. After updating datatype security in VA Data Security Setup, regenerate views to enforce permissions.

Optional (manual SQL refresh):

  • All views: exec vspViewRefresher

  • Specific view: sp_refreshview viewName
