OnBeforeActionEvent subscriber is not executed when page action does not contain any logic on OnAction trigger

[sidser]

Describe the bug If some page action does not contain any logic on OnAction trigger then OnBeforeActionEvent is not triggered and corresponding subscribers are not executed.

To Reproduce Steps and to reproduce the behavior: 1.AL Code to reproduce the issue a) Create event subscriber and subscribe to OnBeforeActionEvent of the page action that has some logic on OnAction trigger. Put some logic in the created event subscriber.

For example, I created two OnBeforeActionEvent subscribers

• OnBeforeActionNewSalesInvoice subscribes to NewSalesInvoice action on the Customer Card page. This action does not have OnAction trigger but has RunObject property -OnBeforeActionContact subscribes to Contact action on the Customer Card page. This action has OnAction trigger.

codeunit 50000 "Test Subscriber" { [EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Page, Page::"Customer Card", 'OnBeforeActionEvent', 'NewSalesInvoice', true, true)] local procedure OnBeforeActionNewSalesInvoice() var ConfirmQst: Label 'Are you sure you want to execute this action?'; begin // Some code, for example If Confirm(ConfirmQst) then; // This code is not executed. NewSalesInvoice action does not have OnAction trigger but has RunObject = Page "Sales Invoice" end;

[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Page, Page::"Customer Card", 'OnBeforeActionEvent', 'Contact', true, true)]
local procedure OnBeforeActionContact()
var
    ConfirmQst: Label 'Are you sure you want to execute this action?';
begin
    // Some code, for example
    If Confirm(ConfirmQst) then;  // This code is executed. Contact action has OnAction trigger.
end;

} b) Publish and Install your changes to Business Central c) Open "Customer Card" for any customer and

• click on "Sales Invoice" action -> event subscriber logic is NOT executed
• click on "Contact" action -> event subscriber logic is executed

Expected behavior OnBeforeAction event has to be triggered for page actions that do not have OnAction trigger and corresponding subscribers have to be executed.
