Missing group with actions for pageextension with promotion

Action Group Disappears When Using ActionRef for Promotion

Issue Description

When adding an actionref to promote an action that is inside a group within a page extension, the entire action group disappears from its original location. Only the promoted action remains visible.

This issue affects all action areas including Navigation, Processing, and other action areas.

Environment

• Business Central Version: 27.1
• Platform: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
• Extension Type: Page Extension
• Area Affected: Actions in Navigation area

Expected Behavior

When promoting an action using actionref, both the original action group in its original location AND the promoted action should be visible.

Actual Behavior

When an actionref is added to the Promoted area:

• ❌ The action group disappears from its original location (Navigation, Processing, etc.)
• ✅ Only the promoted action is visible in the promoted area
• ❌ All actions inside the group become inaccessible from their original location

Impact

• Severity: Medium
• User Impact: Users lose access to the original action location, forcing them to rely only on promoted actions
• Workaround: Remove promotion or move actions outside of groups (both undesirable)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Working Example (Without Promotion)

namespace BeTerna.HandlingUnitManagement.PackageStructure;
using Microsoft.Inventory.Item;

pageextension 5618068 "Item Categories" extends "Item Categories"
{
    actions
    {
        addlast(Navigation)
        {
            group("BET HUM Just a group")
            {
                Caption = 'Just a group';
                Image = Group;
                action("BET HUM Item Card")
                {
                    ApplicationArea = All;
                    Caption = 'Item Card';
                    Image = SetupLines;
                    ToolTip = 'Open Item Card.';
                    RunObject = page "Item Card";
                    RunPageMode = View;
                }
            }
        }
        // No promotion
    }
}

Result: ✅ Group and action are visible in Navigation area

2. Non-Working Example (With Promotion)

namespace BeTerna.HandlingUnitManagement.PackageStructure;
using Microsoft.Inventory.Item;

pageextension 5618068 "Item Categories" extends "Item Categories"
{
    actions
    {
        addlast(Navigation)
        {
            group("BET HUM Just a group")
            {
                Caption = 'Just a group';
                Image = Group;
                action("BET HUM Item Card")
                {
                    ApplicationArea = All;
                    Caption = 'Item Card';
                    Image = SetupLines;
                    ToolTip = 'Open Item Card.';
                    RunObject = page "Item Card";
                    RunPageMode = View;
                }
            }
        }
        addlast(Promoted)
        {
            actionref("BET HUM Item Card Promoted"; "BET HUM Item Card") { }
        }
    }
}

Result: ❌ Group disappears, only promoted action visible
