With the 7.0.01 MT (and I am pretty sure this will apply to 6.3), there are 2 places where things are cached/compiled, on the server and on the client.
In the mid-tier config page, you can set the expiration time (seconds) for certain things (js, css, etc.), though the exact setting name eludes me. This is a timestamp that is set for each file downloaded to tell the client how long to retain (cache) the js files generated by the mid-tier. These files will include js files that define AL actions, clientcore.js, among other things. The default is 300 seconds. Flushing the cache on the mid-tier puts these two caches out of sync, during which time, you may experience odd behavior, e.g., AL's that read table data may read the wrong column if you changed the column offset by adding a new column.

** Hi Norm, I've noticed a few times that flushing the cache, and reloading on the browser (under IE) does not do the trick. In those cases, closing the browser, then deleting the contents of the Temporary Internet Files folder seemed to do the trick.

In 5.1.2 you just either refresh the cache or redeploy the app. Refreshing the cache does not do this in 6.3 and there's no way to manually deploy apps anymore. Help!
