Private Datasession would be better to handle.
Allow you use same view alias name with no effect on other private datasession.

Well, the view data requery always to make it up-to-date.
Otherwise, users will confuse that the data filled in application or not.

Generally, you can open same table or view more than one time in different alias in shared.
For example, create a sales order, open the ORDERS table again
to check if the ORDER_ID is filled by other sales.

The extra alias is to avoid the original alias jump record which fire auto-update on ROW BUFFER MODE

Of cos, other sales may added the new record already in other machine,
you must requery or re-open the alias to ensure refresh the up-to-date data from server.
