I am building a JSF 2.0 Application using primfaces. I have a managed bean that has several objects for different scenarios. In this particular portion of the application I move from a data table/form to a managed bean with an identification number. I pull the information from the database and even have it in the log. However when I make it to the JSF xhtml page the object values are null and I can't seem to figure out why, any help would be great as I am getting no errors, exceptions, or warnings in the logs and all information seems to point to the loading of the data including the log.
JSF Page that I am coming from... jobs.xhtml (I am using jsf 2.2 and primefaces to build this application) From this page the link specifies a job number to be retrieved and the next bean will retrieve that job based on the job number I have it down to just a button that will take you to the primary method and get the information to the next page...

The log shows that all of the information has been received and loaded but shows no where that the information has been cleaned or the object made anew. I have tried instantiating the object in different places at different times but that didn't work.
Before I leave the bean the object has value, when I get to the page the object has no value, I don't understand why
I then tried loading the information from different places. I have tried changing the scope of the bean from request to view back to request but no luck, (I thought about doing session but I didn't see the benefit as well as I just couldn't see reasoning to put all of that information into the session).
The problem seems to be revolving directly around the bean itself and the getProjectForm Method because at one point the object is loaded and then it just loses all of its information.
All of my values seem to be correct as far as I can tell but none of the information is loading.
I can't seem to wrap my head around the issue so any help would be greatly appreciated. if any more information is needed just let me know.
I hope all of this helps Let me know if I have forgotten anything.
