So this might be the wrong area, I don't know honestly. But I'm hopefully looking for some input and help. I've noticed that magic items with limited use such as the Pearl of Power or Wand of Enemy Detection don't list their action or charges or anything on the actions page, and you have to navigate fully to the equipment page to interact with the item and it's record of charges. I've tried making a custom action but haven't been able to make it work. Am I missing something somewhere?
Bit of a necro post here, but I have the same issue. I have a pet that grants my character a limited use ability and I can't find a great way to add that to my character sheet so that it's easily tracked.
Is there any news on that because I couldn't find anything on creating a new ring that has a charge to be added to the action list nor that there was the ability to add an action (Spells were possible)
The way things were originally designed did not support that function, and then other systems were built off of that system until it was impossible to address stuff like this without major system overhauls. They just did a massive overhaul (10+ months long to program!) of the character sheet framework which was the first thing that had to be dealt with so they could build everything else up to match it. So stuff like this is all tied together with other features that should be getting worked on in the next couple major overhauls.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts!

I have the same problem.
Is there a solution in sight?
Yes, the action system needs to be added to magic items. I believe this is in the development plan.
