Javascript gives value after refresh only

Question

I have a function that gets called named requestData(). The other values show in the HTML (valueYTD, valueMAA etc) but valueCurrent does not UNLESS I add console.log so effectively it's pushing it to run.

However I don't want to use console.log in my script as its a hacky way of showing all values without a refresh. Whats the best way to do this, please? I have tried using return and && operator to return all queries but this doesn't work.

birst is where I am getting the data from, where the data is stored. It is a asynchronous problem from requestData to handleResponse....

var executeQueryResultHandler;
var processQueriesHandler;


var birstFilters = [];
var birstQueryIds = [];

var birstVis = {
  id: 0,

  callBack: function(listener) {
    window.onmessage = function(e) {
      if (e.data.operation === "executeQueryResult") {
        if (birstQueryIds.indexOf(e.data.callerId) >= 0) {
          listener(e);
        }
      } else {
        listener(e);
      }
    };
  },
  postData: function(data) {
    this.report.postData(data);
  },
  getData: function(query) {
    if (!this.report) {
      this.report = new BirstReport();
    }
    this.messageId = this.getQueryId(query)
    birstQueryIds.push(this.messageId);
    this.report.getData(query, this.messageId);
  },
  init: function() {
    this.callBack(birstResponseHandler);
    this.id = guid();
  },
  start: function() {
    getFilters();
  },
  getQueryId: function(query) {
    return (this.id + query).split("").
    reduce(function(a, b) {
      a = ((a << 5) - a) + b.charCodeAt(0);
      return a & a
    }, 0);
  },
};



function birstResponseHandler(e) {

  var birstOperation = e.data.operation;

  if (birstOperation === "setFilters") {
    handleSetFilters(e);

  } else if (birstOperation === "executeQueryResult") {
    executeQueryResultHandler(e);
  }
}

function handleSetFilters(e) {
  //clear any existing ids
  birstQueryIds.clear;

  //set new filters
  birstFilters = e.data.filters;

  //reprocess queries
  processQueriesHandler();
}


function getWhereStatement() {
  if (birstFilters === undefined || birstFilters.length === 0) //if undefined or an empty list
    return '';

  var statement = ' WHERE ';

  for (var i = 0; i < birstFilters.length; i++) {
    var filter = birstFilters[i];

    statement += '[';
    statement += filter.key;
    statement += ']';

    if (filter.operator === '=')
      statement += ' IN ';
    else
      statement += ' NOT IN ';

    statement += '(';

    for (var j = 0; j < filter.value.length; j++) {
      var value = filter.value[j];

      statement += '\'';
      statement += value;
      statement += '\'';

      if (j !== filter.value.length - 1)
        statement += ',';
    }
    statement += ')';

    if (i < birstFilters.length - 1)
      statement += ' AND ';
