Hello,

 

Accordingly to Sugar 7.8 Technical Overview, I am trying to extend the advanced workflow by followingthe exemple given (Capitallize action ).

The goal is to capitallize every fields of the bean given.

 

 

I created 3 files :
My JSGrouping located in : custom\Extension\application\Ext\JSGroupings\capitalize_action.php
My custom action definition call in : custom\include\javascript\psme\capitalize_action.js
And my custom action class located here : custom\modules\pmse_Inbox\engine\PMSEElements\CustomPMSECapitalizeName.php

 

I did a quick create and rebuild and I repaired Javascript and JS Groupings.

I also reloaded the entire page but I can't see my customized action in PMSE.

Did I forget anything ?

 

Many thanks,
Regards,
Bastien.

Correct Answer

Create these file to make it work. I have tested it on SugarCRM v 7.8.

 

custom/include/javascript/pmse/capitalize_action.js

AdamActivity.prototype.customContextMenuActions = function() {
    return [{
        name: 'CAPITALIZE_NAME',
        text: 'Capitalize Record Name'
    }]
};

AdamActivity.prototype.customGetAction = function(type, w) {
    switch (type) {
        case 'CAPITALIZE_NAME':
            var actionText = 'Capitalize the Record Name (Action)';
            var actionCSS = 'adam-menu-icon-configure';
            var disabled = false;
            return {
                actionText: actionText,
                actionCSS: actionCSS,
                disabled: disabled
            }
    }
};

 

custom/Extension/application/Ext/JSGroupings/capitalize_action.php

<?php

foreach ($js_groupings as $key => $groupings)
{
    foreach  ($groupings as $file => $target)
    {
         //if the target grouping is found
        if ($target == 'include/javascript/pmse.designer.min.js')
        {
            //append the custom JavaScript file
            $js_groupings[$key]['custom/include/javascript/pmse/capitalize_action.js'] = 'include/javascript/pmse.designer.min.js';
        }
        break;
    }
}

 

custom/modules/pmse_Inbox/engine/PMSEElements/CustomPMSECapitalizeName.php

<?php

require_once 'modules/pmse_Inbox/engine/PMSEElements/PMSEElement.php';

/**
* 
*/
class CustomPMSECapitalizeName extends PMSEElement implements PMSERunnable
{
     
     public function run($flowData, $bean=null, $externalAction = '', $arguments = array())
     {
          $this->capitalizeName($bean);
          $flowAction = $externalAction === 'RESUME_EXECUTION' ? 'UPDATE' : 'CREATE';
          return $this->prepareResponse($flowData, 'ROUTE', $flowAction);
     }

     public function capitalizeName($bean)
     {
                //Change the field name according to your module
          $bean->name = strtoupper($bean->name);
          $bean->save();
     }
}

 

 

After creating these files perform these steps:

  1. Quick Repair and Rebuild
  2. Rebuild JS Grouping Files

 

Refresh process definition designer page and you will see Capitalize Record Name Action.
