I've created this repo on github. Right now it's quite a mess, but I'm getting there. Take a look at the files:

• test.php
• ExactOAuth.class.php
  

I took a look at this link for creating a new module and have some questions. First off let me explain what my module should do:

• It'll create a connection to Exact Online accounting software via their API. For this I only need a settings template where a user can set the client ID, client secret, division, return url and maybe some options.
• I'm going to create some workflow tasks that will read the credentials from the database and use them to connect with Exact Online. On every invoice save, for example this will be used to establish the connection and send the invoice.
• Later on I'd like to create a cron that reads from exact if invioces are paid (it has a bank link so in Exact this is automated) and set invoices in coreBOS to paid as well.
  

• I understand the vtlib module creation will auto-create tables and include the module name here. The only table I need is one where I can store the values in the settings page. Can I use the auto-created one for this? Or better to create table manually?
• I'm guessing the TPL files for the settings page go in the same folder as normal TPL file templates, but how do I create a link in the settings page?
• What exactly are the modules' 'event handlers'? This seems like a workflow task?

I've been studying the workflow task in the development wiki, and the suggested github commit on adding tags, but I don't understand the 'getFieldNames' method. It simply returns an array (are the values database columns in the tasks table?), and later on they get cheched on as if they were class attributes. Is this some magic function in the system that checks if a particular entry in the database is there or something? Something that is automatically invoked when the workflow starts?

I was studying this example from the documentation, and noticed this function called 'getSalesEntityType' that checks the entitytype on the id pulled in from the 'data' object. Since no files were included in this function file, I can't see how where this function comes from, although I can understand what it does from the name, I'd rather have a better understanding so I know what I'm doing when writing my own workflow methods. Can anyone explain?

Maybe you ended up here on the forum via Google or whatever, a good place to start is: http://corebos.org/documentation/ if you are looking for general instruction on classes, methods and vtlib.

Hola estoy intentado crear un sistema que tras que el usuario introduzca una entidad esta dispare la creación de otra usando valores de la primera, a modo de ejemplo, al introducir un prepuesto, en el calendario se programe automáticamente una llamada, usando los valores del presupuesto, como pueda ser el contacto y la fecha. Por donde tengo que empezar para programar un comportamiento como este???

Hi,

while surfing on github project, i notice there is a branch jqueryversion

what i understand is that it remove all scriptaculous and prototype librairies and clean the javscript librairies

do you plan to merge it to master branch? 

when could  it be usable?

I wrote a small file that does only one simple thing: Check if the sum of all invoices related to a sales order is at least equal to the sales order total. I other words, you can check if you didn't forget to create invoices. It creates a very simple table. Take this code and place it in a NEW file called SO_Invoiced.php, in the modules/SalesOrder folder:

I have altered the function 'transferForAddIntoTitle' in the CalendarUtils.php file a little:

I am in the process of relating activities directly to sales orders. I created a table that relates them and made a query in 'SaveEvent.php' that saves it, so far so good. Now I want every event to show that sales order as other related modules do. I saw that the Events.php file creates a JSON of all events, that I guess the 'fullcalendar.js' file uses to build the calendar. But now for the moment I am stumped on how to implement my query here and use it in the calendar. I think I should also edit 'CalendarView.tpl' (the jQuery to be exact), so that the JSON is expanded and the jQuery call uses this to build the calendar items. Does anyone have more detailled info?
