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?

In my search for a better understanding of vTigerm I found this PDF. Now this is a vTiger PDF, that is not extremely recent. Still, if you're starting with CoreBOS development (like me), I think you'll find some nice basic structures about the application in here. Just thought I'd share it in case anyone else is looking for something like this.

Okay, so I've done some quick 'n dirty work on the 'Add Event' UI in the calendar. I've edited the 'addEventUI.php' file as follows:

• How to get the label for the input autocomplete field to take the system variable for the 'Accounts' module. I do want to use this like this and not use the standard 'related to' because I feel this requires too many clicks. I intend to re-design the entire "Add Event" UI in the future to increase workflow speed and use more keyboard input.
  
• I have to place the JSON_Accounts.php file in the root, because I can't include the 'Module.php' file otherwise. Joe suggested that other module files could use this becuase they use the 'set_include_path()' function, but I don't see that function being used in the standard module files. My guess is that the other files can use includes as if they were files in the root because they get passed through the index.php root file. My file is not registered by the system and so does not pass through the index.php file. Sadly, I don't know how to change this so any help would be appreciated.
  
• I'm thinking the Calendar module already uses a 'jQuery UI' include (haven't done the full research on this), so maybe the double include could be deleted?
  
• Probably the javascript could be moved to a separate file and included in the 'AddEventUI.php' file to make the code less messy.
  
• In the future, I'd like to offer the possibility to connect an event to both an Account as well as a Sales Order. I think this will require a new column in the database and some code that saves this when the event is saved. If anyone has some pointers on this, help is appreciated.
