Recently, I had a request to create export functionality for a datagrid in the SalesLogix web client. I had a little difficulty exporting data from the actual grid, but as an alternative, we put together functionality to export data based on a provided SQL query. (Thanks to Ryan for working out the SmartPart code)
By creating a new custom smartpart, we can simply export the results of a SQL query to a CSV file, save it on the webserver and download it to an individual client.
First, you'll want to create a folder on the web server to hold the exported file. In this case, I'm exporting contact data based on the current account, so I created an export folder under the SupportFiles/SmartParts/Account folder in the portal manager.

On a recent project, I worked on emulating functionality similar to what is found in the LAN client where a user is presented a dialog asking them to choose between different activity types then launching into the Schedule Activity functionality. I found this was fairly easy to duplicate in the web client, and in this post, I'll quickly go through the steps for creating that type of functionality.

If you've ever created a SSIS package and wanted to provide a way for end users to run that package without having to run the Business Intelligence Development studio, you can compile the package into a dtsx file for them to run. This would require them to manually alter connections and variables, which can get complicated for an average end user. Alternatively, it is pretty simple to put together an application which can be used to run the package. This would allow you to handle modifications to package variables in a much more user-friendly manner.

It's easy to access the UserService interface from a Code Snippet Action item in the SalesLogix web client. For this example, I'm just going to add a button on account detail which will launch a DialogService message with the current user.

Before I get back to Sage CRM topics, I wanted to mention an issue I bumped into an issue in a couple of SLX 7.5.1 databases. Account Type/Subtype combination are generally pretty easy to set up. You just need to create a picklist and name it using the "Code" value for an item in the Account Type Picklist. (For "Lead" for example, create a picklist named "Account Lead" for example). This works fine in most cases, however I discovered that on the insert contact/account screen, it doesn't quite work correctly.
