In my last article I covered how to create reusable code in Creatio using modules. In this article I will cover a similar concept of creating reusable code using mixins. A mixin is a way to create reusable code where the code in the mixin becomes a part of the code you’re adding it to. […]
With any development, even when customizing Creatio, good code organization is crucial to get the job done right. Good code organization will make your customizations more easily maintainable, easier to read, and easier to create in the first place. One of the ways you can organize your code is using modules. One of the biggest […]
Something that is pretty necessary to know how to use when developing in Creatio is how to perform queries. When doing a query from client-side code on a page in Creatio you’ll use the EntitySchemaQuery. This article will cover some EntitySchemaQuery basics and some samples for performing a query for a single object, given it’s […]
There might be times where a value entered by a user needs to be unique. For example account numbers, each account will have it’s own unique number. To do this you will need to do a query to make sure no other account has the same account number. Let’s take a look how to set […]
There are times in Creatio you’ll need to do calculations on a page. To do this it is pretty simple but it does involve a little bit of JavaScript. In this article I will cover a scenario where a page has a total amount that a customer owes. The user will enter a percentage amount […]
When you’ve started writing code for Creatio, without question you’ll need to know how to debug your code. To do this, you’ll use something like Chrome’s dev tools (or something similar) just as you would any Javascript code. However, there’s a few things you need to set up to be able to debug the code. […]
One of my favorite features of bpm’online is how you can create your own custom web services that you can consume from the client-side code in the UI. This allows you to offload heavy operations to the server that you can easily call from your code in the UI. These web services are referred to […]
Bpm’online has a powerful backend due to the ability to create processes. You can do just about anything at all in these processes. However, there are times that you’ll want to let the front-end javascript know that something happened on the backend, so it can respond as needed, for example to refresh the screen and […]
In the 8.4 Infor CRM web client, if you add a phone number column to an SData grid it does not handle formatting phones that contain extensions. Phones that are just 10 digits format fine as (nnn) nnn-nnnn but if you add a phone value like “6515554444×123” that value does not show formatted but instead […]
In the Infor CRM (Saleslogix) web client, the Lookup dialogs will default the search field to the first field in the lookup results layout. The operator will default to a default for the data type of the search field. However, this behavior can be changed with some Javascript on a lookup-by-lookup basis. Let’s say we […]
The phone control in the Infor CRM (Saleslogix) Web Client format’s a phone number, when possible, and that’s really about all it does. What if you wanted to also make it so you could click the number to dial it. Other similar controls, such as the web address control, provides a button that you can […]
There are times that you might want to prompt a user in Infor CRM (Saleslogix) to make sure a click was intentional. I recently built an integration for a customer that allowed them to add or remove products from their WordPress/WooCommerce website by simply checking or unchecking a box in Infor CRM. I didn’t want […]
In the Infor CRM (Saleslogix) Web client, users can go to the Reports section to see the full list of reports that are available. However, some reports, you might not want to have available there. For example, at times, you might build reports that serve a certain purpose, that you run via code from somewhere […]
The Infor CRM web client in at least versions 8.3.09 and 8.3.10 there is inconsistency in when, or if, the “Unsaved Data” dirty flag appears at the top of the web client to let users know that there are unsaved changes on the page. Sometimes this flag does not show until a post back occurs. […]
How to edit the Infor CRM Web Client's name control edit dialog which is a tasty dojo widget.
In an earlier post from last week I talked about how to fix pre-8.3 systems. In Infor’s never ending quest to make a never ending quest, they decided to change where this stuff exists in Infor CRM v8.3.0 and up. This Chrome bug only exists pre (I think 8.3.04) so this only affects early versions […]
In the Infor CRM client for all levels of 8.3 and 8.4 if you have an email control that contains an email like “phil.d’angelo@gmail.com’ the email address is not correctly used to open a new email dialog. Instead the email that gets passed is “pil.d”. This is because the launching of the email window uses […]
I had never noticed before until a client brought it up, but in the Infor CRM Mobile client, if you navigate to an account, then do a SpeedSearch search and select a different account, the top title of the detail view will show the previously selected account, not the one you just selected from the […]
In my last blog I talked about how to fix timeless activities to show the correct date in sdata grids. A different fix needs to be put in place in order to have these same dates show correctly if they are added to a column in a group layout for the Infor CRM 8.3.09 web […]
In the Infor CRM 8.3.09 web client timeless activities in the sdata grid display their dates as one day off due to UTC offset incorrectly being applied to these records. The sdata grids all inherit from the Sage.UI.Controls.GridParts.Columns.DateTime widget. Because of this we can fix the base widget function returning the incorrect date value and […]
