Default to a module in Sugar

[bathi743]

We have an existing application in java. We have a scenario where it demands to open a SugarCRM application on click of a button in a Java based application for a specific company.

On click of a button in java application for a specific company, it should open a contact Sugar Account module for that company in a seperate window. How can we achieve this? By default the case panel in the that account should be opened for the user to enter the case details for that company.

Can someone provide guidance as how to do it?

If I understand your request, from a Java application, you want to launch a web browser and have it open on a specific Account with a new support case form waiting for data entry. You can get pretty close to this functionality by constructing a URL in the following form, assuming you know the account identifier and name.


http://localhost/sugaros50b/index.ph...=Kaos%20Theory

You can then launch this URL and a page is opened with a new Support Case form and the Account already filled in. The only caveat has to do with logging in. If the user does not have an active, logged in session, it will stop and prompt for a username and password.
