Account Contact Details on Opportunity

[slippy62]

Guys,

Is it possible to display the contact details held on the Account within an Opportunity? Generally we only deal with a company that has one phone number, so I would like this to appear in the top section of the Opportunity. Currently, we would need to click on the Account Name to get this information - surely I can embed this within the area indicated by the screenshot?

It is possible by following these steps:

Create extended vardefs for Opportunities for Accounts fields you want to display in Opportunities DetailView;
Create extended language for Opportunities for Accounts fields labels;
Create custom controller for Opportunities and implement function action_detailview;
Inside action_detailview populate the Accounts fields;
Go to Admin -> Repair -> Quick Repair and Rebuild
Go to Admin -> Studio -> Opportunities -> Layout -> DetailView -> add Accounts fields in layout
