Adding rows dynamicaly.

[sperson]

I created a new tab in Sugarcrm called Parts for managing parts. In this tab the user can add new parts which have a code and a description. In the Case tab i inserted a related field (related do parts) wich allow the user specify the parts used in the case.

My question is:

Because i usualy have more than one part assigned to one case, i would like to be able to add dynamicaly new part rows in the edit view of the case.

It would be something like in the contacts tab (for ex.) where there is an option called "+ Add Address". By cliclking on it i can add more than one email addres for the same contact.

I would like to do the same in my Parts tab being able to add more than one codes in a only case.

How can i do that?
Thanks
I'm using Sugarcrm 5.1.0 Full.

Hi sperson

The easiest way to do this is to create a relationship 1:M between Cases and Parts. Studio in SugarCRM 5.1 allows that.
But if you really wants to use the same behavior in the Email Address link you will need to modify some core code or make an dynamic table for that.

We had make a dynamic table which satisfy this needs.

Let me know if you need any help.

Best regards.

Ola Andre,

Realmente eu gostaria de usar a mesma "formula" utilizada no caso do email no entanto eu imagino que deva ser un tanto mais complicado.

Caso tenha alguma informação que me ajude a fazer desta forma eu agradeceria.

De qualquer forma obrigado pelo retorno.

Abraço.

Hello there,

The task I want to accomplish is similar to which you have described.
In the opportunity module I want to add multiple instances of a drop-down that holds material information and a textfield that holds the tonnage of this material. So one opportunity can have multiple material type - tonnage information and on change this should be visible in the View Change Log part.

It should have the same functionality as the add address link button of the Contacts module. Which files do I have to edit and which tables do I have to create or alter.

Thanks for your help.

We have the same taks to do. We are making a copy of include\SugarEmailAddress\SugarEmailAddress.php
and modifying it.

Actually it would be so much better, if SugarCRM introduced a widget for adding dynamic rows.
We could then customise the widget by adding different sugar objects into it.
