displayParams strange behavior

[zacc]

hi,

I put the following code (*) to custom/modules/Cases/metadate/editviewdefs.php:

array (
'name' => 'account_name',
'label' => 'LBL_ACCOUNT_NAME',
'tabindex' => '2',
'displayParams' =>
array (
'readOnly' => true,
'size'=>60,
'field_to_name_array' => array(
'id' => 'account_id',
'name' => 'account_name',
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
),
'additionalFields' => array(
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
),
),
),

this works well, source_code_c field is updated.

I copied the idea to custom/modules/Contacts/metadata/editviewdefs.php where the original code (**) was this:

array (
'name' => 'account_name',
'label' => 'LBL_ACCOUNT_NAME',
'tabindex' => '3',
'displayParams' =>
array (
'readOnly' => true,
'size' => 60,
'key' => 'billing',
'copy' => 'primary',
'billingKey' => 'primary',
'additionalFields' =>
array (
'phone_office' => 'phone_work',
),
),
),

the new code (***) is:

array (
'name' => 'account_name',
'label' => 'LBL_ACCOUNT_NAME',
'tabindex' => '3',
'displayParams' =>
array (
'readOnly' => true,
'size' => 60,
'key' => 'billing',
'copy' => 'primary',
'billingKey' => 'primary',
'field_to_name_array' =>
array (
'id' => 'account_id',
'name' => 'account_name',
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
),
'additionalFields' =>
array (
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
'phone_office' => 'phone_work',
),
),
),

the source_code_c field update is ignored while address and phone fields work well.

if I cut the original code to this (****):


array (
'name' => 'account_name',
'label' => 'LBL_ACCOUNT_NAME',
'tabindex' => '3',
'displayParams' =>
array (
'readOnly' => true,
'size'=>60,
'field_to_name_array' => array(
'id' => 'account_id',
'name' => 'account_name',
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
),
'additionalFields' => array(
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
),
),
),

source_code_c works well and of course the address and telephone fileds are not updated.

the really strange thing if I cut the phone_office line from code (***) the telephone number is still updated. it seems sugarcrm ignores my custom code in this case and use something else.

what the hell is happening?

Hi zacc

Which version are you using?

Cheers

[zacc]

hello

SugarCRM Enterprise Edition Version 5.2.0a (Build 5447)
(Ubuntu Server+Oracle 10g)

first we started on SugarCRM CE 5.1. as I remember some custom codes had been copied to the new install. maybe this action causes the malfunction...

[andopes]

Try to reproduce this in a fresh install containing demo data and the custom field you added in both Contacts and Accounts.
Let us know the result.

Kind regards

Hi,

Well, it's not allowed to create a fresh install. So I made it dirty.

I changed the displayParams to:

'displayParams' =>
array (
'readOnly' => true,
'size'=>60,
'field_to_name_array' => array(
'id' => 'account_id',
'name' => 'account_name',
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
'phone_office' => 'phone_work',
'billing_address_city' => 'primary_address_city',
'billing_address_street' => 'primary_address_street',
'billing_address_country' => 'primary_address_country',
'billing_address_postalcode' => 'primary_address_postalcode',
'billing_address_street_from_c' => 'primary_address_street_from_c',
'billing_address_street_to_c' => 'primary_address_street_to_c',
'billing_address_building_c' => 'primary_address_building_c',
'billing_address_staircase_c' => 'primary_address_staircase_c',
'billing_address_floor_c' => 'primary_address_floor_c',
'billing_address_door_c' => 'primary_address_door_c',
),
'additionalFields' => array(
'source_code_c' => 'source_code_c',
'phone_office' => 'phone_work',
'billing_address_city' => 'primary_address_city',
'billing_address_street' => 'primary_address_street',
'billing_address_country' => 'primary_address_country',
'billing_address_postalcode' => 'primary_address_postalcode',
'billing_address_street_from_c' => 'primary_address_street_from_c',
'billing_address_street_to_c' => 'primary_address_street_to_c',
'billing_address_building_c' => 'primary_address_building_c',
'billing_address_staircase_c' => 'primary_address_staircase_c',
'billing_address_floor_c' => 'primary_address_floor_c',
'billing_address_door_c' => 'primary_address_door_c',
),


I think this section makes the problem:
'key' => 'billing',
'copy' => 'primary',
'billingKey' => 'primary',

If I use this my code is disabled and something else is used (I had not found yet where the key-based copy code). I made three tries and chacked the page source:

1. key-based copy:
onclick='open_popup("Accounts", 600, 400, "", true, false, {"call_back_function":"set_return","form_name":"Ed itView","field_to_name_array":{"id":"account_id"," name":"account_name","billing_address_street":"pri mary_address_street","billing_address_city":"prima ry_address_city","billing_address_state":"primary_ address_state","billing_address_postalcode":"prima ry_address_postalcode","billing_address_country":" primary_address_country","phone_office":"phone_wor k"}}, "single", true);'>

2. without key-based copy the rest:
onclick='open_popup("Accounts", 600, 400, "", true, false, {"call_back_function":"set_return","form_name":"Ed itView","field_to_name_array":{"id":"account_id"," name":"account_name","source_code_c":"source_code_ c","phone_office":"phone_office"}}, "single", true);'>

3. without key-based copy but with hand-made address:
onclick='open_popup("Accounts", 600, 400, "", true, false, {"call_back_function":"set_return","form_name":"Ed itView","field_to_name_array":{"id":"account_id"," name":"account_name","source_code_c":"source_code_ c","phone_office":"phone_work","billing_address_ci ty":"primary_address_city","billing_address_street ":"primary_address_street","billing_address_countr y":"primary_address_country","billing_address_post alcode":"primary_address_postalcode","billing_addr ess_street_from_c":"primary_address_street_from_c" ,"billing_address_street_to_c":"primary_address_st reet_to_c","billing_address_building_c":"primary_a ddress_building_c","billing_address_staircase_c":" primary_address_staircase_c","billing_address_floo r_c":"primary_address_floor_c","billing_address_do or_c":"primary_address_door_c"}}, "single", true);'>

So if key-based copy is inside the open_popup comes from somewhere else. If there is a less dirty method please tell me.

thanx
