Hide Panel based on Account Type

[raky]

Hi All,

I'm currently on sugarCRM 6.1 and have had troubles attempting to hide a custom panel which I have made based on the Account Type. Ultimately what I'm trying to do is only display a certain panel and its fields when the Account Type = Customer. Everything else should have the panel hidden.

I don't believe that DevToolKit works with 6.1 - if it does I have failed miserably at attempting to get it to work. I've tried some other things such as looking into the detailviewdefs.php and attempting to use something like:

dependency =>

The issue is that I am not sure what comes after that? How do I specify something like:

dependency => account_type='Customer'

I am lost and require assistance!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please, provide zipped custom/modules/Accounts/ folder

As requested the .zip has been provided.

What I am attempting to do at the moment is:

Hide the following panel - 'lbl_detailview_panel1' when the account_type is != 'Customer'.

Thanks very much for your help.

Create the script custom/modules/Accounts/metadata/toogle_panel_fields.php containing a code like that:

 <?php
$toggle_panel_fields = array(
    'account_type' => array(
        // setup here all options but 'Customer'
        'opt1' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'opt2' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'opt3' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'opt4' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'opt5' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
    ),
);
?>  

Create the custom/modules/Accounts/views/view.detail.php according to User Guide.

Hi Andre,

Thank you very much for your help.

I created the view.detail.php as mentioned above and copied it directly from the User Guide.

I then populated the toggle_panel_fields.php with the following:

<?php
$toggle_panel_fields = array(
    'account_type' => array(
        // setup here all options but 'Customer'
	'Prospect' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'Integrator' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'Referrer' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'Analyst' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
        'Competitor' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
       'Investor' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
       'Partner' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
       'Press' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
       'Reseller' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
       'Other' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
    ),
);
?>

I then ran a repair/rebuild. Upon doing this even though nowhere have I specified 'Customer' above the panel is hidden when the account_type is 'Customer' as well.

I even tried adding to the above with:

       'Customer' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 1,
        ),

I placed this as the first line of code with all the other definitions below it. When I did this the Panel was now visible for all account_type even when they were set to 0.

Have I messed something up?

I've tried multiple combination's and none appear to work.

At the moment I have the following in toggle_panel_fields.php:

<?php
$toggle_panel_fields = array(
    'account_type' => array(
	'Prospect' => array(
            'lbl_detailview_panel1' => 0,
        ),
    ),
);
?>

This specifics that only when the Account Type = "Prospect" that the panel should be hidden. However, the Panel is hidden on all Account Types.

I am wondering if this is a bug that has to do with 6.1? Has anyone else run into this issue?
