Task Dashlets

[chrislynch8]

Hi,

How can I show what a task is related to in the Task Dashlet, when the user logs on and he/she has 20 tasks, I want them to see that it is related to, so if a task is realted to an Account then in the dashlet you will see the name of the Account it is realted to...

Is this posibble

I got this solved, by copying the approah in the My Calls dashlet. I have another issue now, with my Accounts Dashlet

I have created another filter to filter a custom field called Account Status, I am showing Account Status in the Dashlet and it works, it show all the Accounts with the different Account Status, but when I use the filter to only see Accounts that have a status of In progress, it will not show any results...

Hi,

This is what you need to do.

Copy the Dashlet directory from the Tasks module to the custom Task Directory.

Edit MyTaskDashlet.Data.php to include the following in the "column" array

 'parent_name' => array('width' => '29',
                                 'label' => 'LBL_LIST_RELATED_TO',
                                  'sortable' => false,
                                  'dynamic_modules' => 'parent_type',
                                  'link' => true,
                                  'id' =>' PARENT_ID',
                                  'ACLTag' => 'PARENT',
                                 'related_fields' => array('parent_id', 'parent_type')), 
  

Then edit the MyTaskDashlet.php and you need to point to the custom directory so edit teh

 require(moudle/.... 
  

and change it to

 require(custom/module/..... 
  

Then admin->Repair->Repair Dashlets

This should be what you need and it will be upgrade safe
