Workflows after save

[danweifis]

Thanks

Hi Daniel

The Alert work flow are all after_save.

here is the logic_hooks.php file generated.
As you can see, the hook is registered for the 'before_save' event.

<?php
// Do not store anything in this file that is not part of the array or the hook version. This file will
// be automatically rebuilt in the future.
$hook_version = 1;
$hook_array = Array();
// position, file, function
$hook_array['before_save'] = Array();
$hook_array['before_save'][] = Array(1, 'workflow', 'include/workflow/WorkFlowHandler.php','WorkFlowHandler', 'WorkFlowHandler');
?>

Is there a way to change it via the GUI?

Can sugar run a hook after an entity is saved only for newly created entities?

Yes, now workflow will only run before save, but there is logic hooks for 'after save'.

you can refer to data/sugarbean.php, save method.
there is

$this->call_custom_logic("before_save", $custom_logic_arguments);

and
$this->call_custom_logic('after_save', '');

workflow will be introduce by the first call_custom_logic.

I think you can custom the workflow to make it run after save by yourself.


But I'm wondering why you want to run the workflow after save?
You can set a uid for a record before save method

 if(empty($focus->id)) {
    $focus->id = create_guid();
    $focus->new_with_id = true;
} 
  

Then you can use the related module information before save.

But such as case_id cannot be get by this way.
