Hi,

And what is the datatype for the PDS_UsrWorkHours_sjx2srh and UsrActualFuelRemaining? And what is the error message you receive?

Hello,
The ability to add dynamic parameters to a validator is still under development, as a way around you can try using global variables like window. For example

handlers: /**SCHEMA_HANDLERS*/[
{
    request: "dw.StartDateChange",
    handler: async (request, next) => {
        window.StartDate = await request.$context.DateTimeAttribute_lpcf566;
        if(request.$context.IsStartDateInited) {
            request.$context.validate();
        }
        request.$context.IsStartDateInited = true;
        return next?.handle(request);
    }
}]                
...        

"dw.StartDateIsNotNotLessThanProjectStartDate": {
    "validator": function (config) {
        return function (control) {
            return (!control.value || control.value >= window.StartDate)
                ? null
                : {"dw.StartDateValidator": {message: config.message}};
        };
    },
    "params": [
        {
            "name": "message"
        }
    ],
    "async": false
}

You can use the CardState to see if the record is in add mode (record is being added, saved for first time) or edit mode:

const mode = await request.$context.CardMode;
if (mode === “add”) {
    //
}

If you need to call some code exactly once when a record is created, I'd suggest moving the whole logic to backend. Specifically EntityEventListener and implement OnInserting or OnInserted methods to call your logic before or after the record is saved

Ryan Farley,

Hey Ryan,

Thanks for the reply, however that didn't work. The CardMode returns undefined, and when inspecting it in developer tools (request.$context object) the value is always 'edit' , when inserting the first time or when updating. Is there anything else I can do to fix the issue? Thanks

Best,

Mohamad

Yurii Sokil,

Hey Yurii,

Thanks for the reply, I have tried moving the logic to backend, however I encountered some issues. The overloaded method OnInserted cannot be async, and therefore I cannot call APIs directly from that method.

There is another option to call asynchronously using this method https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/dev/development-on-creatio-platform/back-end-development/objects-business-logic#title-2173-11 . However that doesn't solve the problem as if there were any errors when executing the asynchronous code, the record gets saved normally without indicating errors. Its a fire and forget operation and I need something that prevents a record from being inserted if the API call failed. Is there any way I can achieve this? Thanks for help

Best,

Mohamad

I need something like this but on freedom UI page instead of classic UI page

https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/dev/development-on-creatio-platform/platform-customization/classic-ui/record-page/field/examples/enable-the-automatic-numbering-front-end

Mohamad Salhani,

If all you're after is to set up an auto number column, you can use the new auto number column default value. See https://customerfx.com/article/working-with-autonumber-fields-in-creatio/

Ryan

Ryan Farley,

No, so basically I need to populate a field once a record is created, and the value comes from an external API that I have to call

Ryan Farley,

Thanks for the support, I was finally able to solve it by checking the createdOn and modifiedOn dates for the record and see if they are equal, this way I can identify if the record was added for the first time or not. 

Thanks again!

Hi Mohamad, 
You can use AsyncPump.Run() to call async methods synchronously in your event listener. Also you can override OnInserting rather than OnInserted so your logic is called before the record is actually saved. 

Yurii Sokil,

Hey Yuri,

Thanks for the reply! It did work however I have a question. How can I pass arguments to the method passed in AsyncPump.Run() ? 

I have this code, but I can't pass arguments to the method.

[EntityEventListener(SchemaName = "UsrPetolTest")]
public class CustomEntityEventListener : BaseEntityEventListener
{
    public override void OnInserting(object sender, EntityBeforeEventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnInserting(sender, e);
 
        var entity = (Entity)sender;
        var userConnection = entity.UserConnection;
 
        AsyncPump.Run(testing);
 
    }
 
    private async void testing()
    {
        try
        {

Best,

Mohamad

The timer will adjust to the units that makes the most sense for the time period. I have a timer component that is set as a "Count up timer" using the time since a case was created. If the time period is short it displays hours and minutes.

If the time period is long it automatically switches to months & days:

Ryan

Ryan Farley,

Thank you Ryan, that's great! I have been hesistant to adding this, as it didn't make sense displaying in Hrs/Min. :)

You can choose the visibility to "visible": { bindTo:  "IsVisible" } and add the conditions if needed:

isVisible: function() {
             if ( ---- )  
                     return true;
             return false;
}
 
OR
 
showButton: function() {
			this.callParent();
			this.set("isVisible", false);
			},

Best regards, Anhelina!

Anhelina,

Could you please clarify how to define the function in the schema?  

Is there any reference how to define the Functions in "ClientUnitSchemaDesigner". 

If you're wanting to wire up code to run when the button in clicked, see this article: https://customerfx.com/article/adding-a-button-to-execute-custom-code-on-a-creatio-freedom-ui-page/

As for the visible property, using {bindTo: "something"} doesn't work for Freedom UI pages (that is for classic). Instead you'd add an attribute and bind it using "$AttributeName", then set that attribute elsewhere like in the model init request. 

Using attributes: https://customerfx.com/article/using-custom-attributes-on-a-creatio-freedom-ui-page/

Using the model init handler: https://customerfx.com/article/waiting-for-model-to-be-ready-and-loaded-in-the-crt-handleviewmodelinitrequest-on-creatio-freedom-ui-pages/

This article shows how to make something visible or not based on if the user is a member of a role: https://customerfx.com/article/showing-or-hiding-a-field-if-the-current…

Ryan

Ajay,

Ryan is right. Suggested method works for ClassicUI but doesn't work with Freedom UI. The way to use visible property has changed. You can check the instructions from the Academy "Hide the feature on a page behind access permissions"

Hello!

It depends on whether the parameters with NULL values are required or not.

You can try leaving out the NULL parameters and see how the service responds. If the call fails with an error, then you'll need to include those parameters.

Let us know if you need further assistance!

If the API you're calling is picky about the parameters being included without values, you can add the same service method twice, once with the params, and one without. Then just call one or the other based on the needs.

Thanks for the replies, would be nice to have a way to disable a parameter, for situations like this.
For thie particular API I´m calling there are about 10 parameters available, and the way Creatio is doing, it´s sending all (query) parameters, even though its value is empty.
I´m trying to find a work around or a way to call this API sending only the required data.

Hello,

If you have these translations in package A, yes, you can delete the replaced data from package B and the translations from package A will be displayed.

Kalymbet Anastasia,

Thank you Anastasia.

Do you suggest removing the  replacing "client module" from package B?

If so, I would lose my customizations such as fields added

Hello,

All translations are stored in the Translation section. If I understood you correctly, they have recently been changed.

If they were simply changed and are not stored in package A, you won't be able to restore them.

In the section, these translations are the same for all packages.

https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/no-code-customization/customization-tools/custom-localization/localize-ui-via-the-[translation]-section

Hi,

when I access to translation page on my laptop the application hangs up, so I can't use it

Hello Behruzbek Mardonqulov,

Thank you for your question. Could you please provide more details to your question: like what business logic should this perform, what exactly you cannot achieve etc. I would like to help, but i do not think that i fully understand your question.

Please use another approach in your business task. It seems impossible to set the response from a third-party service in the dropdown.

You can implement a virtual entity with entity executor on the backend which'll call the 3rd party service and parse the response into entities.
On frontend you'll just use it as a regular object.
