Hi,


We're currently developing and customizing pre-existing applications in Creatio, and we’ve encountered an issue that we need your assistance with.

For example, when we purchase the Sales module, Creatio comes with an Order Management app and others. We need to customize it by adding new columns and data tables to the Order package. However, we're unsure how to export these additional objects to another environment.


Here’s what we’ve tried:

  1. Using the Application Hub, we were able to install the entire Order Management app with the additional customizations the new objects we added (which are visible in the package) don't appear in the "All Apps" section.
  2. In advanced setting, we noticed that when we add new items to the Order Management app, a folder named "UsrCrtOrderContractMgmtApp" is automatically created, containing all the new elements we’ve added. But we’re unable to migrate this folder to the other environment because the system can’t find the schema ID.


We’re wondering if there’s a proper way to migrate these customizations to another environment, especially when the base module already exists.

Hello,

 

We are on the process of implementing SSO and the users testing are getting confused because they are used to enter their credentials on the Creatio Login page (basically clicking on the Single Sign on link is foreign to them.)

Is it possible to have two different login pages? One with the Creatio Login page and another just with the SSO link?

Thanks,
Jose

Hi Jose,

You can achieve this goal by activating SSO auto-redirect for your site. This way, users who enter your site's link will be redirected to the SSO login page. Meanwhile, users who want/need to log in using credentials can use a bypass link to open the regular login page.

To activate this auto-redirect, please contact our support team.

Have a great day!

Hey Community,

I'm looking to access the `onclick` / 'FolderTreeVisibleChanged' handler of the Folders button on Freedom UI list pages. What is the name of the handler method that i can use?

Hello sprity,

If i understood you correctly, you want to control visibility state or togle mode of the folders tree. The handler you provided, well, is responsible for this logic.  

Here is an example of how you can do it:

Toggle mode (open if closed, close if open):

    request: 'crt.FolderTreeVisibleRequest', 
    params: { 
        folderTreeName: "FolderTree_blabla", 
        togglePanel: true 
    } 
}

Explicit visibility mode (always open or always close, regardless of current state):


    request: 'crt.FolderTreeVisibleRequest', 
    params: { 
        folderTreeName: "FolderTree_blabla", 
        visible: true  // or false to close 
    } 
}

As mentioned, this handler also saves the state to the user profile, meaning that when the page is reopened, the folder tree will be in the same state (open or closed) as it was before. If you'd prefer not to save the state in the profile, you can manually update the visibility attribute, like so:

{folder tree name}_visible => FolderTree_blabla_visible

Hope this helps! Let me know if i understood you correctly and if you have any questions let.

Yevhenii Grytsiuk,

Thank you for this Yevhenii. One of the more difficult parts of working with Freedom UI is the inability to dig into the out of the box code to see how to change the behavior. This was easy with classic, but for Freedom we have to dig through all the minified code to see if we get lucky finding what we are after. 
Until there's better documentation outlining what all the various requests are to handle, it would be great to have some sort of switch (like the IsDebug setting to enable debug mode) that just dumps all the fired requests to the console (and maybe include what object/component fired the request?) Not sure how reasonable that would be since it's likely quite a bit of stuff would show there, but might make it easier to see the requests that fire when some action is taken.

Ryan

Ryan Farley,

Sounds great to me. I will register your idea so that our r&d team hopefully would implement it.

Hello community,


I have noticed that development on Freedom UI requires more resources for local development.

I develop on a laptop with 16 GB RAM, Intel i7 CPU and SSD hard drive and often have problems with browser memory and package compilation.

What kind of laptop configuration do you use?

Hello,

We recommend that you review the article: https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/setup-and-administration/category/system-requirements
 

Perhaps you have deployed Creatio on your own computer, and that's why you are facing these issues. The system should be deployed on a server, and your computer should act as a client, while the server acts as the backend.
 

Assuming that your computer is being used as a server, such problems are quite understandable, because besides Creatio, it may be running other processes that consume memory. And, as we know, 16 GB of RAM for a laptop is not enough for a stable server. In this case, your laptop should simulate a server with these characteristics.
 

We also recommend that you pay attention to the version of your site, and if it is 8.0.9 +-, we recommend that you update the site to the latest release, as we have also worked out issues with the efficiency of processes in the Creatio application and optimized the application itself.

Malika,

Thank you Malika for your reply.

The suggested article doesn't mention the requirement for RAM.

What do you suggest?

Stefano Bassoli,

Dear Stefano, I worked with an ASUS with similar characteristics you mention and works fine and I had in thos notebook 8 local Creatio instances..., Now working with a ROG I9 & 32GB, but with an I7 gen 10+ and 16GB and SSD disk it must works to install creatio locally and works fine

 

Regards

Thank you Julio, for your sharing.

 

I'm experiencing a problem while I'm working with editor with multiple tabs open on the same dev instance.

My Edge browser is returning insufficient memory error.

I'm using using Rancher as a provider for postgres and redis services

Dear colleagues,

 

I'm facing an issue with filtering records in a ListPage. I need to implement a cascading lookup relationship between two Quick Filters:

  1. Quick Filter 1 (QF1): Category
  2. Quick Filter 2 (QF2): Subcategory
  3.  

My goal is to dynamically update the options in QF2 based on the selected value in QF1. For instance, if the user chooses "Category A" in QF1, QF2 should only display the subcategories associated with "Category A.", 

 

If user in QF1 selects Category A & C, in QF2, just see SubCategories associated with "Category A & C"

 

Is this functionality possible?

 

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

 

We have consulted with the product owners of this feature, and we are sure that this task can only be achieved using development.

Also, we have created a request for our developers to bring this functionality in future releases.

Thank you for this suggestion; it helps make our product better!

Unfortunately, currently, there is no option to modify these dashboards.

Hello Creatio community

 

I have developed a page using Freedom UI. I want to develop some core functions that i want to call in different Freedom UI screens. For example function calculate as shown below.

 

define("ApplicationFormSection_FormPage", /**SCHEMA_DEPS*/["@creatio-devkit/common"]/**SCHEMA_DEPS*/, function/**SCHEMA_ARGS*/(sdk)/**SCHEMA_ARGS*/ {
	function calculate(value1, value2) {
		return value1 + value2;
	}
	return {
		viewConfigDiff: /**SCHEMA_VIEW_CONFIG_DIFF*/[..]/**SCHEMA_VIEW_CONFIG_DIFF*/,
		viewModelConfigDiff: /**SCHEMA_VIEW_MODEL_CONFIG_DIFF*/[..]/**SCHEMA_VIEW_MODEL_CONFIG_DIFF*/,
		modelConfigDiff: /**SCHEMA_MODEL_CONFIG_DIFF*/[..]/**SCHEMA_MODEL_CONFIG_DIFF*/,
		handlers: /**SCHEMA_HANDLERS*/[
			{
				request: "crt.HandleViewModelAttributeChangeRequest",
				handler: async (request, next) => {
					if (request.attributeName === "Field1" && !request.silent) {
						var sum = calculate(1, 2);
					}
					return next?.handle(request);
				}
			},
		 ]
	}

 

This approach doesn't work because every time i change the screen the function is removed automatically. 

 

Is there a way I can develop some core functions in a different module and call this module inside my "ApplicationFormSection_FormPage" freedom UI page?
Can you give an example for my case?

 

Best regards

Hello,

A better approach is to use modules for page code. I try to add as little code to the page request handlers as possible and move all code to modules/classes. See https://customerfx.com/article/organizing-code-for-creatio-freedom-ui-pages-with-modules/

Hello,

 

I have a column called "Income" which contains sensitive information and is accessible based on multiple business rules and custom code. We realized that while this works on the form page, any user can add the column on the list page and get to see the values.

 

The column permissions using object permission will also not work because as mentioned above, the field is to be made visible based on multiple rules and custom logic.

 

Is there a way to prevent user from adding this column on the List page?

We make detail (even if there will be only one record) with records permission for such cases

Vladimir Sokolov,

That is a great idea to be sure that this value is not pulled anywhere! As of current implementation for us, we would like to retain the field at the section level and are looking for ways by which the visibility can be controlled. 

I think, there has to be way for the rules on form page to reflect on the list page and in folders as well. In most cases, we hide the fields because it has information that need not be shown to some users and the platform unfortunately provides a way to by-pass this by letting users add the field on the list page.

It is possible to change the name of the mobile app?

 

Can be rename with the name of the company instead of "Creatio"?

Hello,

 

While it is not possible to change the name of the mobile app directly, you can use Mobile Branding to customize your mobile application.

 

You can find more information about Mobile app Branding in this article: https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/dev/development-on-creatio-platfor…

Thanks for the tip

Hi! How to place a button at dashboard section ? I know there is an article 
https://academy.creatio.com/docs/developer/interface_elements/record_page/button/overview

Hello,

You can use this instruction: https://academy.creatio.com/docs/developer/interface_elements/record_page/button/overview to add the necessary button to any section. If you have a Freedom UI, you can use the Button component for dashboards using this article: https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/no-code-customization/customization-tools/ui-and-business-logic-customization/UI-designer#title-2230-17.

 

Malika,

as I said in the post, this article does not answer my question, there is no container for the dashboard section

Andrii Herbshtasov,

Unfortunately, there is no way to implement the button in the dashboard section. 

As a workaround you can create a custom page in FreedomUI by no-code methods and add a Button with all needed dashboards.
