Hello guys, I'm fairly new to Creatio, but I've seen there are a couple of functionalities that are missing. Some have never existed in Creatio and some others were in Classic but not available anymore. 

Right now I'm interested in calculated metrics, but for freedomUI. And maybe something similar for DataGrids

From what I see, It's seems possible for developers to make their own add-ons to provide certain functionalities and probably later put in on the marketplace.

 

I guess the normal procedure is reading the source code of the base packages of Creatio and seeing how you could edit them by importing/exporting/extending classes. Probably would help to downloa other marketplace freedomUI products and trying to see how did they do it

 

But well, I was wondering if someone that has had any experience in it maybe has some tips available before embarking into that journey

Hello,

 

At this time, we don’t have a Calculated Metrics add-on that supports the Freedom UI. However, this functionality is on our development roadmap and is anticipated for release in versions 8.3-8.4, as it relies on advanced calculation features currently in progress for 8.2-8.3.

You can also take a look at the Custom Freedom UI page components article that provides instructions on developing your own components:

Hello, the new T.I.D.E. version 1.2.1 received support work with branches

Now you can load the list of branches from your git repository and load packages from branch to environment

 

 

P.S. The next release will include the ability to link your app to a new repository and create branches directly from Creatio.

Dmytro Oliinyk,

Hi, thanks for your interest. Now, we plan more deep integration with GitHub, Bitbucket, and GitLab and their tools. But in the future, it can be included inside the T.I.D.E. or even as part of a Creatio platform.

Hello Community,

We have created a button in Leads_FormPage that opens AddTaskMiniPage

Code in Leads_FormPage that opens the AddTaskMiniPage

  {
        request: "usr.OpenTaskModalPageRequest",
        handler: async (request, next) => {
            const handlerChain = sdk.HandlerChainService.instance;
            await handlerChain.process({
                type: 'crt.OpenPageRequest',
                schemaName: 'AddTaskMiniPage',
                $context: request.$context,
                scopes: [...request.scopes]
            });
            return next?.handle(request);
        }
    }		,

 

Our end goal: We want that upon the Activity is created (Save button clicked in AddTaskMiniPage) the value of 'Start' field in AddTaskMiniPage, is copied to another Date field in the Leads_FormPage.

How can this be acheived?

Regards

Sasor

Hello Sasori,

You can try using BP for this case. For example, when you save a record in a mini page, you also run a business process that will update a value in your lead record. You pass date value to the BP and set (update) relevant field in the lead record. 
 

An easy way to accomplish this is to just use a process with a signal of Activity added with Type=Task, Category=To do, Lead is filled in. Then update the lead with the date. If you have live data updates enabled for the Lead object you'll even see the screen refresh with the value. 

Ryan

Ryan Farley,

Thank you for your input! However, the challenge with this approach is that there might be multiple activities associated with a single Lead that have this specific configuration (Type = Task, Category = To Do, Lead is filled in).

Would it be possible to handle this scenario directly via the Frontend instead?

Looking forward to your thoughts!

Hi everyone!

 

I'm a brand-new developer in Creatio. I've installed the app on my local IIS, and it works fine. Now, I'd like to start debugging/developing in Visual Studio, but I haven't been able to find any useful documentation. Could someone explain the steps in simple terms? Thanks!

Hello everyone,

We’re currently using Creatio 8.XX as a SaaS solution. I’d now like to set up Creatio in my local environment for development purposes. Could anyone guide me on where I can download Creatio for local installation? I couldn’t find a download link for a zip file in the documentation.

Thanks!

Problem Description
I'm trying to integrate an external .NET library (Npgsql) into my custom Creatio package to connect with a PostgreSQL database. However, I'm encountering version compatibility issues with System.Runtime.

 Current Setup
- Package Name: UsrWebServiceLog
- Target Library: Npgsql
- Current Error:
 

Assembly 'Npgsql' with identity 'Npgsql, Version=8.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=5d8b90d52f46fda7' uses 'System.Runtime, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' which has a higher version than referenced assembly 'System.Runtime'

 What I've Tried
1. Adding the library reference directly to my package project
2. Attempting to use an older version of the library
3. Adding System.Runtime reference

 Questions
1. What is the correct approach to include external .NET libraries in a Creatio custom package?
2. Are there specific version requirements or limitations I should be aware of?
3. Should the library be installed at the workspace level or package level?
4. Is there a specific location where external DLLs should be placed?

 Code Context
I'm trying to implement a web service that connects to PostgreSQL:

namespace Terrasoft.Configuration.UsrPostgressConnection
{
   [ServiceContract]
   public class UsrPostgressConnection : BaseService
   {
       // Service implementation
   }
}

Any guidance on best practices for managing external .NET dependencies in Creatio would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

 Environment Details
- Creatio Version: 8.1.3
- Development Environment: On-site
- .NET Framework Version: 4.7.2

Kyrylo Atamanenko,

According to your suggestion, it might function if I use an older version of the Npgsql driver.

Hello!

 

Actually this issue occurs because Npgsql assembly (version 8.0.5) depends on System.Runtime version 8.0.0, which is a newer version than the System.Runtime the version currently referenced in your project.

 

.NET Framework 4.7.2 does not support System.Runtime version 8.0.0, as this version of System.Runtime is associated with .NET 8, which is part of the .NET (formerly .NET Core) family, not .NET Framework.

The highest System.Runtime version that .NET Framework 4.7.2 supports is within the 4.x series. .NET 8.0 and its libraries, including System.Runtime version 8.0.0, are compatible only with .NET Core 8 / .NET 8 or higher.

Kyrylo Atamanenko,

Hi everyone,

I need to add validation checks and perform calculations on certain fields when the "Save All" button is clicked in a specific detail. 

Could you please guide me on how to add custom code to this button's click event? 

Which handler should I implement or override to achieve this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello Rachel,

When you click "Save All" button crt.SaveRecordsRequest is called.
Override this handler by implementing your version of it with logic you need.

Hope this helps 

Yevhenii Grytsiuk,

Thank you very much for your answer!
I tried using the crt.SaveRecordsRequest handler, and it works great!

 

I have another question, if you don’t mind:

Which handler is called when the user clicks the "New" button in a detail that has the "Inline adding records" option enabled?

 I’m referring to this button:

 

 

 

By the way, I noticed the image you previously shared didn’t load correctly. Could you please resend it? I’m very interested in understanding this feature better.

 

Also, is there a consolidated resource where all these handlers are documented? I noticed that the Academy only covers documentation for basic handlers.

 

Thanks again for your help!

Rachel

 

 

Hi everyone,

Just checking for updates on the "New" button handler in a detail with "Inline adding records." 

Thanks!

Hello!
I have encountered such problems, maybe someone knows how to solve them?

There is a configured queue and a process that processes a queue item.

 

 

The first problem is that when opening the Cases_FromPage page the Case state is not loaded into the progress bar

 

 

The second problem I encountered is that it is necessary to close the page automatically and terminate the process element so that the queue element is considered processed, but this problem is solved with the help of this request:

{
	request: "crt.HandleViewModelInitRequest",
	handler: async function(request, next) {
		this.applyMethods(request.$context);
		await next.handle(request);					
	},
	applyMethods: function(context) {
		let methods = {
			closeProcessElement: async function() {
				const state = window.history.state;
				if (state && state.isProcessCardInChain && state.executionData && state.executionData.isOpened) {
					const executionData = state.executionData;
					const result = await context.executeRequest({
						type: "crt.CompleteProcessElementRequest",
						processElementUId: executionData.currentProcElUId,
						$context: context
					});
				}
			}
		};
		Ext.apply(context, methods);
	}
},

 

But another problem arose when changing the Case stage, in this case manually, the page doesn't always close.

I noticed that this behaviour on those stages where DCM has elements of activity creation.

In my case here:

When changing the stage from Waiting for Evaluation to Evaluation, the page should have closed.

The crt.CompleteProcessElementRequest request was executed.

Who knows what could be the problem?
Thanks!

Hey. I've been working with Creatio for some time already. And I've been facing an issue. The issue is not picking up on changes that were added to the files already added to the package when uploading a new version of a package on any environment. I am talking about .cs files, in other words, the source code type of Creatio files. So, when I finish fixing some bugs with the package locally, I go to the dev env. to upload the package there. I do the uploading via `ApplicationHub` page via `install from file`. So, the issue happens only when the previous package version is installed and I want to update with the newer version. If I remove the previous version and upload a new one, all new changes are picked up.

Hello!

 

In this case, it could be two possible options as to why it happens:

 

1. It can happen if the schema has a more fresh ModifiedOn date in configuration, for example, if it was recently modified directly on the environment; if so, the schema won't be updated.

2.  Sometimes, the schema updates only after full compilation. so the steps will be install package -> full compilation -> check the schema.

 

If the issue would still reproduce, contact us at support@creatio.com.

Hi community, 

Where can I find the source code responsible for this checkbox (Make the list editable). 

I want to make this detail editable only in one section. Here is my use case : I'm using this detail in two sections A and B. In section A, I want the detail to be editable like this : 

 

But in section B, I don't want this behavior (checkbox must be unchecked) like this :

You should create 2 separate details. And add them to the separate edit page for section A and for section B.

Thanks Antonii, isn't there any other way than creating two details ? 

Ismail el lahya,

This is the best way to perform this task

Antonii Viazovskyi,

Thank you!
