Hello Ramnath,

rootEntitySchemaName is the name of the parent object. This is likely the object for the page where the detail is located, so if the detail is on the Account page, this would be Account

rootColumnName is the name of the column on the detail object that relates it to the parent object. In the example of being on the Account page, this would be the name of the column on the detail object that is the account lookup, such as UsrAccount

relatedEntitySchemaName is the name of the object you're looking up to add to the detail. So, if the lookup is looking up contacts, this would be Contact

relatedColumnName is the name of the column on the detail object that the result from the lookup is stored in. So in the example of looking up contacts, this would be a contact lookup on the detail object, such as UsrContact.

Maybe this article will help? https://customerfx.com/article/adding-to-a-detail-from-a-lookup-in-crea…

Ryan,

Thanks for helping me out.

Please guide me in this situation more.

Overview of whole scenario

I created a custom detail in a custom section.  I have created a Section Contacts (neither base object nor replacing object, It is custom made) and Clients Section. Clients section has a detail Contacts. The detail's object name is the Contacts section.

Section Page - UsrClients

Detail object - UsrContacts (has lookup of UsrClient for connecting record to UsrClients with other inherited columns present in UsrContacts)

Now the name will be

rootEntitySchemaName - UsrClients (section page object name)

rootColumnName - UsrClient  (the referencing lookup present in UsrContacts)

relatedEntitySchemaName - UsrContacts (Section page from where records will be read)

relatedColumnName - UsrContact (lookup present in detail)

Now the problem is how can I create a lookup pointing to the same object on which detail is build.

Lookup points to UsrContacts and detail is also created on UsrContacts.

RAMNATH SHARMA,

The detail should be a separate object. Like in the example on the academy, OpportunityContact object on which the detail is built on contains Opportunity and Contact columns. In your case, you would need to create a separate object for the detail that would contain UsrClients and UscrContacts columns, and build the detail on this object. 

Dennis Hudson,

Yes, you are right. I have created a new object with 2 looks fields to add this functionality. And it works.

Thanks

The method will get passed two parameters, the second parameter is the field that triggered the event. You could use something like this:

calculateLength: function(sender, field) {
    switch(field) {
        case "UsrLengthCM":
            // ...
        case "UsrLengthInches":
            // ...
        // etc
    }
}

Not sure if that's something that will help, but thought I'd mention it.

Ryan Farley,

Exactly what I need thank you!

If you have a ZIP code field or similar in City to filter it by, you can set up a business rule similar to this, with your field in place of Description:

If you require more complex logic, go to the edit page in the backend and add a dependency to the attributes section:

attributes: {
    "City": {
	dependencies: [
	    {
		columns: ["Zip"],
		methodName: "doSomething"
	    }
	]
    }
}

And include your logic in the doSomething method, which will be called every time Zip is changed.

Dear Agha,

Please check the example provided by Darian. For the simple business task it is recommended to use business rules. 

In case you need more complex logic, including if clause, or evaluation on Id, or any other logic, which cannot be implemented by business rules, please use attributes.

In order to add an attribute you need to go to Advanced settings --> create a new replacing module for your page --> add an attribute and save the schema --> clear browser cache. 

Please see articles on schema attributes:

Edgar,

What does your page designer look like?

Jordan Kincer,

Jordan Kincer,

Try the first image using the wizard, but when you can not get elements such as a combobox, I started using the creation in Advance Settings

So for Radio Buttons, you can code them in, but I had issues getting more than three options on the page. If you are restricting the seleciton to one option, I might recommend using a lookup field.

As for the table/detail, I can see that your pre-configured page is missing a 'Tabs' section at the bottom which is the only place a detail can be added. 

When you first create a pre-configured page, it prompts you to select a template. If you want it to have Details inside it, one of the 'Tabbed Page' templates need to be selected.

Are you having issues putting a lookup/dropdown on your page as well?

You'll use PushHistoryState to navigate to a section in client code. The following will go to the Contacts section: 

this.sandbox.publish("PushHistoryState", {hash: "SectionModuleV2/ContactSectionV2"});

The "hash" parameter is what appears after the ViewModule.aspx# in the url. 

Ryan

Dear Fulgen,

You can achieve such task in two ways. The first one is described by Ryan. This is an elegant and easy way to manipulate navigation.

Other approach is to use window.location.assign method https://webplatform.github.io/docs/apis/location/assign/ using relative or full path to the page. This approach will save browser history.

Regards,

Anastasia

See currentState from HistoryState

var state = sandbox.publish("GetHistoryState");

            var currentHash = state.hash;

            var currentState = state.state || {};                                           console.dir(currentState)

Something like this

this.openCardInChain({
    schemaName: "UsrMyPage",
    operation: ConfigurationEnums.CardStateV2.EDIT,
    id: theIdToEdit,
    moduleId: this.sandbox.id + "_UsrMyPage"
});

You'll also need to add ConfigurationEnums to the modules list. This means you'll add ConifurationEnums to the module/page you're using this code above from:

define("UsrMyCurrentPageV2", ["ConfigurationEnums"],
	function(ConfigurationEnums) {
 
    //....
 
}

Ryan

Thank you Ryan, this is what i am looking.

Fulgen Ninofranco,

Hi,

 id: theIdToEdit,Here which id we have to mention in the code.

praveen n,

Supply the Id of the record.
