I have User, and every user must have one Contact item (but not all contacts need to have a user). A user can create contacts via nested forms, but I'm not happy with that.
How do I set it so that when I go to new User, it automatically creates the first one and won't allow me to add more contact items?
After doing some searching I found the answer, and it comes in two steps.
First, to ensure that the first nested item is created first, you need to first override the new method of the controller and initialise all the sub items you want first, this will cause the page to render with the nested items created.
Using my question as the example, you would do it like this:
controller do
def new
#user = User.new
#user.contact = Contact.new
new!
end
end
The second is to add the following to your active_admin css file:
#new_user .has_many_remove {
display: none;
}
with #new_user being the name of my form, substitute this with the name of your form.
I found the answer here on a github issue for ActiveAdmin.

I have some problem/issues with active admin on rails, specifically unpermitted params error:
existing active admin parameter
here is the existing active admin parameter
model associated with the main model im working with
As per active admin documentation I should be doin right, as the other attributes for dispatch_information model is being accepted by rails and I was able to read and write with out any issues. Just with this recently added attribute "custom_attorney". Associations already set. and with out declaring an attr_accessor on model file it says this error
No method error
as it seems it cannot read or detect the column that I added for dispatch_information model, while in my console its already there.
When I add it with attr_accessor "while it should not, just to proceed on the form page" then I fill in the attributes need, im getting weird stuff in my console
Console view
as you can see it seems it being added inside efile_order hash instead of dispatch_information_attribute hash, and at the bottom part of the image you can see it says unpermitted parameters, even I added it inside the correct attribute block, we can also notice that the other attributes pf dispatch_information works really fine, just this recently added custom_attorney attribute. I already did everything like migration and other stuff.
Form Input
here is my form where we can see that input is on the same block where dispatch_defendant and dispatch_plaintiff is included and those two attribute works fine as well.
I really dont know what I missed here. TIA
The problem is that custom_attorney should be nested under dispatch_information_attributes you have it in the wrong place so it's unpermitted.
The correct way to do that is to add a block for those attributes and nest them.
- f.simple_fields_for :dispatch_information do |d|
- d.input :custom_attorney, :input_html => { id: 'new-attorney' }
It may be a good idea to provide an object for dispatch_information if you care for existing data. Assuming your ivar is named #e_filling_order then you should have the following.
- f.simple_fields_for :dispatch_information, #e_filling_order.dispatch_information || #e_filling_order.build_dispatch_information do |d|
I'm having a problem with the following thing.
In Dynamics CRM I have a Custom Button that created a new Order, the button works great, however, I wanted to make it work as the OOB one and prefilled some of the Account information such as Account Name and Price List (form example).
example
In Ribbon Workbench I've added the following parameter for my button
ribbon settins
The next thing that I've done was to create a new Jscript web resource and add the following code.
references: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customerengagement/on-premises/developer/customize-dev/pass-dynamics-365-data-page-parameter-ribbon-actions
Web resource name: new_getorder
Code: function XrmCore.Commands.Open.openNewRecord(primaryControl) {
var formContext = primaryControl;
}
I've then added the web resource on the Order form where is supposed to trigger when clicking on the custom button from the account form, but I'm getting a script error (which is not a surprise for me)
form properies
I've also enabled Pass execution context as first parameter
Web resource method does not exist: XrmCore.Commands.Open.openNewRecord
new order button from account ribbon
Error when loading the Order form: Web resource method does not exist: XrmCore.Commands.Open.openNewRecord
Instead of custom code, why don't you try Map Entity Field feature?
You can map attributes between entities that have an entity
relationship. This lets you set default values for a record that is
created in the context of another record.
In your scenario, after mapping Account and Price list fields between Account and Order tables, when you will go to the Related > Orders section and try to create an Order from there, those two fields should be pre-filled on the new Order form.
And I think this feature would work also when you have a Orders sub grid on account form and try to create Order from new button on the sub grid.
You may go through the documentation to understand this concept and to check steps to create mapping.
Anyway, I've managed to find my solution by using this script in a custom web resource
enter code here
var entityFormOptions = {};
entityFormOptions["entityName"] = "salesorder";
entityFormOptions["createFromEntity"] = currentRecordRef;;
// Open the form.
Xrm.Navigation.openForm(entityFormOptions).then(
function (success) {
console.log(success);
},
function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
I want to add a new field that contains the name of the table that had that order in the pos receip of the resaturant module, I already have searched for similar examples but couldn't solve this
I first added the variable that containes the name of the table in the models fields (this variable is in the restaurant_table class so I have done an inheritance to the restaurant_printer class) :
pos_restaurant\static\src\js\multiprint.js
model: 'restaurant.printer',
fields: ['name','proxy_ip','product_categories_ids','name_table'],
seconde I have added this line in the pos_restaurant\static\src\xml\printbill.xml
<div id="name_table" style="text-align:center;"></div>
but nothing had changed in the ticket any ideas please?
for all poeple who has interest in this I figured out how to add that field so first I thought that only the pos restaurant module files that needs to be modified so I was wrong and it's what it was all about,so the main file that should be modified is the addons\point_of_sale\static\src\xml\pos.xml ,to specifiy it's the PosTicket template,so the modification showed up right away because after all that restaurant module depends on the main point of sale
I added my code just after the shop widget like :
Table: <t t-esc="widget.pos.table.name"/><br />
and name of the table was added in the printed ticket
hope this helps you
To add fields in POS ticket you also need to add fields in 2 place
i) Need to add models.js file of Point of Sale. In that file there is method name "export_for_printing" under that method need to add your custom field. I added under "var receipt" name variable.
ii) After addded there to view in UI you need to add in PosTicket template located in pos.xml templates.
<t t-name="PosTicket">
Under this template your customized field needs to be added.
I have the following in my application:
Action Orm entity (From telerik open access)
Repository(Of Action)
AppService(Holds an instance of the repository)
when I need to save an instance, I send the instance to the AppService. the AppService then calls a validator to validate the instance to save. the validator is based on http://codeinsanity.com/archive/2008/12/02/a-framework-for-validation-and-business-rules.aspx
(full code on https://github.com/riteshrao/ncommon)
so basically my save function in the AppService looks like this
Public Sub AddAction(ByVal Item As Data.Model.Action)
Contract.Requires(Of ArgumentNullException)(Item IsNot Nothing, "Item is nothing.")
Dim validateResult As Rules.ValidationResult = _ActionValidator.Validate(Item)
If Not validateResult.IsValid Then
Throw New Validation.ValidationException(validateResult)
End If
Try
_ActionRepository.Add(Item)
_unitOfWork.SaveChanges()
Catch ex As Exception
_unitOfWork.ClearChanges()
Throw New DataServiceException(ex.Message, ex)
End Try
End Sub
for checking properties of the Action item the sample code works great. my question begins when i need to make sure that the same action is not added twice to the DB for the same customer (ie. id is difference, name is the same and customer is the same)
as I see it I have a few options:
option 1: check for a duplicate action using something like
function(validatedItem) item.Customer.Actions.Any(function(item) item.id<>validatedItem.id andalso item.name=validatedItem.name))
basically I go from the action being saved back to the customer and then back to all his actions and check if any action exists with a different id and same name
the down sides are:
a. for this to work, when accessing the customer property of the item, the entire customer object is read from DB which is redundant in this case
b. the Any function is being evaluated on the client as item.Customer.Actions returns IList(Of Action)
Option 2: let the validation class have access to the action repository. then i could simply do something like
'assume I already have validatedItem
repository.Any(function(item) item.id<>validatedItem.id and item.customerid=validatedItem.customerid and item.name=validatedItem.name)
this will result in an Exists query being sent to the DB but the downside(?) is that the validation framework should not access the repository directly (as far as I have seen in the very few examples i could find that do use validation and ORM)
Option 3: let the validation class have access to the AppService and use the AppService to check for existence of a duplicate.
problems:
a. I create a circular reference (AppService->Validation Class->AppService)
b. I need to create a lot of useless functions in the AppService for loading items based on criteria that is only relevant for the validation
Any ideas what is the best course here?
The simplest is not to check duplicates in the database from your domain.
When a collection of entities is part of you aggregate then it is a non-issue since you would not permit the duplicate to be added to the collection. Since the aggregate is stored as a whole you would never run into the problem.
For scenarios where you do not want a duplicate, say, e-mail address and no collection of the entities is represented by an aggregate (such as the Users in a system) you can just let the database enforce the uniqueness. Simply pick up the exception and report back. In many instances your validation would not be able to enforce the uniqueness simply because it doesn't have/implement the required locks that a database system would have.
So I'd simply leave that up to the database.
I am trying to design a generalized detail page for an object.
In the controller class I find the list of all child relations of that object.
I then want to create for each child relations found and for accomplishing this I will have to dynamically set the value of list attribute within it.
For example :
<apex:relatedList subject={!ObjName} list="{!relatedListName}" />
But the problem here is that list attribute only accepts String literal, so can't implement it. Please suggest a way for this requirement to be accomplished.
Yes, you can dynamically set the value of the "list" attribute on a relatedlist tag, and you do so via Dynamic Visualforce. This question has since been asked and concisely answered here on the Salesforce Stack exchange for any future browsers:
https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/7531/apexrelatedlist-list-dontexistinallorgs-c-only-solveable-with-dynamic
Here is the general solution:
In a custom controller, add a function to dynamically generate the RelatedList markup. I will assume from your wording that you have already accessed the full list of child relationships in your controller, so in order to spit out all the lists in one block, I would use something like this:
public Component.Apex.OutputPanel getDynamicList()
{
Component.Apex.OutputPanel outPanel = new Component.Apex.OutputPanel();
for(String id : childNames) {
Component.Apex.RelatedList relList = new Component.Apex.RelatedList();
relList.list = id;
outPanel.childComponents.add(relList);
}
return outPanel;
}
In the middle there, you can dynamically set any string to the "List" value, and by iterating through your list of strings, you are adding related list objects over and over again. (To simply add one list, remove the for loop, and make the "id" string value whatever specific relationship you wish to display).
Then on your visualforce page, you can render this block out using a dynamic visualforce tag:
<apex:dynamicComponent componentValue="{!DynamicList}" />
(as you may know, the formulaic value field will dig up the getter automatically)
Great success!
I would suggest trying apex:dataTable or apex:repeat to build your own list display. You will likely need a wrapper class to handle passing attributes and values from the sObject to the page.
