Serveral Questions related to Opportunities and Contacts

[SebastianZ]

Hello Community,

I'm new to Espo CRM and first of all I like it. My problem is, that I want to use the entity opportunities (cause of the dashlets) but I want to show the contact names in list view. This won't work cause it is an n:n relation (and I can't change it), has anybody an workaround. So I use the formula editor and tried to copy the contact names to an text property but without success, any idea.

Best regards,
Sebastian

added Opportunity.php to custom/Espo/Custom/Services/ with following content as described in the second link:

<?php

namespace Espo\Custom\Services;

use \Espo\ORM\Entity;

class Opportunity extends \Espo\Modules\Crm\Services\Opportunity
{
public function loadAdditionalFieldsForList(Entity $entity)
{
parent::loadAdditionalFieldsForList($entity);
$entity->loadLinkMultipleField('contacts');
}
}

cleared cache but nothing happend, no extra field shown in layout manager or listview, where is the failure?

[SebastianZ]

Any hint?

[tanya]

Did you add contacts field to the dashboard layout?

[SebastianZ]

No. Did I have to add it to the dashboard layout if I want to add it to the listview?

here? /application/Espo/Modules/Crm/Resources/metadata/dashlets/Opportunity.json

if this file would be correct where in the file.

[tanya]

Don't know, why I think about dashlet
add to custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/layouts/Opportunity/list.json
