link field to another entity

[Icodia]

Hi and happy new year for all,

In "account" entity there is a field named "Industry", is linked (maybe not the good term) in the "lead" entity. The customisation made in account entity appear in this field when i go in a lead view.

I want to do the same for a custom field created in account entity.

I create my custom field "enum" type in account entity and i dont know how to apply it in lead entity. i try several things and i dont succeed.

Did someone know a way ?

Best regards

Hello,
maybe with a little search/correct

https://docs.espocrm.com/development/customize-standard-fields/

on lead metadata :

"industry": {
"type": "enum",
"view": "crm:views/lead/fields/industry",
"customizationOptionsDisabled": true,
"default": "",
"isSorted": true
}, 

on client/custom...

Espo.define('crm:views/lead/fields/industry', 'views/fields/enum', function (Dep) {

return Dep.extend({

setup: function () {
this.params.options = this.getMetadata().get('entityDefs.Account.fields. industry.options');
this.params.translation = 'Account.options.industry';

Dep.prototype.setup.call(this);
}

});

});

Hello,

Thank you for quickly response.

so i try this with no succes.

in "custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/Account.json" i have my field

"industrycom": {
"type": "enum",
"options": [
"N.C",
"..........."
],
"style": {
"N.C": null,
"..........": null
},
"default": "N.C",
"isCustom": true
} 

in "custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/Lead.json" i add this in the "fields": { ......

"industrycom": {
"type": "enum",
"view": "crm:views/lead/fields/industrycom",
"customizationOptionsDisabled": true,
"default": "",
"isSorted": true
}, 

I create the file "industrycom.js" in folder "client/custom/src/views/lead/fields/"

Espo.define('crm:views/lead/fields/industrycom', 'views/fields/enum', function (Dep) {

return Dep.extend({

setup: function () {
this.params.options = this.getMetadata().get('entityDefs.Account.fields. industrycom.options');
this.params.translation = 'Account.options.industrycom';

Dep.prototype.setup.call(this);
}

});

}); 

then i rebuild and clean the cache

I didnt see the field "industrycom" in the EntityManager of lead

Hello,

https://docs.espocrm.com/development/customize-standard-fields/

you must use "custom" in place of "crm"

"view": "crm:views/lead/fields/industrycom",
Espo.define('crm:views/lead/fields/industrycom', 'views/fields/enum', function (Dep) {

Hi,

Thank you, it works.

in "industrycom.js" there was a space in ".get('entityDefs.Account.fields. industrycom.options');".

I remove it and i see information in the field.
