Missing parent ID during record creation in relationship panel

[bandtank]

I have a relationship defined like this:



In an authorization, I want to relate a new service by clicking the + in the relationship panel:





The flyout appears and the link to the authorization is present as expected:




The request to the server includes the authorization ID as well:

{
   "authorizationId":"625c8623ad61fa0c7",
   "authorizationName":"Non-Billable",
   "teamsIds":[
      "619cdff8812c61705",
      "60e77591063fffa91"
   ],
   "teamsNames":{
      "619cdff8812c61705":"Administrative",
      "60e77591063fffa91":"Owners"
   },
   "unitsUsed":0,
   "unitsRemaining":0,
   "daysTotal":0,
   "daysTranspired":0,
   "daysRemaining":0,
   "unitsProjectedBalance":0,
   "name":"Direct Therapy",
   "cPTCodesIds":[
      "6245811185913e578"
   ],
   "cPTCodesNames":{
      "6245811185913e578":"97151"
   },
   "description":null,
   "unitsMaxPerWeek":null,
   "unitsMaxPerMonth":null,
   "unitsApproved":5,
   "assignedUserName":null,
   "assignedUserId":null
}​

However, the entity data in the hook does not have the authorization ID and the new service does not relate to the authorization:

  public function afterSave(Entity $service, array $options = array()) {
    $GLOBALS["log"]->debug("afterSave",[$service->toArray()]);
    $this->calculateMetrics($service);
  }

  public function beforeSave(Entity $service, array $options = array()) {
    $GLOBALS["log"]->debug("beforeSave",[$service->toArray()]);
  }

  public function beforeRelate(Entity $service, array $options = array()) {
    $GLOBALS["log"]->debug("beforeRelate",[$service->toArray()]);
  }

  public function afterRelate(Entity $service, array $options = array()) {
    $GLOBALS["log"]->debug("afterRelate",[$service->toArray()]);
  }​

The new service record exists, but it must be manually linked to the authorization using the select option in the relationship panel:




This issue does not occur with every relationship panel. I tried several others and they work as expected. I have not changed the clientDef or entityDef files for the Authorization or Service entities. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi,

https://github.com/espocrm/espocrm/blob/095f82df1c93afc428717a79714ab74d11cca2ec/application/Espo/ORM/Repository/EmptyHookMediator.php#L51

the declaration of function is not compliant i think

[bandtank]

That's fair, but the ID should be present in the beforeSave and afterSave functions as well, which are defined correctly. I'm seeing this work as expected in many other entities in my system, so I'm not sure what could cause the parent to disappear.

maybe in entityDefs, maybe missing something.

I solved this problem by removing the relationship between the tables and then recreating it. I don't know why that worked, but it did.
