Filter link field values

[Darkcromb]

Thanks a lot. I will test your code and keep you informed

I am not really sure why you need such filter but i am happy to help, so folow steps below:

1 - this is the content of the field (contact) i am assuming the name of the field is contact otherwise you need to change the name to the correct name

define('custom:views/solicitation/fields/contact', 'views/fields/link', function (Dep) {

return Dep.extend({

getSelectFilters: function () {
if (this.model.get('contactId')) {
return {
'name': {
type: 'equals',
attribute: 'name',
value: this.model.get('contactName'),
data: {
type: 'equals',
nameValue: this.model.get('contactName')
}
}
};
}
},

getCreateAttributes: function () {
if (this.model.get('contactId')) {
return {
id: this.model.get('contactId'),
name: this.model.get('contactName')
}
}
}

});
});​

2 - add the custom field view under your entityDefs Solicitation.json (under custom\Esp\Custom\Resources\metadata\entityDefs\So licitation.json)

{
"fields": {
"contact": {
"type": "link",
"view": "custom:views/solicitation/fields/contact"
}
}
}​

Et Voila

This should do the trick but remember that this filter will only work if the field contact has a value otherwise the list will be for all contacts.

PS: The reason why we used name because ID is not accessible from the UI for security reason, so name should do the trick.

Hope this helps

I think I have to extend the field (link) not select-record.
I replaced and modified the getSelectFilters function but it still doesn't work

[Darkcromb]

In the "Call" entity, I created a "contact" field.
This field is linked to the "Contact" entity.


Currently, when I click on the select button, I open the modal window that lists all the contacts of the "Contact" entity :



But I would like, when I click on the select button of the field, to open the modal select-record window, already filtering on the name entered in the contact field (if it is empty, the window lists all the contacts as at present) like this :


I created a custom view select-record.js, called in Contact.json.

Looking at the forum, I tried to set up two functions to perform this filter based on the "contact" field of the entity Call.

getSelectFilters: function () {
let userName = this.model.get('contactId');
if (userName) {

return {
contact': {
type: 'equals',
value: userName,
data: {
type: 'is',
nameValue: this.model.get('contactName'),
},
}
};
}

return null;
},

getCreateAttributes: function () {
if (this.model.get('contactId')) {
return {
contactId: this.model.get('contactId'),
contactName: this.model.get('contactName'),
}
}

return null;
},


But it doesn't work, no filter is applied. Do you have a clue?
