Trigger events when removing contacts (change linked custom entities)

[Pieter]

Many thanks! I will try these options and report back over here.

Contact -> afterRemove

https://docs.espocrm.com/development/orm/#find-related

foreach($memberships as $membership )
$membership->set(['deleted' => 1]) or removeFromDb. https://docs.espocrm.com/development...delete-from-db

Paid option would be Workflow...

Free option... not sure if it possible. You can change a field call "status" to "delete"; Status: Delete
using formula, but the record will still be there, it can't be automated delete. I suppose you can add in a visibility condition where most user can't see it except for certain group/admin... but the record will still be there!

First things first, Espo CRM is a wonderful CRM. Thanks to the custom modules it can configure to be much more than that... Wonderful.

I ran into an issue though that I hope someone can help me with.

I created a custom entity: Membership. Every contact can have one or more memberships. I would like to be able to update memberships to "deleted" whenever a contact is removed. How would I do that?
