  • 1.  Put "Attach Document" in menubar

    Posted Jan 26, 2016 12:54 PM

    Hi everyone,

     

    I need to put the "Attach Document" command (from Attachment tab) into menubar in detail_cr.htmpl form. However, no matter what I do, the JavaScript calling does not work.

     

    Here is my code in menubar_sd_l2_analyst.htmpl:

     

    <PDM_OBJECT>
    function do_attach_doc() {
       var add_file_src = "View=Upload+ShowFields=Yes+ShowImgStatus=Yes+ShowRepList=Yes+RepType=0+KEEP.POPUP_NAME=" + top.name + 
                          "+KEEP.PARENT_DIV=" + window.frameElement.parentNode.id + "+KEEP.attmnt_parent=$args.persistent_id";
       AddFile(0, 0, 0, add_file_src, 50 );
    }
    <PDM_MACRO name=menuItem label="Attach_File" function="JavaScript: do_attach_doc()" icon_name="Attachment_16.png" tooltip="anexar arquivo">
    </PDM_OBJECT>
    

     

    Note: the do_attach_doc function is from xx_attmnt_tab.htmpl.

    Note 2: the Attach_File item is inside "Activities" menu.

     

    When I try to click on Attach_File menu item, nothing happens and I get the following error: "ReferenceError: do_attach_doc is not defined". Already tried to execute AddFile without the do_attach_doc, without success. I tried with the "Attach Document" code from detail_cr in analyst/employee too, no success neither.

     

    Any ideas?

    hi,

    better way to move your function directly to detail_***.htmpl form,

    for simplify the distribution, you can create file and then include it to derived forms:

         xx_attmnt_include.htmpl:

    <PDM_IF 0>
    // not tested
    </PDM_IF>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="$CAisd/scripts/attmnt_lib.js?20151101"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="$CAisd/scripts/attmnt_upload.js?20151101"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function add_attmnt() {
      var add_file_src = "View=Upload+ShowFields=Yes+ShowImgStatus=Yes+ShowRepList=Yes+RepType=0+KEEP.POPUP_NAME=" + ahdframe.top.name + 
      "+KEEP.PARENT_DIV=" + ahdframe.window.frameElement.parentNode.id + "+KEEP.attmnt_parent=";
      add_file_src += ahdframe.argPersistentID;
      AddFile(0, 0, 0, add_file_src, 50);
    }
    </script>
    

     

         detail_xx.htmpl:

    note: put somewhere in <head> area beyond <script> tag

    <PDM_INCLUDE FILE=xx_attmnt_include.htmpl>
    

     

         menubar_xx.htmpl:

    <PDM_OBJECT>
    if ( (factory_new == "detail_cr.htmpl") || (factory_new == "detail_chg.htmpl") || (factory_new == "detail_in.htmpl") ) {
      <PDM_MACRO name=menuItemLocal label="Add attmnt" function="ahdframe.add_attmnt()" icon_name=new_attmnt_16.png tooltip="Add attmnt">
    }
    </PDM_OBJECT>
    

     

    I have limited menubar item with some contstraint to make it available only on active Request/Incident/Change forms.

    Hi cdtj

    Hi Diogo,

    it worked in my test env in SDM 12.7 CP2, as far as I know 14.1 uses new alogrithm if you on it,

    check browsers console and stdlog is there any errors?

     

    Regards,

    Timur

    Hi Timur,

     

    I checked browser console and it showed that "factory_new" was not defined. I tried to put another conditions, such like if ( factory == "cr" ) or PDM_IF "$args.type" == "R" but both was ignored - the menuItem was placed anyway.

     

    So I just removed the "if" condition and it worked!

     

    Thank you.

    Just one more little thing... do you know how to "focus" the Attachment tab automatically after sending the file? Is it possible? It would be useful if, when someone sends a file, he/she could see the file in attachments tab.

     

    * this would be useful in another situation too, but focusing another tab.
