SecuritySuite - SuiteCRM and CE Teams

Unfortunately since I have no SugarCRM code knowledge, I'm clueless as to what I'm supposed to do. If you can post something in the next couple of days that would be greatly appreciated.

I can't do that within that time frame. I'm working around the clock right now. If you're familiar with PHP you should be able to get in there and do it. The starting point is learning how to do a before_save logic hook in SugarCRM: http://support.sugarcrm.com/02_Documentation/04_Sugar_Developer/Sugar_Developer_Guide_6.5/03_Module_Framework/Logic_Hooks/02_Module_Hooks/before_save

The hook is not the issue (already implemented Greg's solution and works fine). It's just the few lines of code to remove the child records' current security groups and then add the new user's security groups. Maybe there's an existing sugar php file that contains your code that already does this (or similar to it)?

Awesome! I can help then. Here's how to add a group (taken from AssignGroups.php in modules/SecurityGroups):

~~~~~~ require_once('modules/SecurityGroups/SecurityGroup.php'); $groupFocus = new SecurityGroup(); $security_modules = $groupFocus->getSecurityModules(); //sanity check if(in_array($bean->module_dir,array_keys($security_modules))) { //add each group in securitygroup_list to new record $rel_name = $groupFocus->getLinkName($bean->module_dir,"SecurityGroups");

            $bean->load_relationship($rel_name);
            foreach($_REQUEST['securitygroup_list'] as $group_id) {
                $bean->$rel_name->add($group_id);
            }
        }

~~~~~

Just take the parts that you need. Probably don't need the security_modules check.

Removing would be very similar:

$bean->$rel_name->remove($group_bean, $bean);

Or something similar. Exact syntax is in data/Relationships/M2MRelationship.php

Excellent, thanks for the info. I will post back my results.

It's likely because a "link" type field needs to be created for the related module via the vardefs. If you create this manually like it is done in the stock modules then it should work.

If I look at custom/modules/Accounts/Ext/Vardefs/vardefs.ext.php, I have the following snippet of code that refers to SecurityGroups:

$dictionary['Account']['fields']['SecurityGroups'] = array ( 'name' => 'SecurityGroups', 'type' => 'link', 'relationship' => 'securitygroups_accounts', 'module'=>'SecurityGroups', 'bean_name'=>'SecurityGroup', 'source'=>'non-db', 'vname'=>'LBL_SECURITYGROUPS', );

and in custom/modules/AOS_Invoices/Ext/Vardefs/vardefs.ext.php (using AOS_Invoices as an example from SuiteCRM), I have:

$dictionary["AOS_Invoices"]["fields"]["aos_invoices_securitygroups_1"] = array ( 'name' => 'aos_invoices_securitygroups_1', 'type' => 'link', 'relationship' => 'aos_invoices_securitygroups_1', 'source' => 'non-db', 'module' => 'SecurityGroups', 'bean_name' => 'SecurityGroup', 'vname' => 'LBL_AOS_INVOICES_SECURITYGROUPS_1_FROM_SECURITYGROUPS_TITLE', );

Anything else you can think of?

Are you using "aos_invoices_securitygroups_1'" when you call load_relationship()?

Yes I am but I had a bug somewhere else! Thanks for your help.

Whew! Had me nervous there. Have a great weekend!

Thanks you too
