#844 - "Hooking" custom modules to SecuritySuite
I'm using SuiteCRM and their custom sales modules (i.e. quotes, contracts, invoices...) are not related to SecuritySuite. If I use the "Hookup Module" functionality to relate them (funny enough, it fails the first time and succeeds the 2nd attempt), the values in the "securitygroups_records" table seem to be reversed i.e. "securitygroup_id" field contains the related record id, the "record_id" field contains the security group id and the "module" field contains "SecurityGroups" instead of "Quotes" for example. Is this by design? I ask because if it is, how do you know which table that related record comes from?

Very interesting. Do you see this if you create a module in Module Builder, deploy, then hookup to SecuritySuite?

I will try and post back my findings.

Just created a custom module and hooked it up and looks like it's doing what it should: "securitygroup_id" contains the security group, "record_id" contains the record id of my custom module and the "module" field contains "Test1_Test1Module1". I checked the relationships in studio and it put "Security Groups" as the primary module and "Test module" for the related module (I checked and it's the same for accounts). For "Quotes", it put "Quotes" as primary and "Security Groups" as the related module.

So odd. Not sure why the Quotes one is all wonky. My guess is that those modules were hand created and not done in a way that mimics Module Builder. My suggestion for now would be too look at that custom SecurityGroup/Quote relationship in /custom/metadata and flip the values in that file so that it goes into the right spot. That would require a Repair Relationship afterwards.

What all files do you have to change to make this happen?

Figured it out. Not only did we had to change the lhs and rhs on the relationship, but also had to change the relationship_role_column_value value accordingly to point to the custom module name.

Manually changing it seems to have worked. Going forward, if I simply create the relationship myself in studio, do I need to do anything else or is that all there is to the "Hookup Module" functionality?

Creating the relationship in Studio to SecurityGroups just doesn't work. It fails miserably at it. The Hookup tool is meant specifically for that so that it creates the relationship correctly.

Ok good to know. You can close this off.
