SLX v7.x Sales Process Step Action - Link to URL
Posted: 17 Sep 07 12:37 PM

How can I add a step that launches an external URL ? Our business area wants to add a step in a sales process that launches IE and loads a specific URL. It doesn't look like there's a direct Action step to to this. Any ideas ? |

But you could use a Script action, and from the Script launch the URL:
Application.BasicFunction.WebOpen myURL
This makes it even more flexible say if you have to pass parameters based on the User or the Opportunity... |

Thanks, this worked. Now I need to figure out how to suppress the "Active Script xxx executed" message box that appears when clicking on the Sales Process hyperlink - it's forcing the IE page to the background. If I call the script from a menu it loads without a message box appearing. Any ideas ? |

Yes.
Open the Sales Process form, then expand the Included Scripts. Open the Sales Process script that is included and search for that Message Box. If you only want it suppressed for the URL, you may want to setup a global variable just before invoking the URL, and then once youy find the message box check for the global, if you find it, supress the message and clear the global. |
