Release to Network Users
Posted: 27 Sep 06 8:38 AM

fiogf49gjkf0d Hi ,
(SLX 6.2.4)
I have a new plugin to go out but it should only be released to Network users. I see that when releasing the plugin I can click the drop down and choose network users and select them all, but then I'd have to remember to go back in when creating a new user and re-release this plugin to them (and i'm quite forgetful). I was thinking about creating a team and a new template that would add network users to this team, but It just seems to me like this is something that would come up often and thus be built in. Anyone come across this before? The answer is probably right in front of me, i just don't see it.
Thanks in advance,
Zeph |

fiogf49gjkf0d Honestly, in all of my customizations, I've never had a need to segregate them between networked and remote users. If you took a poll of BP's you'd probably find that comes up rarely, if at all.
You could always release it to everyone but build in some "if remote don't open" check through code that is less maintenance than the team approach. The only downside is the fact that the bundle is applied on remote databases so all of the backend stuff is there. If that's too much of a hassle then your best bet is the team approach. It's pretty much guaranteed to last for a while plus I don't think anything like this is even on Sage's radar for the next release. Waiting for something like this to be built-in could take years.

fiogf49gjkf0d I've solved this problem with some Account Tabs testing if I'm a network or a Remote opening it.
Sub AXFormChange(Sender)
''----------------------------
'' TEST: AM I REMOTE?
dim dbType,objrs2
if not isnull(getfield("DBTYPE","SYSTEMINFO","systeminfoid='PRIMARY'")) then
dbtype = getfield("DBTYPE","SYSTEMINFO","systeminfoid='PRIMARY'")
else
dbtype = ""
end if
if dbtype = 2 then
'OK, I'm a Remote
end if
''----------------------------
Obviously, if you're a remote you cannot make the tab disappear.
Or maybe it's possible?

fiogf49gjkf0d Thx for the reply's.
I might keep it simple with the Team method. I had put a new button on the toolbar for sending faxes using a third party utility but the utility resides on the server. When sending the fax, the file to be faxed has to be directly copied to a directory on the server so I need to disable the button if the user couldn't upload. I'm not familiar with the code that fires when the toolbar is created so it might be wise not too mess with it.

fiogf49gjkf0d There's a way to show and hide Navbars and menu items using secure functions but it involves a bit of hacking until you get to v7, which includes it's own secured function manager. If you're willing to do the work a decent starting point would be here: http://www.saleslogix-guru.com/more-global-function-tricks.html
This would give you the ability to hide the toolbar button for remote users but turn it on for network users, in essence completely opposite to how the sync toolbar button appears on a remote. It's worth looking into if you want to make your customization robust but KISS is always the best course of action. |
