RE: Custom Module Popup Picker fails

In case anyone comes across this, I was able to find that we needed a file inside of the custom module directory: /modules/ModuleB/metadata/popupdefs.php

Once that file is added, Sugar knows how to display the module for Search and Selects on Reports. Weird to me that it was not needed for the relate field, however. Either way, this is cleared up.

Here is our quick example for that popupdefs that got us working:

$module_name = 'ModuleB';
$object_name = 'MODULEB';
$popupMeta = array(
'moduleMain' => $module_name,
'varName' => $object_name,
'searchInputs'=> array(
0 => 'name',
),
'searchdefs' => array (
'name' => array (
'name' => 'name',
'width' => '100%',
),
),
'listviewdefs' => array (
'NAME' =>
array (
'width' => '100%',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_NAME',
'link' => true,
'default' => true,
'name' => 'name',
),
),
);
