Can I hide the Product Catalog And Quick Pick Product Catalog Dashlets from Opportunity creation right panel ?

 Hi.

The one option is a custom layout but is easy, following the next steps:

Create a package that copy one unique file into this path:
custom/modules/Opportunities/clients/base/layouts/create-preview/create-preview.php

The content is the next lines:
<?php
$viewdefs['Opportunities']['base']['layout']['create-preview'] = array();

Kind regards.

Hello Sanchez Jorge Luis,

thank you for the answer. I was hoping that a core settings was available to disable this without any custom code (because if my customer move ahead and decide to start using RLI, we have to remove this code).

So I will maybe "link" this extension to the usage of RLI.

But manny thanks,

Fred

I think it is not a problem, you can override this file with the original code. This code is in the following file: modules / Opportunities / clients / base / layouts / create-preview / create-preview.php

$viewdefs['Opportunities']['base']['layout']['create-preview'] = array(
    'components' => array(
        array(
            'view' => 'product-catalog',
            'context' => array(
                'module' => 'Quotes',
            ),
        ),
        array(
            'view' => 'product-quick-picks',
            'context' => array(
                'module' => 'Opportunities',
            ),
        ),
    ),
);

Kind regards

Sanchez Jorge Luis, good solution!

It would make for an even better solution if you could achieve the same outcome through the extension framework (custom/Extension/modules/<module>/Ext/clients/base/<layouts|views>/ etc etc.)

In Sugar every view/layout can be "merged" with your provided extensions, and it would make any changes more "upgrade safe".

Basically you could walk through the preview layout, and unset the specific views/layouts you do not wish to have (product-catalog and product-quick-picks), allowing future product additions to appear within the system.

If you need a (much more involved) example on how it fits together, I suggest picking up these examples https://github.com/esimonetti/SugarListViewSortByIndexedOnly and https://github.com/esimonetti/SugarDisableActivityStream compile the modules and look at the zipped outcome. Note that the SugarDisableActivityStream package is no longer applicable in today's Sugar versions, but it can be used as an example on how to achieve the exact same outcome for layouts via extensions.

Hope this helps

Thanks for your observation, I think it adds a lot of value to consider it like this, I will also add this note to my knowledge base.
