Showing task date and time in the activity and history subpanels

Asaf Army

Hello developers,

i noticed that the calls and meetings in the Activity and History subpanels are showing Date and time,

but the Tasks are shown without the time (only date).

how can i display the time of the Tasks in the activity and history subpanels?

task.png

I'm familiar with SugarCRM coding.

searched inside Modules/Tasks/metadata/subpanels/ForActivities.php but couldn't find anything. not even in the vardefs file...

Using CE 6.5.13 version.

    Hi, Doesn't anyone know how to add the time to the 'start_date' of tasks in the activity subpanel??

    Its suppose to be basic coding because the problem occurs in the basic install of sugarcrm CE....

    Other 'start_date' , like calls and meetings, does show it...

    we cannot use the task module otherwise, we really need it...

    anyone???

    My initial guess is that it's using the wrong data type field.

    Should be Data Type: Datetime but yours could be setup just as Date

    Hello Asaf,

    I debugged and found that it can be achieved but it's an un-upgradesafe change. In Task.php there is a function formatStartAndDueDates

    Change

    (A) $today = $timedate->nowDbDate(); TO $today = $timedate->nowDb();

    (B) $task_fields['DATE_DUE'] = $timedate->to_display_date($dbtime); TO $task_fields['DATE_DUE'] = $timedate->to_display_date_time($dbtime);

    (C) $dd = $timedate->to_db_date($date_due, false); TO $dd = $timedate->to_db($date_due, false);

    Hope this will help.

    Thanks & Regards,

    i have been coding sugarcrm for 5 years and would never think of such solution.

    Thank you so much!!
