User Module not available in SugarBPM / Process Definitions?

Hi,

im really shocked 'cause it seems, that the user module is not available in SugarBPM. My idea was: Sending a Mail to the user where a specific field value is set or changed.

For example:

If the user field is "active" an email will be send to this user. How could that be possible without using the SugarBPM? Can I activate the module for process definitions?

Kind regards from Berlin

  • Hi ,

    As far as I can tell with a quick look at the code, that module list consists of:

    • Studio-enabled modules
    • Modules that are not studio-enabled but have a vardef exception defined

    The Users module is in Studio, so I'm not certain why it fails the first check. I tried to enable it with the vardef exception, but that didn't work. I tested the exception with another module (BusinessCenters) and confirmed it worked there. For BusinessCenters, I created a PHP file in:

    ./custom/Extension/modules/BusinessCenters/Ext/Vardefs/

    The file had the following contents:

    <?php
    
    $dictionary['BusinessCenter']['processes']['enabled'] = true;

    After a quick repair, the module showed in the list when creating a process definition. I followed the same method for Users, but it didn't work. I'm assuming there may be something unique (or hard-coded) preventing the Users module from showing in SugarBPM. 

    Maybe someone else has been successful or can pick up with what I've done to find a way to expose it for BPM definitions.

  • Hi Chris,

    thank you for your feedback.
    This is absolutely exciting and I have opened a case with SugarCRM because I cannot accept that both the Users module and the Employees module cannot be activated. I am now looking for the code that is preventing these modules from being included in the process definition selection list and would appreciate any advice on what this might be. I have also tried implementing it via vardef, same behavior for me as well.

    Kind regards
