Hola Óscar del Río,

Te contesto en inglés, así el resto de la comunidad puede entender mejor la respuesta.

I would recommend you doing this through an after_ui_frame LogicHook triggered on the module you want to make the customization.

The code of the LogicHook would be like the following:

class LoadUserInEditView {

   function loadUserRolesInEditView( $bean, $event, $arguments ) {

       if( !$bean ) {
         return;
       }

       global $current_user;

       $department = $current_user->department;

       $departmentHtml = '<input type="hidden" style="display: none" id="user_department">' . $department . '</input>';

       echo $departmentHtml;

   }

}

This would set in the DOM a hidden input element which will store the department of the current user.

Then in your javascript:

document.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', function() {
   showHidePanelContacts();

   var department = $('#user_department').html();

   if( department !== 'my_desired_department' ) {
      $('#field_to_hide').hide();
   } 
   
});

Espero que te sirva. Cualquier duda me dices!

Saludos/Regards,

David.

Hello Óscar del Río,

As Francesca Shiekh mentioned above, if you can work with Roles, then you should be able to set this field hidden using the field level permissions.

So, you should add all the users that DON'T have the Department = "Value1" to a role. Within that role, access to the Contacts fields ( Role settings  ) and set your field to None. That would hide this field for all the users on this role while all other users ( Department = "Value1" ) would be able to see it.

I hope it helps but please let me know if you have any questions.

Bona nit, Francesc del Moral. :-)

Both you and Francesca Shiekh suggested that Óscar del Río could use Roles in order to achieve his needs. He said in one of his answers that he is using SugarCRM Community Edition. Maybe I'm wrong but I think that he won't be able to do what you say under CE. Is that right?

Thank you!

Hi Jaume Albaigès,

Óscar del Río is right, in Community Edition you can't do what Francesc del Moral and Francesca Shiekh say because you don't have the field level permissions in roles within the modules. In this edition you can only give or deny access, remove, edit, export, import, list, massive update and show permissions to the modules and records of those modules.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

David.

Hi all,

Note that Francesca Shiekh and myself wrote our answers before the Community Edition was mentioned so I guess we both thought Óscar del Río was using one of the Sugar licensed editions.

Thanks David López for sharing the options available within the Community Edition regarding Roles settings.

I am glad to see that the initial issue has been solved.

Yes, you're right, Francesc del Moral. I read the comments top-down and didn't notice that yours were previous.

thx!
