Alphanumeric field gives bizarre error in JSON API request

Thu, 14 Oct 2021 18:22:26 +0000

when executing the following request

[{
        "@name": "Edit",
        "entity": "Docu",
        "commit": "true",
        "closecontext": "true",
        "@func": [{
                "@name": "update",
                "@data": {
                    "NAME": "Klein testje 2021",
                    "F_DIENST": 6,
                    "F_TYPE": 70,
                    "F_ONTVANGSTWIJZE": 0,
                    "F_NR_AANGETEKEND": "220309282357",
                    "MEMOFORMATTED": 0,
                    "MEMO": "",
                    "F_STATUS": 0
                }
            }
        ]
    }
]

we get this error :

"#error": {
"errorcode": "EConvertError",
"errorstring": "'' is not a valid date and time"
}

The field F_NR_AANGETEKEND is the problem.
It's an alphanumeric field with a length of 32.

values like "" or "123" or "0" etc are no problem.
But values like this give the conversion error.
Is this a bug or is there another way how we can force the API to see the value as a string ?

This happens on a Efficy (Build 11.2.19857.0 2019-12-07 12:02)

format settings difference between efficy and scheduleur

Thu, 26 Aug 2021 08:18:36 +0000

Hi all,

i'm in Efficy 11.2
I have a custom module using this code

var strDate = formatDateTime("yyyy/mm/dd hh:nn:ss", dateItemNomenclature)
dateItemNomenclature = standardStrToDateTime(strDate);

according the edn,

"/" : Displays the date separator character given by the
DateSeparator global variable.

so i suppose formatDateTime is using the one configured in the base.js DateSeparator variable (for efficy 11.2)

My problem is that when this code is called by efficy scheduler, it seems that formatDateTime() is using the separator from windows regional settings who in my case is different (- in place of /)

My "second" problem is that in both cases (Efficy Web and Efficy Scheduler) the function standardStrToDateTime() is using the "/" separator (i didn't know from where he get his config)

The resume is that i have two function, one using a different separator when called from efficy or from scheduler, and the second using the same separator watherver it is called from efficy or from scheduler.

So, i will try to see if we can change the regional settings of the server to bypass the problem, but i have some questions.

Is it different with newer version of Efficy ?
Can we force scheduleur to use another dateseparator settings?
From where the function standardStrToDateTime() is getting his settings ?

disableSecurity inefficient when called via node request

Wed, 03 Mar 2021 16:34:51 +0000

When some code called via a node request tries do disable the security,
it's INEFFICIENT ! (Efficy 11.2)
I implemented a minimum node file to demonstrate it, where I try to open an edit context on a record for which the user linked to the API key has no right:

function main() {
    Efficy.disableSecurity = true;
    try {
        try {
            var editHandle = Efficy.openEditContext(ntDocu, 828855);
            try {
                Response.setContent("I did open my record!");
                Response.setStatusCode(200); // HTTP_OK
            }
            finally {
                Efficy.closeContext(editHandle);
            }
        } catch (e) {
            Response.setStatusCode(400); // HTTP_BADREQUEST
            Response.setContent("Efficy.disableSecurity = " + Efficy.disableSecurity + " but...\n" + e.message);
        }
    }
    finally {
        Efficy.disableSecurity = false;
    }
};

And the response is :
This works as designed or did I miss something?
This is the same of each Efficy property?

For a customer, we will need to use json/api node.
Customer have actually an environnement with 2 "frontend" serveur behind a loadbalencer, and 1"webservice" serveur for soap call.

Should we use the same infrastrucure and make json/node api call to the webservice serveur to avoid session problem ?
Or is there something better to do ?

How can we do that ?
The idea is to call it from windows task scheduler, or from an external scheduling tools.
Is it possible to do it with command line ?

Transfer of linked entities on saving task

Mon, 14 Sep 2020 13:01:49 +0000

Hello,

I have a question on the transfer of linked entities on saving a task, for example. When editing a task that is linked to a mail, when linking that task to a company for example, the mail automatically gets that same link, the link is trasferred on save.

My client has a custom entity however, this link is not being transferred to the mail. Can this be configured or do i need to handle this manually in the workflow?

Thank you.

Input parameters for native sql

Wed, 20 May 2020 13:45:31 +0000

Hello,

We have a native sql query that accepts a single parameter. This field is a lookup (custom field).

Using the option that a user can modify the input parameter, is there a way that this input is a drop down field in the selection screen? At this time, the user needs to put the specific value (key or value).

Environment: 11.2

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

In the web.config sample, the file extention .txt is set to "not allowed"

            </fileExtensions>

I would like to know if there is a raison of that ?

Error "Unknown context provided for encoding" while merging

Tue, 17 Dec 2019 10:44:26 +0000

Hello,

A client using Efficy 11.2 has custom fields that are added to the merge screen when merging 2 contacts. The address fields are also among the fields.

Unfortunately, when merging a contact with a quote in the street (Rue De l'Hôpital) generates an error while constructing the page :

The standard definition of the field in GridColumns.txt (td.VALUE.Dupl) doesn't seem to be able to handle the quote, but i can't seem to find a solution for this.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Unable to launch custom page from workflow

Tue, 05 Nov 2019 13:13:22 +0000

Hello,

After an upgrade from 10SP2 to 11.2, i am experiencing issues with the workflow of a client.

Triggered by BeforeCommitCont, the following command was to be executed : UserSession.ExecuteCommand("displayCustomActions('{0}', '{1}', '{2}', '{3}');".format(entity, key, (addrChangeInfo) ? JSON.stringify(addrChangeInfo) : null, true)))

Since the upgrade, this doesn't seem to work. We are still able to use this functionality to trigger an alert, but launching a function defined in custom.js doesn't seem to work anymore.

This function is used to launch an custom page that shows possible links based on the addrChangeInfo parameter. There is quite a lot of functionality behind this to populate this parameter and also to determine if the pop-up should be showed. So the fastest way to resolve this would be to keep the current functionality (by making custom.js available again in the workflow?).

If that isn't possible, what scenario could be used to copy this behavior? I tried with storing the addrChangeInfo in the database and to launch the function in front-end, but i am unable to trigger this between BeforeCommit and AfterCommit.

Any ideas on how to solve this? Any other examples that you know of?
Let me know if you need more information.

Regards,
Ken

Error when using "Print Personalized Documents" : Operation aborted (print error : Filehelper error)

For a client using 11.2 (upgraded from 10SP2) i am encountering problems when using the "Print Personalized Documents" button under the campaign tools.

Almost immediately i get a "Operation aborted (print error : Filehelper error)" error. It seems everything goes fine but as soon as efficy tries to print there is an error.
For example, the button "Generate Documents" works fine seeing it doesn't print.

My question now is where could the origin for this problem be? Where can i check settings concerning printing?
Maybe there is something that needs to be reconfigured.

The only file that has been customized for this is ProcessRecords.js but i already checked this.

Any help is welcome.

Thank you,
Ken

ODBC Questionmarks on import

Thu, 10 Oct 2019 14:45:28 +0000

Hi all,

We're trying this with an 11.2 customer: Chinese characters in odbc datasynchro There is still text being replaced by question marks (?). Propably because of some Eastern European letters. Is there a way to get these right? We tried OEM, ANSI and 65001 as characterset in the schema.ini but to no avail.

Best regards,

is it possible to have cascading rights application like into the project for a custom entity.

Wed, 09 Oct 2019 12:03:30 +0000

I want to report the standard functionality of cascading security used into the projects to a custom entity. Is it possible ? And How ? Database, macros ?
If it's possible, can we industrialise it for some kinds of conditions.
For exemple I want to add rules without open security screen depending on externals status or role.

launch template from Publ or Prof Consult! Efficy 11.2

Wed, 09 Oct 2019 09:25:57 +0000

Hello,

I want to launch a template threw a consult commande From Publications Consult page, i've created this function to take the directly the template key in parameters:

const launchTemplateFromConsult = (template) => {
var extraParam = format('template=$0&Key={key}&{entity}= 
                {key}&copydetail={entity};{key};Comp;Cont,Proj;Oppo', template);
EditNewWithScript2('Docu', extraParam, 'serverscripts/Create', 
                'CreateInstantDoc');
};

My problem is that when the document is created the copy detail function does not work properly like (contacts or companies are not copied), i don't know if there is some thing missing

I've also add this 2 lines in the Create.js in the CreateInstantDoc function to copy the details that i need,

var Publ = Efficy.getMainDetail(DocuContext, ntPubl)
Efficy.copyDetails2(DocuContext, ntPubl, Publ, [ntComp, ntCont, ntProj, ntOppo], false, false)

but the function steel not working.

Could you help me please?

Hello,

I'd like to to know if it's possible to add an element in LK_REPO_SERVER and configure how the option is working in efficy.

I've added the option in the lookup (no problem there of course) but I don't see how the value is used for the execution of the reports.

Thanks

Word Template did not fill fields from relation table of a new created entity

Wed, 25 Sep 2019 09:11:24 +0000

Hi all,

I created 2 (Contracts and Brands) new entities in Efficy, now I have a problem with a Word template.

On the template I need information from "Contracts" and also from "Brands". I added all needed fields to the template, but when running the template i.e. from the "Contracts" entity, the related information from "Brands" are empty.
The same when I run the template from "Brands", then "Contracts" informations are not filled.

So it seems that I missed something but could not find what, any hint would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance and best regards

Soap error when using SSO

Tue, 24 Sep 2019 08:17:14 +0000

Hello,

We recently upgraded an on premise client from efficy 10SP2 to 11.2.
They were using sso to connect but as of the upgrade this doesn't work anymore. See error message below :

The sidebar should be correctly configured. The option 'use current windows user' is checked but still we get the error. It worked fine in the previous version.

Does anyone have an idea where the problem could be? We are using the same server.
Let me know if more information is needed.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,

Ken

Use of mobile app without external Efficy access

Fri, 13 Sep 2019 08:06:36 +0000

A customer with an On-Premise Efficy installation (11.2) has no public URL available. Users can only log in with a VPN connection. Is there a way to let them use the mobile app without a VPN connection (for example by making some adjustments in their firewall?)

Missing the filebase in the link sent by mail for the forgot password

Wed, 11 Sep 2019 15:19:27 +0000

Hi,

When I try "I forgot my password" on prod in 11.2, (not the extranet)
I receive this mails;

So if I take the link and I try with the filebase "https://adeb.efficy.com" before. It works.

I tried to go in the designer to change the servicy > sys_setting > common

"servicy": {
    "createLogFile": "~", 
    "sameServerAsEfficy": "~", 
    "fileMaxSize": "~", 
    "fileMinSize": "20000", 
    "fileUrl": "~", 
    "fileRepository": "~", 
    "fileTempUpload": "~", 
    "url": "https:\/\/adeb.efficy.com", 
    "userPasswordUrl": "~", 
    "customerForExtranet": "~"
  }

If I try :

"userPasswordUrl": "https:\/\/adeb.efficy.com",

It gives me 404 when I click on "I forgot MY password" because it miss the /pwd/ in the path.

Well if someone has an idea or some other things to try?

Error when connecting after new install (Invalid object name 'EFFICY_CRM.SYS_DATABASE')

Wed, 21 Aug 2019 12:41:55 +0000

Hi All,

I've made a fresh install of Efficy 11.2.17611 on a new server, and have this error when trying to connect to efficy (or conficy)

Message: Invalid object name 'EFFICY_CRM.SYS_DATABASE' select
SYS_DATABASE.DBVERSION from EFFICY_CRM.SYS_DATABASE SYS_DATABASE

I precise that the DB is already existing on an other server, and is "OK", i can connect and use it from my local install.
I've compared the alias and customer profil on my local computer, and the one on the server, i didn't see any difference.

The error is the "EFFICY_CRM.SYS_DATABASE" EFFICYCRM is the name of the DB and the name of the alias, not the name of the DB owner, ... it must be AEFFICY.

I don't see what is wrong in my config.

What are the rules for ACCOUNT_REF ? (and how can we change them ?)

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 11:56:55 +0000

Hello Efficy Team,

For a new customer, with a raw installation, we put the field "ACCOUNT_REF" in the form. We noticed that this field is pre-filed automatically.

How ? What is the rule here ?
How can we change that ?
How can we disable the automation ?

I saw nothing in the documentation.

export query to excel 11.2

Thu, 01 Aug 2019 11:17:12 +0000

Hello,

I have a client who was in 10.2 and now goes to 11.2.
The problem I have is that when he wants to export a query to Excel, it fails because there are too many columns and so the server tells that the string is too big. But in 10.2 the client has never had any problems.
I looked at the structure of the two standards and actually it doesn't work the same way. I tried to add to the custom the same functioning as in the standard but it doesn't work. It doesn't take into account my changes... Does anyone have any ideas?

Which file type are compressed in files.stream ?

Wed, 10 Jul 2019 06:16:04 +0000

Hi,

I would like to know if the standard file uploading is using Efficy.smartCompressEx(stream, fileName)
if yes, we can see in edn that

If a Filename is specified, SmartCompressEx checks if it is necessary
to compress it (depending on the file extension).

I would like to know especially if pdf file are compressed or not, but it can be interesting to have the entire rules of what is compressed ? and what is not compressed.

regards.

Error 'Unknown EntityView ""' when using DataSynchro (32- or 64-bits) for Efficy 11.2

Mon, 08 Jul 2019 08:45:46 +0000

Hi,

a customer is using the DataSynchro to import records.
In Efficy 10SP2+ it did run without any problems, but they are now migrated to Efficy 11.2 and when they now use the DataSynchro to create a new import and want to select the tables they get the error 'Unknow EntityView ""'.

We didn't change anything to the structure.
How can we find out on which EntityView it's about?

Best regards,
Jeroen

Override a function from Validate.js in Efficy 11.2

Thu, 04 Jul 2019 18:30:10 +0000

Hi,

for a customer I need to adjust the function isValidDate.
I've tried several ways to override it:

copy Validate.js in the folder scripts in the custom (isn't working)
Put the function in custom.js (isn't working)
Put the function in js/main/edit.js (isn't working)

Every time the function in Validate.js is used.

Is there a way how we can override this function?

Other date format usage in Efficy based on the role of the user in Efficy 11.2

Tue, 25 Jun 2019 13:31:20 +0000

Hi,

is it possible to use a different date format within Efficy based on the role of the user?
I'm asking this, because a customer wants to be able to have 1 Efficy environment but different date formats to use in Efficy.
For instance:
for European countries the European date format and for the American countries the American date format.

Is this possible?

Best regards,
Jeroen

After reloading the page the correct userrole is shown:

RunScript to retrieve dynamically the Edit Form of an entity

Thu, 20 Jun 2019 07:22:09 +0000

Hi,

for a customer we had in Efficy 10SP2+ in the EditSectionsForm the retrieval of the Edit form of an entity (see below for an example).

EditSectionsForm.Dona {[<%RunScript(getEntityEditForm)%>]}

We are now upgrading the customer to Efficy 11.2 and now the forms didn't retrieved anymore. We had to rewrite it to have the retrieval of the Edit form in TabContentFields (see below for an example).

TabContentFields.Dona {[
<div class="content tabs-content-item" id="tab-fields">
<%Macro('PMUEditSection')%>
<%GetFormSections(form="%%Evaluate(|<%RunScript(getEntityEditForm)%>|)", fielddefs="FormFieldsEdit", noformbounds=T)%>
</div>
]}

I wonder why it isn't working anymore to retrieve the Edit form in EditSectionsForm. Could anyone explain this?

Best regards,
Jeroen
