How to delete all detail attachements/files contains in an Efficy Document where some of the files have revision?

Fri, 06 Jan 2023 09:34:39 +0000

Does anyone knows how to delete all files in a document with ServerJS when some of the files have revision ?

I tried the following code, but then I have an endless loop since several files have the same key but a different revision number !

dsFile = Efficy.getDetailDataSet(docuContext, ntFile);
dsFile.first();
while (!dsFile.eof) {
Efficy.deleteDetail(docuContext, ntFile, dsFile.fieldByName('K_FILE').asFloat);
}

PS : I remarked that the same code has been used in Efficy 2021 for the invoicing module (cf function deleteDetails in serverjs\invoicing\invoicing.js) ... So the issue I encountered may also be a standard issue

Disallow/block EXE files

For security reasons we would like to disallow uploading executable files in Efficy CRM. (exe, jar, etc...)
Is there an option already foreseen for this ?
If no what would be the most elegant way of doing so ?

Dear all,

For a customer we want to have a link in consult that opens file explorer on the UNC. With a file:// in the href of a link this gives an error in Chrome: Not allowed to load local resource:
This is an example of what I used:

Does anybody know of a way without ActiveX?

How to delete Attachments/FILE via SOAP

Mon, 25 Jan 2016 17:26:10 +0000

Hi there,

I'm trying to delete a file (attachment) via SOAP.

When executing the following SOAP request:

<efficy:api>
    <data id="0" operation="delete" entity="FILE" keys="123"/>
</efficy:api>

I get the following "answer":

<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
    <faultcode>Exception</faultcode>
    <faultstring>Invalid Entity for Delete</faultstring>
    <faultid/>
</SOAP-ENV:Fault>

I also tried entity="2", same effect. When logging in as the user i use to perform the SOAP request, i am able to delete the attachment without a problem. So, how can I delete a FILE entry?

Thanks in advance,
Stefan

UseLinkedFile is not working in Efficy 2014 r5308

Wed, 01 Apr 2015 14:44:11 +0000

Ik got an error message if I am trying upload a file link to Efficy.
* Efficy 2014 r5308

Error message:

Failed to connect

De syntaxis van de bestandsnaam, mapnaam of volumenaam is onjuist

I used this script to implement the functionality:

INSERT INTO [EFFSTDWINRIS].[ADMIN].[SYS_STORAGE]
([NAME],[TEXT]) VALUES
('UseLinkedFile','1' )

Can someone help me to fix this, or is it a bug?
