I just want to override Lead dashlet in upgrade safe manner. Can anybody help me to do thatā¦
Hi there,
You can use the custom directory to add custom functionality to the Leads module.
Thanks,
Will.
i tried the same , but it gives the error āFatal error: Cannot redeclare class MyLeadsDashlet in /path/to/core/file/modules/Leads/Dashlets/MyLeadsDashlet/MyLeadsDashlet.phpā
Use http://www.sugarforge.org/frs/?group_id=1315 this is a dashboard manager compatible with suite crm 
I tried installing this and received an error.

Database failure. Please refer to sugarcrm.log for details.
what version of suite crm are you using?
i have used the same with suite crm 7.0.2 and it is working perfect
Try to extend the class not just redeclaire it in the custom folder like below
//require_once('path/to/MyLeadsDashlet.php');
class MyCustomMyLeadsDashlet extends MyLeadsDashlet {
//overide the methods/functions in here
}

thanks for your reply Andy. Can you please explain me more clearly.
safwanbe: Its not easy to explain more clearly, you really need to know what your doing with PHP to be able to develop a custom dashlet! Whats you programming expariance level?

its been more than 3 year i am working in php ā¦
Ok take a look at this link: https://www.atcoresystems.com/blog/introduction-to-creating-sugarcrm-dashlets
if your an experianced pho developer then that should help a lot.
@andy : actually what i want to do is instead of listing only the leads of the logged in user it has to list his subordinates also. in the sense āMy Leadsā should list all the leads of logged in user plus all the leads of his subordinates.
So how has the relationship between the user and the subordinates been setup?

Looked into this for you, thereās a fair amount of work involved in that. You would basically have to create a complete new dashlet from scratch.
To get you started create:
custom/modules/Leads/Dashlets/MyCustomLeadsDashlet/MyCustomLeadsDashlet.data.php
<?php
global $current_user;
$dashletData['MyCustomLeadsDashlet']['searchFields'] = array('date_entered' => array('default' => ''),
'title' => array('default' => ''),
'primary_address_country' => array('default' => ''),
//'status' => array('default' => array('New', 'Assigned', 'In Process')),
'assigned_user_id' => array('type' => 'assigned_user_name',
'label' => 'LBL_ASSIGNED_TO',
'default' => $current_user->name));
$dashletData['MyCustomLeadsDashlet']['columns'] = array('name' => array('width' => '30',
'label' => 'LBL_NAME',
'link' => true,
'default' => true,
'related_fields' => array('first_name', 'last_name', 'salutation')),
'title' => array('width' => '20',
'label' => 'LBL_TITLE',
'default' => true),
'lead_source' => array('width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_LEAD_SOURCE'),
'status' => array('width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_STATUS'),
'phone_work' => array('width' => '20',
'label' => 'LBL_OFFICE_PHONE',
'default' => true),
'email1' => array('width' => '30',
'label' => 'LBL_EMAIL_ADDRESS',
'sortable' => false,
'customCode' => '{$EMAIL1_LINK}{$EMAIL1}</a>',
'default' => true),
'account_name' => array('width' => '40',
'label' => 'LBL_ACCOUNT_NAME'),
'phone_home' => array('width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_HOME_PHONE'),
'phone_mobile' => array('width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_MOBILE_PHONE'),
'phone_other' => array('width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_OTHER_PHONE'),
'date_entered' => array('width' => '15',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_DATE_ENTERED'),
'date_modified' => array('width' => '15',
'label' => 'LBL_DATE_MODIFIED'),
'created_by' => array('width' => '8',
'label' => 'LBL_CREATED'),
'assigned_user_name' => array('width' => '8',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_ASSIGNED_USER'),
);
?>
custom/modules/Leads/Dashlets/MyCustomLeadsDashlet/MyCustomLeadsDashlet.meta.php
<?php
$dashletMeta['MyCustomLeadsDashlet'] = array('module' => 'Leads',
'title' => translate('LBL_CUSTOM_LIST_MY_LEADS', 'Leads'),
'description' => 'A customizable view into Leads',
'category' => 'Module Views');
custom/modules/Leads/Dashlets/MyCustomLeadsDashlet/MyCustomLeadsDashlet.php
require_once('include/Dashlets/DashletGeneric.php');
class MyCustomLeadsDashlet extends DashletGeneric {
function MyCustomLeadsDashlet($id, $def = null) {
global $current_user, $app_strings;
require('custom/modules/Leads/Dashlets/MyCustomLeadsDashlet/MyCustomLeadsDashlet.data.php');
parent::DashletGeneric($id, $def);
if(empty($def['title'])) $this->title = translate('LBL_CUSTOM_LIST_MY_LEADS', 'Leads');
$this->searchFields = $dashletData['MyCustomLeadsDashlet']['searchFields'];
$this->columns = $dashletData['MyCustomLeadsDashlet']['columns'];
$this->seedBean = new Lead();
}
}
custom/modules/Leads/language/en_us.lang.php
<?php
// created: 2014-03-24 12:48:15
$mod_strings = array (
'LBL_CUSTOM_LIST_MY_LEADS' => 'Custom Leads',
);
Do a quick reapir and rebuild and you will see the Custom leads dashlet appear in the add dashlet panel. Now its up to you to edit the files to do what your asking.
