SuiteCRM Timeline (Insights Button) and Invoices not showing

Invoices don’t appear in the timeline for a contact. Is this expected? Thanks.

What are you trying to do in contact module? Are you uploading invoice in it?

the timeline shows items associated with the Contact. I don’t see invoices and thought it would be a good addition. Here is an example of what I was hoping to see. Maybe I’m missing something so I wanted to ask.

Hello Paul,

it seems, as if there is a limited amount of data record types that are displayed in the timeline.
Usually it’s more related to activities / communication.

Bugs, Cases etc. don’t appear in the timeline as well, whereas cases could be part of the communication.

I guess at the end there are multiple options:

  1. Custom coding - you’d simply add your logic there
  2. Propose your requirement as a sugestion (a better version: Have a config panel where it’s possible to configure, which module is visible in which others module timeline - similar to the subpanels in the studio)
  3. Create a workflow: Everytime you create an invoice, create a note for that contact as well with the subject “Invoice blah blah” - then you’ll see the note in the timeline

Thank you so much for those ideas.
