extension for project type class.

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have a requirement where extension have to be created for project type class.

Two different extensions for two different project types one in each.

Is it possible to do so?

I tried creating extension from setup>system setup>configuration>extension definition>new.

extended class name: project type.

It gave me an error:

"A extension definition already exists for this class name. Modify the existing definition rather than creating a new one."

Can anyone pls help me with this.

Any inputs would be appreciated.!!

Thanks,

Shikha.

Hi Shikha

You are getting an error because extension definition is already created in your system. You can open the same extension, go to attributes and start creating new fields.

Plz open and look for Extended Class Name:Project Type in all your extension definitions.

Hi Mudit,

Thanks for your reply!!..

Your reply was indeed helpful.

My answer is more related to page customization. I want to customize my Project type page.

Suppose i have 2 extensions Ext1 & Ext2 under class Project Type and 2 project Types PType1 & PType2,

ONLY Ext1 should be visible in PType1.

In PType2, ONLY Ext2 shoulb be visible.

If you can help me with the process how to proceed about with setup->pagecustomization->new->project type.

Thanks,

Shikha

Hi Shikha

1. Create Ext1 & Ext2 in extension definition

2. Go to page customization.create a new one for project type giving ui id = projects.projecttype.ui.buyside.default

3. Create page customization 1 with

field ID:Ext1

Property: Hidden

Dimension Field:DOC_TYPE

Dimension Field Type: : Object Reference

Class Name: Project Type

Dimension Value: PType2

4. Do the same for Ext2

Hi Mudit,

I have followed same steps as described above.

For "Project" this page customization is working absolutely fine.

But for "Project Type" the chnges are not being reflected.

What should be given in the value of "Dimension Field"? "DOC_TYPE"?

Any Inputs would be really helpful.!

Thanks,

Shikha.
