Boru Module Creator

  • The usage should be pretty intuitive in terms of how it works. Outside of on caveat. The ModuleCreator does not Auto-Install the created module. It will create the module, and create a zip file that must be downloaded from the ‘list’ within the module, and then use that zip file to install the module in the Settings/Module Manager section of VTiger.
  • By default, a single related list is defined. If you wish to have no related lists, you can simply ‘X’ away that related list during creation.
  • At least 1 field must be checked for ‘ListView’, this column determines which fields will display in the default filter on list views. At least 1 field must be marked Mandatory and Identifier. This is the field that will be displayed when related to other modules and when selecting from the default VTiger Picker for adding records to other records.

Fields

  • Field Label – Field label/name
  • Type – Select the filed type(date/text/currency/etc..)
  • Mandatory – Check if this should be a mandatory field
  • Identifier – This is the field that will be displayed when related to other modules and when selecting from the default VTiger Picker for adding records to other records.
  • Listview – Check if field will be displayed in default listview.

Related Lists

  • You can specify the related list where the new module will show up. Say you want new module to show up on the “Accounts” – you would do “On Module” = This New Module AND “Show Module” = Accounts
  • Make sure you define the label for the related list.
  • Add/Select is optional.

Creating & Installing the New Module

  • Once the field labels/related lists are complete – hit “Create Module” and you will be redirected to the module list.
  • Click “Download” next to the newly created module and install the new module.
