Implementing a Centric CRM Module
Adding a module to Centric CRM involves several items depending on the requirements and integration the module has with the rest of the system.
If a new module is being added, start with skeleton code of the Action Class and JSPs, configure the Centric CRM framework, then iteratively add functionality.
Adding or updating a module includes the following steps:
- Determine the framework model that best fits the immediate and anticipated development
- Code the module action class
- Code the JSPs
- Add the module Action Class details and JSPs to cfs-config.xml; now Centric CRM will know how to map URL requests to Action Classes and JSPs
- Add a Main Menu item to cfs-modules.xml, listing ALL action names that have access to the module; now Centric CRM will show the menu item in the Main Menu for all actions specified
- Insert the module permissions and preferences into the [permission_category] and [permission] tables; now the module will be recognized for permissions and configuration in Centric CRM
- Create install and upgrade scripts
