Comments about DNN integration

First, take a step back and think about the SplendidCRM modules that would be created in DNN. You would effectively create over 100 SplendidCRM related modules (which is an Edit, Detail and List DNN module for every SplendidCRM module). Is that acceptable? Maybe it would be better to expect a full installation of DNN and SplendidCRM with limited module sharing.

Second, you would have to determine whether you wanted to go with the SplendidCRM ACL rules or the DNN ACL rules.

Third, you would have to decide how to handle the multi-portal issues. SplendidCRM was designed to require separate databases for each instance. It is not possible to have multiple SplendidCRM portals on a single database.

Fourth, from a license perspective, you would have to release under the SugarCRM Public License and you would have to ship the project with the SQL source code encrypted just as we do with our SplendidCRM Installation application.

There are some shortcuts that you could take.
1. You could require that all DNN portals share the same SplendidCRM instance.
2. You could allow both DNN and SplendidCRM ACL rules to apply at their respective levels.

This is part of a conversation started to spearhead an effort to integrate DNN and SplendidCRM. Paul and I will make our best to move this forward, but community interest is the key ingredient. So please participate and make your voice be heard!

I don't think that building hundreds of dnn modules is needed, nor do I think that one needs to manage any configuration aspect of the crm app in dnn

I do believe though that a small set of DNN modules would be very handy, e.g. things like

- Issue / Task / support forms module
- user synchronization module
- project list per customer

etc..

Basically one would propably need a way to give customers access to a subset of the CRM data, i.e. customer related data, to let a customer monitor the progress on a specific project.

User synchronization could be important too, e.g. if one wants every new registered dnn user to become a lead in the CRM.

I could also think of working with the new authentication providers introduced in 4.6.0 to realize a SSO solution with the CRM app.

We could think of working with you guys or even donating modules to the project if there is interest. For the moment we started evaluating SplendidCRM for our own business purposes.

I would only need to implement a couple of the features of Splendid CRM for my purpose. I only need to work with leads (imports), customers, and email campaigns as I resell items. I have installed Splendid CRM and I'm now in the process of try to figure out the relationships for these areas and recode them for DNN.

Has anyone already done this?

Thanks

I am also interested in DNN integration. Has there been any movement on this in the past year since the forum was created?

thanks
Nick
