Getting Account ID from Open Source version
Posted: 13 May 08 11:08 AM

Hey Everyone,

I have worked with older versions of SplendidCRM but the newer open source 2.0 version has been precompiled.

I need to to pull out the Account ID  to display it on /Accounts/EditView.ascx  would anyone be able to suggest how I can get this ID field since it's been boggling my mind!

I tried to request.query the ID from the URL but it won't work since the pages are precompiled and I don't know what I am trying to request.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Daz

Please provide more information on how you want to display the ID.  Just displaying a GUID on a page seems to have little usefullness to the CRM user.  You can customize the EditView in the admin area to display the ID as raw text.

Thanks for that Support! I just need the ID since I am doing a custom popup window to create a ratings tally for a client that will
ask a series of questions to tally thier Ratings result. Then I will be putting it into the database outside of the system but will be
using the AccountID to know where to put my ratings results in the Accounts Table.

I managed to pull the ID in Accounts by using <%=Page.Request.QueryString["ID"]%>

Thanks heaps, it's such a great product. I have implemented it now 5 times for different companies and they are very happy.

I have another quick question. I have added some custom fields via the admin area but I am wondering what happens
when I push the link "Recompile". I am assuming that by pushing  "Rebuild Audit" will do an audit of the Accounts_CSTM
and update it in the Accounts_CSTM_Audit table but am unsure what will be the result when I click the Recompile link.

Regards,

Daz

The Recompile link just recomplies the SQL views.  If you manually added a field to any of the CSTM tables, that new field would not be reflected in any of the existing views, until the views are recompiled.  This is not an issue when you use the admin interface as we do this for you.
