Anyone figured out a way to expand the width of this control? It cuts off our part numbers and descriptions.

Is there an ability to do one to many? I’m thinking of a Lot that gets issued to multiple Jobs.

It visualizes whatever the dataset is that comes back from the BO, but yes–I’ve seen it visualize 3 invoices to 1 order for instance. That’s automatic, though you should probably increase the maxNumOfCards to suit your needs.

Create an event that’s triggered off of the OnCreate behavior and set the width property with a property-set widget.

Scheduler

Appendix

DataViews

Create a dataview to hold the column bindings and to bind your grid to.

Slider

Create a slider or some other method for data input. All fields in the slider are bound to the “TransView” variation of the previous dataview. For instance, cdv_Calander.StartDate = TransView.StartDate on the slider. Don’t bind them to the cdv_Calander or it will create records upon opening.

Don’t forget to add some buttons. (Delete is unnecessary if you make the Scheduler editable)

Events

ce_calendar_onDoubleClick
Double click event to add a new item to the calendar. This initializes the TransView fields and then opens the slider.

I had to do some JS magic to get the fields to do what I wanted.
Here are each of the row-update items:

EpBinding: TransView.StartDate
Expression: new Date(new Date("%startDateTime%").setHours(0,0,0,0))
Notes: %startDateTime% is a built-in variable that will get the start date and time from the scheduler when you double click. For instance, if you click 10/14/2023 @ 1:00AM, the variable will yield 2023-10-14T01:00:00Z (24 hour time). The setHours(0,0,0,0) is to zero out the time and only provide the date since I’m setting the time in a different control.

EpBinding: TransView.StartTime
Expression: (new Date("%startDateTime%").getHours() * 3600) + (new Date("%startDateTime%").getMinutes() * 60) + (new Date("%startDateTime%").getSeconds())
Notes: This is converting the hours, minutes, and seconds into a seconds from midnight value.

EpBinding: TransView.EndDate
Expression: new Date(new Date("%endDateTime%").setHours(0,0,0,0))
Notes: %endDateTime% is a built-in variable that will get the end date and time in 30 minute increments from the scheduler when you double click. For instance, if you click 10/14/2023 @ 1:00AM, the variable will yield 2023-10-14T01:30:00Z (24 hour time). The setHours(0,0,0,0) is to zero out the time and only provide the date since I’m setting the time in a different control.

EpBinding: TransView.EndTime
Expression: (new Date("%endDateTime%").getHours() * 3600) + (new Date("%endDateTime%").getMinutes() * 60) + (new Date("%endDateTime%").getSeconds())
Notes: This is converting the hours, minutes, and seconds into a seconds from midnight value.

EpBinding: TransView.AllDay
Value: false

EpBinding: TransView.Description
Value: ""

EpBinding: TransView.ExceptionLabel
Value: "Say Words"

EpBinding: TransView.StartDateTime
Value: "%startDateTime%"
Notes: This is my unique ID for column binding. Again, might be better to use a GUID, but I just followed what Epicor did and it seems to work fine.

ce_SliderOK
This event adds the new records to the dataview and subsequently adds the visual to the calendar.

Again, some more JS magic for the row-update.

EpBinding: TransView.StartDate
Expression: new Date((new Date("{TransView.StartDate}")).setSeconds((new Date("{TransView.StartDate}")).getSeconds() + {TransView.StartTime}));
Notes: This is adding the seconds from the time control to the date control.

EpBinding: TransView.EndDate
Expression: new Date((new Date("{TransView.EndDate}")).setSeconds((new Date("{TransView.EndDate}")).getSeconds() + {TransView.EndTime}));
Notes: This is adding the seconds from the time control to the date control.

row-add
DataView: cdv_Calander (or whatever yours is called)
Values:

{
	"ExceptionLabel": "{TransView.ExceptionLabel}",
	"ModifiedDay": "{TransView.StartDateTime}",
	"AllDay": "{TransView.AllDay}",
	"Description": "{TransView.Description}",
	"StartDate": "{TransView.StartDate}",
	"EndDate": "{TransView.EndDate}"
}

ce_SliderCancel
Just closes the slider without modifying data.

ce_SliderDelete
Again, this is unnecessary with the editable button, but here it is for demonstration purposes.
