[6.0] Lots of extra-addons broken after (2010-05-13) major CRM changes

[Borja López Soilán (NeoPolus)]

Lots of addons got broken after the last major CRM changes (Bug detected on 6.0 revno 3485).

On 2010-03-13, some major changes on the crm where merged into the trunk addons branch (revno 3429 revid:<email address hidden> - http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openerp/openobject-addons/trunk/revision/3429).

One of those changes was removing the 'crm.case' openobject. That means that a lot of modules that had references (like many2one references) to this object will now fail.

This is a list of some of the broken modules that will no longer work on the trunk version:

    Module => Object (Field)

    cci_mission => cci_missions_embassy_folder (crm_case_id)
    dm_lead => dm_workitem (case_id), dm_campaign_document (case_id), dm_event_case (case_id)
    event => event_registration (case_id)
    hr_interview => hr_interview (crm_case_id)
    project_crm => project_task (case_id)
    zarafa => email (crm_case)

Also, any other module depending on those ones, will fail too.

My questions are:
  - What will happen with those modules? Is somebody working to fix them?
  - How can we adapt any of them to be compatible with the new CRM? (we use the hr_inverview)

Hello Borja,
Thanks for pointing out the crm.case references.
There are major improvement and fixes going on for this changes,
modules in trunk-addons are completely fixed for the changes,
(event is fixed in branch lp:~openerp-dev/openobject-addons/rpa-dev-addons2 for this changes and will be available in trunk-addons soon)
modules of extra-addons are in progress to change.
You can refer to proper case model instead of crm.case,
For hr_interview, the crm_case_id field should be removed as is not referenced in any code,
Thanks.

please can someone elaborate which of the new crm modules provides the closest similarity to the old crm_case table

thanks

all of these new modules are lacking the E-Mail capabilities known from V5

thanks

I found Add notes and Send EMail on the "history tab" (if it exists) but both do nothing

+1.

The 'Extra addons' is currently not a focus of developments.
We will consider these modules after the release and when needed really.
Thanks.

I'll need addons-extra/account_report but this doesn't seem to be supported yet, while it's confusing to have addons/account_reporting, addons-extra/account_reporting and addons-extra/account_report. I don't really know if I should use addons/account_reporting instead of addons-extra/account_report? Please shed some lights.
