Multiple sets of Screens from one entity

Support
#1

Hello CUBA team,

I’m having trouble finding information for an issue I’m experiencing.

I have an entity ‘Job’. The screens for this entity show all jobs that are not of status ‘Closed’. I need to create another set of screens for jobs that are only of status ‘Closed’, for historical reference. The editor for closed jobs has mostly disabled fields and a few other differences.

The problem I’m coming up against is that the Closed Job browser opens the Job editor, not the Closed Job editor, and I can’t seem to find a setting to get this to work correctly. I’m probably setting it up incorrectly. This is how I set the new set of screens up:

In this case, I tried changing the Package Name to something that doesn’t exist, hoping that it would isolate these screens into a separate folder, but I’m not having any luck.

I’d love some help in this.

Thanks in advance!

Just wondering if someone has a solution for this issue, as I’m coming up blank. Thanks!

I haven’t been able to figure out how to do this. I’ve searched the Developer Manual and haven’t found the solution.

While I don’t have a solution for you, I’m pretty sure the issue is that the closed job browser, when you click edit or create, calls the default editor for jobs, which would be the original job editor. You’ll need to look into altering the button and/or action in the closed job browser to call a different editor to get your desired behavior.

Hope that helps a little as to where to start looking/tinkering.
