Hello Everyone,
A Custom function is a user-written set of code to achieve a specific requirement. Set the required conditions needed as when to trigger using the Workflow rules (be it Tasks / Project) and associate the custom function to it.
Requirement:
One of our customers has two date fields and is currently using a formula field to calculate the number of days between them. As per design, the default formula field includes weekends and holidays in the day count. However, the customer does not want weekends and holidays to be included in the calculation. This requirement was successfully achieved using Custom Functions along with Workflow rules.
Custom function code:
portalInfo = invokeurl
[
type :GET
connection:"XXXXX"
];
holidays = portalInfo.get("portals").get(0).get("settings").get("holidays");
holidayList = List();
for each holiday in holidays
{
holidayList.add(holiday.get("date").toDate());
}
workingDaysList = date1.workDaysList(date2,{"Saturday","Sunday"},holidayList);
info "workingDaysList : " + workingDaysList.size();
param = Map();
param.put("days_between",workingDaysList.size());
updateProject = invokeurl
[
type :PATCH
parameters:param.toString()
connection:"XXXXX"
];
info "updateProject : "+updateProject;
return "success";
Make sure to replace XXXXX with Zoho Projects connection link name along with scopes: ZohoProjects.portals.READ, ZohoProjects.projects.UPDATE. Please find the screenshot of the list of parameters to be mapped for reference.
