User Interface for Case Configuration
March 22, 2011, 12:51:05 am
Hi all,
the current configuring of Case Types with xml works fine, but is a bit cumbersome for end users. We currently have a project where superusers want to be able to set up their own case types, so I thought about developing a user interface for it. That would mean that you get an interface were the activity types, roles (relationship types), timelines etc. are set. The UI then creates whatever is required in activity types and relationship types using the API and creates the required xml files.
For the moment I would just like to know if there are more CiviCRM users interested in something like that? If so, would you be able to fund part of the development?

obviously, there is no other way  ;D
although I guess it would be api('CaseType', 'Create')
