WODA: FAQs

 Data Management

Can I be notified by email when the records are changed?
I really doesn't understand why everyone has problem with Email notification of new records. No need for a patch or a special function. Woda has everything built-in.

So, this is a step by step How-To:

1) Add a special field in your table, like this:
$x='status'; # ------------------------------
$WBF{$x,srt}=$i--;
$WBF{$x} = '1;';
$WBF{$x,'type'} = 'OPTION';
$WBF{$x,'typePar'} = 'RADIO';
$WBF{$x,'options'} = 'yes|no';
$WBF{$x,'d'} = 'no';
$WBF{$x,'modifies'}='admin';
$WBF{$x,'sees'}='admin';

Add a filter to prevent new records to be found before admin valid it:
$WBB{'filter'}= <<'END';
guest {status} ne "no"
END

2) Add a record in your db
3) Login as admin (or any group define in the modifies and sees field above)
4) perform this search: {status} eq "yes"
5) Click on Angie (the Agent icon)
6) In the AgentAddForm, click in the checkbox for every days, add your email, etc.
7) on Unix: add the job in your crontab file
on WinDos: I can't remember the names, but there are various utilties you can use for processing the agent request every day

Hope this help
