Finding inactive contractors
Sales managers often need to find contractors that have been inactive for a while. Assume you need to create the following rule: changing contractor fields (description, phone, email) must be considered activity with the contractor. Adding a comment, deal, call, mail or meeting is also considered activity.
This task includes two steps.
- Create listeners of changes in the contractor and linked objects, listed above. For this, use a special field - Date and time of last activity (LastDateTime).
- Create a filter for displaying inactive contractors.
Listeners are triggered when actions with the database are performed. We are interested in changes in lists (phones, email, comments) and objects (contractor, deal). The result of listening is a declared field LastDateTime with the current date and time.
Create the Listeners object, open its Scripts tab, add a script with the following namespaces:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using EleWise.ELMA.Common.Models;
using EleWise.ELMA.ComponentModel;
using EleWise.ELMA.ConfigurationModel;

using NHibernate.Event;And code:

}
}
}1. Publish the object and restart the server. Add a comment to the contractor, so that the LastDateTime got filled in.
2. Create a filter for searching contractors without activities for the last two weeks.
Open advanced search, select EQL and add the following query:
(NOT LastActiveTime in RelativeDateTime(’-2w’, ’0w’)) OR (LastActiveTime is NULL)
The search should find all the contractors that have been unchanged for two weeks.
You can create a filter to track activity with contractors for the current day:
LastActiveTime >= DateTime(’Today’)
