Clone button
In opportunitues, you have a "clone with Products" and a "clone without products".
This creates a new opportunity with the same opp and products data.
What if I want to clone button, but the result is another custom object (invoice) with "opp clone with products" as the details.
How would I go abt doing this?
1. Create the invoice custom object with all opp fields. Can I set products as detail of invoice so that I can copy the products too?
2. Create a vf page with extension of opportunity standard controller. In the extension, how do I get the process the clone logic?
Please help. Thank you

has an example of clone with products (all the apex code you need), it's un-managed so you can install it in your DE org and copy what you need.
Thanks Ron. That was what i was looking for.
Also, I wrote a simple apex class to just see how this is done. It doesn't copy the detail records, but can be extended. This is what I wrote.
public class cloneclass { private final ApexPages.StandardController cloneclassEx; public cloneclass(ApexPages.StandardController stdController) { cloneclassEx = stdController; } public PageReference autoRun(){ //first get the opportunity we are cloning Opportunity thisOpp = [select id, Name, Amount, Description, CloseDate, AccountId from Opportunity where Id = :cloneclassEx.getId()]; if(thisOpp.id==null) return null; Sales_Invoice__c inv = new Sales_Invoice__c(); inv.Amount__c = thisopp.Amount; inv.Close_Date__c = thisopp.CloseDate; inv.Description__c = thisopp.Description; inv.Account__c = thisopp.AccountId; inv.Name = thisopp.Name; insert inv; PageReference retpage = new PageReference('/'+inv.id); retpage.setRedirect(true); return retpage; } }
In opportunities, the clone button drops down to "clone with products" and "clone without products". Is there a way ot mimic this drop down? I remember seeing this in one of the tutorials in dreamforce but cant seem to find it.
And your webinar yesterday was awesome!
