Archon Is this possible with Ajax
Hello,
My company is using Enterprise edition with the partner portal for affiliate sales people. As I understand it, Apex is not an option with the version we are using, so I'm thinking maybe Ajax is an option.
Basically, we want a list of activities to be shown through a tab named Activities. I have created a custom object and defined a tab for it. This works great. What I would like to do now, is on the save event for an activity, create a record in my custom object that can be listed in my custom tab.
I've seen that I can do this with triggers, however this isn't an option with my version. Is there any other way of doing this?
The only reason I am doing this is because the activities tab isn't an option for partner portal. Our sales people work off of followup phone calls and scheduling appointments. Just having a list of leads is not too useful to them.

Code:
<script src="/soap/ajax/10.0/connection.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript"> try { if({!Not(Task.Is_Copied__c)}) { Task = new sforce.SObject("Task") Task["Id"] = "{!Task.Id}" Task["Is_Copied__c"] = true CustomTask__c = new sforce.SObject("CustomTask__c") CustomTask__c["Date"] = new Date("{!Task.ActivityDate}") CustomTask__c["Subject"] = "{!Task.Subject}" sforce.connection.create([CustomTask__c]) sforce.connection.update([Task]) } } catch(e) { // Assuming permissions are okay, shouldn't get here. alert("There was an error processing this request:\n\n"+e) } </script>I create the new record before updating so that I prevent the task from being marked as copied before it actually is.Although a "safer" version would be one that required a user to click on the button so their browser doesn't freeze unexpectedly while it performs the operation or possibly cancels the script half-way through.
