Aidan Keenan How to relate a standardcontroller to a custom object
How do I relate a standardcontroller to a custom object on a visual force page
<apex:page standardController="ts2__Placement__c" showHeader="false" sidebar="false">
<p>You are viewing the {!ts2__Placement__c.name} record .</p>
Sample Encrypted Bank Account: <apex:outputField value="{!ts2__Placement__c.Sample_Bank_Acc__c}" /><br />
</apex:page>
I am getting a error saying I cannot use the custom object on the visualforce page when I try to do this.
<apex:page standardController="ts2__Placement__c" showHeader="false" sidebar="false">
<p>You are viewing the {!ts2__Placement__c.name} record .</p>
Sample Encrypted Bank Account: <apex:outputField value="{!ts2__Placement__c.Sample_Bank_Acc__c}" /><br />
</apex:page>
I am getting a error saying I cannot use the custom object on the visualforce page when I try to do this.
This is actually the correct way to call a standard controller of a custom object - I've tried the same code on my test ORG and it works - where are you using this visualforce page? Did you try passing the ID of the ts2__Placement__c record in the url? A screen shot of the error message would help here.
Thanks for the reply. What I am trying to do is send an encrypted custom field in a visualforce e mail template to payroll when a new placement is made. Because encrypted custom field are masked in an e mail template. I am trying the workaround where I create a visualforce page which does decrypt the custom field.Then using an iframe to insert this into the e mail template. My problem is on the e mail template I am using
Encrypted Account Number: <apex:outputText value="{!relatedTo.ts2__Employee__r.Sample_Bank_Acc__c}"/>
This brings me back the bank account number encrypted. I want to use pull this value ont a visualforce page but can not use the relatedTo attribute as it is only for e mail templates?
So my page is now working
<apex:page standardController="ts2__Placement__c" showHeader="false" sidebar="false">
<p>You are viewing the {!ts2__Placement__c.name} record .</p>
Sample Encrypted Bank Account: <apex:outputField value="{!ts2__Placement__c.ts2__Employee__r.Sample_Bank_Acc__c}" /><br />
</apex:page>
This is calling the encrypted field from the placement relating it to the Contact object where the encrypted field is located.
However when I call the iframe on the e mail template I do not know how to relate it the record.
<apex:iframe src="/apex/testEncrypted2?id=a0zZ0000001SGeM" scrolling="true" id="theIframe"/>
I have hard coded the a0zZ0000001SGeM for testing. This is showing the bank accuount decrypted but obviously I can not hard code this so I need to know how to relate the visualforce page to the particular placement ID. I have tried
<apex:iframe src="/apex/testEncrypted2?id={!ts2__Placement__c.Id}" scrolling="true" id="theIframe"/>
But this is giving me a error message saying that this is an invalid ID. Is there a way similar to relatedTo that I am using in the e mail template that I can place where id= in the iframe that will get the right record for me.
