So basically what I need is a dialog which helps me to enter from date, to date and reason for the leave. I have created a new dialog and created a new jsf page containing fields what I need. I would like to know how can I enter the details which are entered in these fields into the underlying database. I know that Alfresco is using Hibernate to communicate with the DB. I couldn't find a way to do that in any of the tutorials which I followed. And while customizing the meta-data of documents I found that I can create new properties (meta-data) for a document by creating a new model file and add the properties which I need in &lt;type/&gt; tag. So It was not required to touch any of the hibernate file to enter those fields to the DB. How can I accomplish this in my requirement. kindly provide some help.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks in Advance,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Jayakrishnan S</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 06 Dec 2010 06:07:23 GMT jayakrishnan_sa 2010-12-06T06:07:23Z Re: Alfresco Customization https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/re-alfresco-customization/m-p/265627#M218757 Hi,I need to create a new leave application form in Alfresco.

But those pages are mentioning about adding new meta-data and aspects which can be added after creating a document. What I need is to make a dialog, add my details (Leave application) and finally make a doc regarding that just like what we do for creating a new document. Can you tell me where I should start? </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Jayakrishnan S</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 07 Dec 2010 10:42:38 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/re-alfresco-customization/m-p/265630#M218760 jayakrishnan_sa 2010-12-07T10:42:38Z Re: Alfresco Customization https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/re-alfresco-customization/m-p/265631#M218761 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Good point, this page contains links to several other wiki pages that show adding new dialogs, customising wizards etc: </SPAN><A href="http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Client_Customisation_Guide" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Client_Customisation_Guide</A></BODY></HTML> Tue, 07 Dec 2010 22:39:37 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/re-alfresco-customization/m-p/265631#M218761 gavinc 2010-12-07T22:39:37Z Re: Alfresco Customization https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/re-alfresco-customization/m-p/265632#M218762 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Can I ask a question in the wrong topic, but still hoping for an answer.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Whats API Alfresco has?</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I want to connect my project to them.
