Hybris backoffice customization

Scenario:

I want to hide Time Created and other fields from Title item type create wizard.

---

Solution:

Since, Title type doesn't have create-wizard component declared, So generic Item type create-wizard will be picked.

To declare it in running system

• Open backoffice with admin user.
• Open Application Orchestrator by pressing F4 key.
• Click on Hybris symbol Y (Top right corner) and select show cockpit-config.xml
• Scroll down to last line in XML(ctr+end)
• Past the below XML code just before tag
• Click on store and save the file
• Press F4 again to close the Application Orchestrator
• Test your changes

XML

<context type="Title" component="create-wizard" module="platformbackoffice">
<wz:flow xmlns:wz="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/config/wizard-config" xmlns:advanced-search="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/config/advancedsearch" xmlns:df="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/component/dynamicForms" xmlns:dsb="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/config/dashboard" xmlns:editorArea="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/component/editorArea" xmlns:explorer-tree="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/config/explorertree" xmlns:list-view="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/component/listView" xmlns:simple-search="http://www.hybris.com/cockpitng/config/simplesearch" xmlns:y="http://www.hybris.com/cockpit/config/hybris" id="TitleWizard" title="create.title(ctx.TYPE_CODE)">
  <wz:prepare id="titlePrepare">

  </wz:prepare>
  <wz:step id="step1" sublabel="Create a new Title">
    <wz:content id="step1.content">
      <wz:property-list root="newTitle">
        <wz:property qualifier="code" type="java.lang.String"/>
      </wz:property-list>
    </wz:content>
    <wz:navigation id="step1.navigation">
        <wz:cancel/>
        <wz:done visible="!#empty(newTitle.code)">
            <wz:save property="newTitle"/>
        </wz:done>
    </wz:navigation>
   </wz:step>
</wz:flow>
</context>

To persist this permanently, you need to declare it in you custom backoffice extension(create it if you don't have one) and past the below code in your *-backoffice-config.xml file.

<context type="Title" component="create-wizard">
<wz:flow id="TitleWizard" title="create.title(ctx.TYPE_CODE)">
  <wz:prepare id="titlePrepare">
    <wz:initialize property="newTitle" type="ctx.TYPE_CODE"/>
        </wz:prepare>
  <wz:step id="step1" sublabel="Create a Title">
    <wz:content id="step1.content">
      <wz:property-list root="newTitle">
        <wz:property qualifier="code" type="java.lang.String"/>

                </wz:property-list>
            </wz:content>
    <wz:navigation id="step1.navigation">
      <wz:cancel/>
      <wz:done>
        <wz:save property="newTitle"/>
                </wz:done>
            </wz:navigation>
        </wz:step>
    </wz:flow>
</context>
