==Sharing Online Services== | |||
Starting with RangerMSP 5.4 you can easily share Online Services with other RangerMSP users, using a dedicated forum. | |||
Each of the shared Online Services can be exported to a file, and uploaded to a community sharing forum, so other users can download it and use in RangerMSP. | |||
By sharing your work you’ll help other members, and you’ll enjoy other members work. This can save you tremendous amount of time as you can take advantage of a lot of work already invested by other users creating templates which may be very well-suited for your needs. All Online Services can then be further adjusted like any other Activity Template, to fit your specific requirements. | |||
For further instructions on how to export and import Online Services, refer to the Activity Templates Sharing Center forum ( [http://{{SERVERNAME}}/forum/showthread.php?t=1558 Enter Online Services Sharing Center].) | |||

RangerMSP's Online Services is a powerful feature which allows you to link to web sites (URL) and activate the web application using parameters taken from RangerMSP.
You can define as many online Services as you wish. This feature is available for the following entities: Accounts, Tickets, Assets, Items, Contracts, Knowledge Base Articles and Opportunities.
- Accounts window
- Tickets window
- Dispatcher window
- Asset window
- Items window
- Contracts window
- Opportunities window
What can I use Online Services for?
Wouldn't you like your technicians to be able to find an address for a scheduled visit with just a single click? You can do this by defining an Online Service which will open maps site (e.g. Google Maps, Yahoo! Maps etc.) and the map will open automatically on the address of the Account or Contact stored in RangerMSP.
This powerful tool allows you to define any URL and open it with parameters. You can basically do with it whatever you want.
Adding new Online Services
To define a new Online Service, Open the Online Services Management window from Settings > Online Services. or click the Online Services icon from the Accounts window toolbar. Click the New button to add a new Online Service and enter the following parameters:
- Name - The name of the service which will be displayed in the Online Services list and menus throughout the system, for example, "Google Maps".
- Base URL - The URL you wish to open in order to use the Service. This is the address of the main service (before passing any parameters to it), for example http://maps.google.com/maps.
- URL Parameters - Parameters which will be appended to the URL in order to create specific queries when opening the URL. These parameters can be RangerMSP Account database fields which will be taken and filled from RangerMSP when clicking the Online Service.
See the Tips & Tricks for examples of useful Online Services
Activating Online Services
Online Services can be activated from various places in RangerMSP including:
- The Account, Ticket, Asset, Item, Opportunity, Contract, Knowledge Base Article windows - click the Online Services icon to activate the service for the selected account
- The Dispatcher Windows - right-click on a selected Ticket to run any Online Service for the Ticket's Account or Contact (such as displaying a map).
- The Calendar / Scheduled Appointments views - right-click above an Appointment and select Online Services.
- The secondary Contacts tab - select a Contact, right-click and select Online Services
- Selection field - anywhere where the entity selection field is displayed - right-click and select Online Services, activate Online Services.
- Secondary Contact selection field - right-click and select Online Services.
- The Relations tab under Account - right-click and select Online Services.
Sharing Online Services
Starting with RangerMSP 5.4 you can easily share Online Services with other RangerMSP users, using a dedicated forum.
Each of the shared Online Services can be exported to a file, and uploaded to a community sharing forum, so other users can download it and use in RangerMSP.
By sharing your work you’ll help other members, and you’ll enjoy other members work. This can save you tremendous amount of time as you can take advantage of a lot of work already invested by other users creating templates which may be very well-suited for your needs. All Online Services can then be further adjusted like any other Activity Template, to fit your specific requirements.
For further instructions on how to export and import Online Services, refer to the Activity Templates Sharing Center forum ( Enter Online Services Sharing Center.)
Possible Usage
- Online Services and Assets – Access your MSP product online and pass the Asset ID to display its details from your external system
- Online Services and Items – Search for better prices for items by passing specific item information directly from within RangerMSP.
- Online Services for Assets – Search for a specific product review by its hardware serial number.
- Online Services for Tickets – Search in online knowledge bases for solutions based on the ticket description
- Selection field - anywhere where the entity selection field is displayed - right-click and select Online Services, activate Online Services.
Using Lookup Fields
Lookup Fields can be used in order to pass parameters from an entity which is linked to the entity you are currently using. For example, you can create an Online Service for a Ticket, and pass the address of the account which is linked to the ticket.
This way you can define an Online Service for the Ticket, which will be activated from the Ticket window and will be using Account information.
Lookup Field syntax:
<CMTLBLDATA_FLDTKTCARDID_FLDCRDADDRESS1>
Where:
CMTLBLDATA_FLDTKTCARDID is the pointer to the linked account
FLDCRDADDRESS1 is the account's Address field
See usage example in Finding Account Address From Ticket.

Lookup Fields
- Lookup Fields can be used in order to pass parameters from an entity which is linked to the entity you are currently using. For example, you can create an Online Service for a Ticket, and pass the address of the account which is linked to the ticket.
This way you can define an Online Service for the Account, which will be activated from the Ticket window.
Lookup Field syntax:
<CMTLBLDATA_FLDTKTCARDID_FLDCRDADDRESS1>
Where:
CMTLBLDATA_FLDTKTCARDID is the pointer to the linked account
FLDCRDADDRESS1 is the account's Address field
