Implementation of Automatic Custom Table Registration in Redmine when Creating New Requests

[andresgarcia0313]

Description:
Objective: I am requesting the integration of a feature into the Custom Tables plugin for Redmine that allows for the automatic association and configuration of custom tables at the time of creating a new request, rather than having to configure these tables after the case has been created.

Context: Currently, in Redmine, custom tables associated with a case must be manually configured after the request has been created. This process adds additional workload and increases the likelihood of human errors, as table configurations might be forgotten or incorrectly set.

Specific Requirements:

Pre-Configuration of Tables:

When creating a new request type in Redmine, the administrator should have the ability to predefine which custom tables will be automatically associated with that request type.
This configuration should include all necessary parameters and structures to ensure that the tables are ready for immediate use once the request is created.
Automatic Registration:

During the creation of a new request, there should be a mechanism to automatically configure the associated custom tables based on the pre-set configuration by the administrator.
This functionality should be transparent to the user, requiring no additional steps or manual interventions.
Flexibility and Customization:

The system should allow for the editing or modification of automatically configured tables after the request has been created if specific adjustments are necessary.
Additionally, there should be an option to disable automatic table association for specific cases, maintaining flexibility in the workflow.
User-Friendly Interface:

The configuration interface for administrators should be clear and easy to use, allowing for the simple and straightforward definition and association of custom tables.
It is important that end-users perceive this functionality as an enhancement to their workflow, minimizing any learning curve.
Benefits:

Error Reduction: Automating the association of custom tables will decrease the likelihood of errors in request configuration.
Increased Efficiency: This feature will streamline the request creation process, saving time and effort for both users and administrators.
Improved Information Management: With tables properly configured from the start, information associated with each request will be more consistent and complete.
Expected Impact: This improvement will not only enhance user satisfaction but also strengthen the functionality of the Custom Tables plugin, making it more robust and adaptable to different organizational needs. The more efficient workflow and reduced error margin will result in a more reliable and agile system.

Note: I appreciate your consideration of this request and am available to provide any additional clarifications needed for the successful implementation of this enhancement. Thank you for your attention and commitment! 😊🚀
