While I have made accounts not a requirement in general, when we try to input a new opportunity, an account is required. I can’t figure out how to remove this as a requirement (it has a red * next to it). I figured it was in studio, but while I have found the fields there, the idea of it being required is not an option.
And while we’re at it - is there any way to add contacts to the field, so an opportunity can be related to a contact (especially a contact not associated with an account) ?
Hi there,
You would need to add a ‘relationship’ from opportunities to contacts(one to many or many to many).
In terms of making accounts non-required, see if this link helps.
this link helps.
Kind Regards,
Will.
I have that line in config.php but NOT config_override.php - thanks, that worked!
Will,
The link is broken. Can you please post the content by any chance if you have it?
By default, Sugar requires the accounts field to be populated on several modules. These modules include
Opportunities
Contacts
Cases
In order to remove this dependency, you will need to modify the require_accounts configuration in your ./config_override.php.
$sugar_config['require_accounts'] = false;best regards
Is adding “$sugar_config[‘require_accounts’] = false;” to config_override.php still the solution? It doesn’t seem to do anything for me.
Yes it works! I’ve just tested on v 7.10.7. But watch out! You should add $sugar_config[‘require_accounts’] = false; and then Repair.
It seems to not work anymore with v7.11.2
Cant import opportunity Cause of this account_name fields 
I tried the following steps and it worked:
$sugar_config['require_accounts'] = false;Great! It work 
This worked in terms of adding new Opportunities. However, I am still getting an “Account Name required” error when importing a csv.
Any ideas? TIA
