Hi,

 

Please try the below code. This will display the complete Account details with the related lists. You can modify as its is required.

 

--VF Code
<apex:page controller="TopAccountController" sidebar="false">
    <apex:sectionHeader title="Top 10 Accounts"/> 
    <apex:dynamicComponent componentValue="{!tabbedView}"/><br/><br/>
</apex:page>


--Controller
public class TopAccountController {
 
    private List<Account> topAccounts;
    public String tabbedView {  set; }
    public TopAccountController (){
        topAccounts = [SELECT Name,AccountNumber,Site,
                AccountSource,AnnualRevenue,
                Industry,Phone,Type FROM Account LIMIT 6]; 
    }
 
    public Component.Apex.TabPanel getTabbedView(){
        Component.Apex.TabPanel panel = new Component.Apex.TabPanel(
                                                       switchType = 'client',
                                                       title = 'Top 10 Accounts');
        String lastAccountId;
    
        for (Integer i = 0; i< topAccounts.size(); i++){
            Account o = topAccounts[i];
            
            if (lastAccountId != o.Id){
                Component.Apex.Tab acctTab = new Component.Apex.Tab();
                acctTab.label = o.Name;
                Component.Apex.detail rl = new Component.Apex.detail();
                system.debug('Before RL');
                rl.subject=o.Id;
                rl.relatedList = TRUE;
                rl.title = false;
                acctTab.childcomponents.add(rl);
                system.debug('After RL');
                panel.childComponents.add(acctTab);

            }   

          /*  Component.Apex.OutputText oppText = new Component.Apex.OutputText(escape = false);
            oppText.value = '';
            
            if (lastAccountId != o.Id){
                oppText.value += '<table class="customT"><thead class="customT"><tr class="customT"><th class="customT">Account Number</th><th class="customT">Company Name</th><th class="customT">Type</th><th class="customT">Industry</th><th class="customT">Phone No.</th><th class="customT">Expected Revenue</th></tr><tBody class="customT"></thead><tBody class="customT">';
            }
 
            oppText.value += '<tr><td class="customT">' + o.AccountNumber + '</td>';
            oppText.value += '<td class="customT">' + o.Type + '</td>';
            oppText.value += '<td class="customT">' + o.Industry + '</td>';
            oppText.value += '<td class="customT">' + o.Phone + '</td>';
            oppText.value += '<td class="customT">' + o.AnnualRevenue + '</td>';
            oppText.value += '</tr>';            
 
            if ( (i == topAccounts.size() -1) || o.Id != topAccounts[i+1].Id ){
                 oppText.value += '</tBody></table>';     
            } 
 
            panel.childComponents.get(panel.childComponents.size() -1 ).childComponents.add(oppText); 
            lastAccountId = o.Id; */
        }
        return panel;
    }

}

Hi,

 

Please try the below code, this is just for your understanding on how to display the details in tab. You can enhance it based on your requirement.

 

<apex:page standardController="Account">
<apex:tabPanel >
<apex:tab label="TAB1">
<apex:detail subject="{!Account.ID}" relatedList="false" title="false"/> 
</apex:tab>
<apex:tab label="TAB2">
<apex:detail subject="{!account.ownerId}" relatedList="false" title="false"/> 
</apex:tab>
</apex:tabPanel>
</apex:page>

Hi,

 

In my example code i have provided the related list as false, you can have it true and check once. Also your requirement is to show the Account details in tab or the related lists in tab, i.e, if you have account 1,2,3 should you display the accounts as tabs or on clicking the Account 1, the related lists Contacts, Opportunities should be displayed in tab. If this is your requirement, please check if this helps http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Tabbed_Accounts_in_30_seconds

 

 

Thanks,

Thanks Aravind

My requirement is to display the account as tabs . For Eg : if i have 3 accounts say A,B,C
I must get Account A as a separate tab and its corresponding details and its related list under the same tab
and Account B as a separate tab and so on ...

 

In my code i'm able to get that account as tabs but i'm not able to get the detail component inside the tab dynamically
Thanks in Advance
